(grammar, linguistics, phonology) Euphonic nu /ν/ (n). Consonant /ν/ affixed to vowel endings of some Ancient Greek grammatical forms to produce euphony: in prevocalic position, to avoid sounding two vowels in a row (hiatus), and prevent elision or fusion of vowels contracting into one sound (crasis). In preconsonantal coda position, /ν/ may be added to create a long syllable in poetic meter. Nu is also usually written before a pause at the end of a clause in prose or the end of a verse in poetry.

日本語の意味
古代ギリシャ語の文法において、語尾が母音で終わる単語に、音の調和（ユーフォニー）を図るために付加される子音「ν」を指す。 / 前に母音がある場合、二重母音の発音（ヒアトス）を避けるため、また母音の融合（クレイシス）を防ぐ目的で付加される。 / 子音の前に位置する場合、詩の韻律において音節を長くするために加えられる。 / 散文では節末、詩では行末直前に通常書かれる表記上の現象を示す。
