EXCERPT
DIPHTHONGS.
In Marius Victorinus we find diphthongs thus defined:
[Mar. Vict. Gaisford, I. v. 54.] Duae inter se vocales jugatae ac sub unius vocis enuntiatione prolatae syllabam faciunt natura longam, quam Graeci diphthongon vocant, veluti geminae vocis unum sonum, ut +ae+, +oe+, +au+.
And more fully in the following paragraph:
[Mar. Vict. Gaisford, I. v. 6.] Sunt longae naturaliter syllabae, cum duae vocales junguntur, quas syllabas Graeci diphthongos vocant; ut +ae+, +oe+, +au+, +eu+, +ei+: nam illae diphthongi non sunt quae fiunt per vocales loco consonantium positas; ut +ia+, +ie+, +ii+, +io+, +iu+, +va+, +ve+, +vi+, +vo+, +vu+.
