@Benwing2 re : even dictionaries that purport to indicate all macrons (Collins Gem) don't indicate this "u" as long. Is there something going on here that I don't understand? This, that and the other (talk) 01:26, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
 * See . This is based on work by Bennett, which is somewhat dated, but it has corrections applied where necessary using research from 1978. I would not trust a mass-market dictionary for this purpose, you want to look at scholarly sources. However, there may be more recent scholarly sources than are indicated on this page; I don't know. Possibly the length should be given as unknown. Benwing2 (talk) 01:41, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
 * @Benwing2 Hah true, Collins Gem has definitely been wrong before. Your linked webpage is inferring the length of the vowel based on Romance evidence from, which is probably as good as we would ever get. Thanks for filling me in! This, that and the other (talk) 01:52, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
