The English phrase green peas contains two instances of the long vowel /iː/ (the first in green, the second in peas), only the second of which is respected in this Japanese transcription as a proper long vowel. This has been cited as an example of what is called by American linguist Julie Beth Lovins \"prenasal vowel shortening\", the shortening of a long vowel or diphthong before the nasal ン, which reflects a tendency of Japanese to avoid a superheavy syllables with three or more morae introduced by loanwords. In this case, such form as リーン would, by the typical definition, be a single syllable with three morae (both the lengthening ー and the nasal ン are morae that cannot form distinct syllables on their own), which necessitates the shortening of the vowel to reduce the syllable's weight.
