The accentual hiatus occurs when a stressed closed vowel and an unstressed open vowel are combined in any order (Own, corn). This combination always carries an accent on the closed vowel, regardless of whether it is required by the general rules of accentuation. This occurs even if there is an interleaved ax (owl vehicle).
A hiatus is the meeting of two contiguous vowels within a word, but belonging to different syllables. This can occur in the case of three specific sequences: two different open vowels (a, e, o), two equal open or closed vowels or any combination of closed vowel (i, u) stressed and unstressed open vowel.
It is precisely in the latter case that the accentual hiatus occurs. In this sense, a stressed vowel is one that is pronounced with the greatest intensity or voice force..
This is the core of the stressed syllable (the most prominent in a word). Such is the case of the i in the bisyllable word cold (cold). All other vowels - and all other syllables - are unstressed.

The accentual hiatus breaks the diphthong; that is, it divides the syllable in two. It should be noted that a diphthong is a sequence of two vowels that are pronounced in the same syllable. Instead, the hiatus implies that the contiguous vowels are in different syllables.
Now, the sequences where an accentual hiatus occurs are made up of: aí, eí, oí, aú, eú, oú, ía, íe, ío, úa, úe and úo.
As already mentioned, the letter Ache inserted in these sequences does not prevent the accentual hiatus from occurring. Therefore, this also occurs in there, hey, ohi, ahú, ehú, ohú, íha, íhe, ího, úha, úhe and úho.
Some of these combinations are more common than others. For example, ía can be found in the conjugations of the copreterite of verbs ending in er or ir (knew, ate, persecuted).
The combination oú, on the other hand, is much less common. This can be seen in mohúr (gold coin of ancient English India), noumenon (object of pure rational knowledge) and Finnoúgria (related to the Finns and other Uralic-speaking peoples).
On the other hand, within the expressions of the same sign it is common for a hiatus to become a diphthong and vice versa. Thus, in the word gather there is an accentual hiatus (eú sequence). However, in the word meeting a diphthong occurs.
To exemplify the accentual hiatus, its occurrence in the words of several fragments has been highlighted. Most of these fragments belong to the work The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quijote of La Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes when we have the information. In the case of úe, éu and oú, other reference works were taken.
