Although many languages have only one non-close, non-open front vowel, there is no predisposition for it being mid. [[Igbo language|Igbo]], for example, has a close-mid {{IPA|[e]}}, whereas [[Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]] has an open-mid {{IPA|[ɛ]}} even though these languages don't contrast said vowels with another front mid vowel.
