Phonological and Morphological Developments in Gaelic
From Celtic Languages
Jump to navigationJump to search
This page aims to explore various phonological and morphological developments across dialects of Modern Gaelic, and the historical structures whence they derive. In particular, the focus will often be on features of obscure interest where information in the academic realm is quite limited. Academic sources with such information will be referenced and presented in a bibliography under each relevant section.
The plan is to include the following features and even more over time:
- A Historical Representation of the Gaelic Article
- A Diachronic Overview of Gaoidhealg and Its Variants
- Vocative Inflections in Classical Gaelic
- Dual Inflections in Classical Gaelic
- Gaelic Plosive VOT and the Historical Development of Eclipsis
- Modern Reflexes of Medieval Vowels
- Consonant Clusters with Sonorants
- Unlenited Sonorants in Coda
- Proclitic Depalatalisation
- Forms with Vowel Hiatus
- Future/Conditional Verbal Morphology
