Mi cofaniaunes caraus,
For the sake of (personal) euphony, I have decided that an alveolar
affricate followed by rhotic, when the affricate is not word-
initial, metathesizes the two phonemes.
Thus:
tragrewiaun- [t.ad_Zresjon-] > trargrewion [t.ard_Zesjon]
istrymon[it_Sr1m@n] > irstymon [irt_S1m@n]
([is.t.1m@n] would be spelled /istrymon/) - hmm, I have a problem
here, don't I? Any suggestions, mi cofaniaunes?
Tofyl
