Alpine-Agrarian Languages

Copyright © 2004-2021 C.E. by D. Jon Scott


Introduction

The Alpine-Agrarian languages are those dialects of Proto-Paleoboreanic, or those branches of the Palaeoboreanic language family, which underwent voicing of consonants adjascent to back-vowels (Terran languages) and glottal deconsonantalization.




Variant Group A: Onset Voicing in Open Dialects
+ Glottal Deconsonsantalization

In open dialects, the onsets of syllables with back vowels were voiced.
