Dear all,
Glottal stops in north Australian languages are phonotactically constrained to only appear in codas; some languages of adjacent Indonesia with glottal stops either show restrictions on their position (Sawu/Hawu: glottal stops cannot begin words) or evidence for repositioning (Palu'e: glottal stops cannot begin a word, and vowels preceding a medial glottal stop show closed-syllable allophones. Does anyone know of anything addressing the position in which glottal stops may appear? I'm not talking about initial epenthetic glottal stops in languages such as Tagalog, but underlying segments that appear to disfavour onset realisations. -Mark Donohue Monash University |
