Abstract

While etymological nasals in inherited /VN.T/ sequences are normally noted in Hispano-Celtic homoörganically to the heterosyllabic plosive, two other orthographic practices are attested in the corpus: (a) the nasal is not  noted at  all;  (b)  the nasal is  noted heteroörganically  to the plosive. These practices have always been treated as discrete phe- nomena. In this paper, all three practices are united as symptoms of a  single phonological process whose varying outcomes are the product of differences in the timing of the gesture which articulates the place of the nasal.
