the allemañisch alternation is conditioned by this rule: | |||
*diphthongs before /ʔ, s, ŋ/ OR before nasals | |||
*monophthongs otherwise? | |||
what do you think about the alternation rule? | |||
actually i was thinking about making the alternants marginally phonemic (like before consonants that don't alternate) | |||
like /l, x/ | |||
it originally came from the rule "diphthongs in closed syllables, monophthongs in open syllables" (plus diphthongization before /n, s/) | |||
