I recall someone (Andreas, I think) a little while ago
wondering about a [tT] affricate, and I just wanted to
say that some Salish languages around here (West coast
of B.C.) have them. Sliammon [slaI&m@n] for example,
has [tT], as well as an ejective counterpart (No
voiced version because no voiced obstruents in
Sliammon). Its other affricates are [tS]
(alveopalatal) and [tK] (lateral), as well as the
ejective versions thereof.
