Geeze, there's no sound change that I think of that someone else hasn't
already thought of it first :). Actually, that's cool that Jûdajca already
has it :). Of course, i get most of my sound changes from the speech of
people around me.

Italian has "settimana", which leads me to believe that Proto-Romance had
the "pti", but was lost in Portuguese, French, and Spanish, but changed to
"tt" in  Italian.
