Andreas Johansson dagizhe:> Reminds me; how can a labiodental fricative possibly be labialized?In Russian *all* consonants are strongly labialized before /u/, so one can compare initial sounds in _fára_ ["far@] 'headlight' and _fúga_ ["fug@] 'fugue'. The latter definitely has smth like [f_w]. Surely, the difference is not phonemic... ~~~~~~Yitzik~~~~~~
