| I believe these are more Romance changes. in Italian, c /k/ became /tS/ in
| front of front vowels, and I think g became /dZ/ in front of them also (i
| hope i'm right, can anyone correct me if i am incorrect?). Afterall,
| Brithenig IS a romance language.
Not only in Italian, but also in Romanian. Also, <c> before front vowels in Old
English was sometimes pronounced /tS/, other times /k/ (closer to [c] in actual
value).
