This wasn't supposed to devolve into an EPT (ooh, ooh, bad pun: 'an EPT' is sort of like 'inept'). I meant simply to provide example of sj (which could stand for a palatised s) > s *and* S. It's hardly my fault if the language I speak is English---for that we have a Captain Cook to thank. -- Tristan <kesuari@...>
