| In Russian velarized stops contrast with palatalized ones, and velarization is also contrastive in Irish. |
|
| The view that it is these clusters that palatalized first is supported by Rumanian data. |
|
| Some of the daughter languages have retained the original 'k' sound, whereas others have changed to the palatalized 'ch' sound. |
|
| Elsewhere, when followed by unstressed i and another vowel, t is commonly palatalized to produce the voiceless palato-alveolar fricative sh sound. |
|
| According to some analyses, the lenition of the palatalized consonant is still a part of the palatalization process itself. |
|
| The diphthongs that resulted from the Romance and the Romanian breakings were modified when they occurred after palatalized consonants. |
|
| Palatalization is sometimes unconditioned or spontaneous, not triggered by a palatal or palatalized consonant or front vowel. |
|
| Postal romanization does not show palatalized consonants, reflecting the dialect of the imperial court during the Qing dynasty. |
|
| The palatalized consonants also factor in how unstressed vowels are reduced. |
|
| The shifts are sometimes triggered by a nearby palatal or palatalized consonant or by a high front vowel. |
|
| In some cases, it is triggered by a palatal or palatalized consonant or front vowel, but in other cases, it is not conditioned in any way. |
|
| In the process, stop consonants are often spirantised except for palatalized labials. |
|
| Palatalized and plain consonants do not contrast in words with non-pharyngeal vowels. |
