Intervocalic /g/ first become /ɣ/ by vocalisation and then omitted, either create new diphthongs or following epenthesis rules:

====Celtic "s" to Galega "x"====
When middle vowels follow high vowels as a result of syncope or after normal sound changes, an /j/(written as /i/) will be inserted:

! Condition
! Middle Galega
! Late Galega
! Examples
|-
|/e/+/a/;/o/;/ɔ/
|rowspan=2|VV
|rowspan=2|VjV
|senos > seo > seio /ˈsejo/ "old" adj.
|-
|/ɛ/+/a/;/o/;/ɔ/

|}
But this change doesn't take place for /o/ and /ɔ/, as abonā > avona > avoa "river" f.
