Here are some consonant changes that differentiate the two Thad languages: Thadpalmé and Havˁen. Thadpalmé consists of two distinct dialects, based on the development of *d in them (L-palmé, in which '''*d>/l/''', and D-palmé, in which *d>/ð/. Thus, Havˁen is often viewed as H- or HT-palmé based on its outcome of *d). | |||
