Modern Gallaecian features, as other Celtic languages, a word-initial consonantal mutation system. While there is some evidence that other Continental Celtic languages such as Gaulish might have evolved mutation,[1] it is impossible to ascertain whether Gallaecian would too.
Soft mutation (bucoscaso)
The so-called soft mutation affects plosive consonants.

Environments
- Feminine nouns of either number in the direct case after the definite article: bea → em vea, terba → em derbas.
- Singular masculine nouns in the locative case after the definite article: torhedo → en dorreide.
- After singular possessive pronouns, that is, mo ‘my’, to ‘your’, and so ‘his/her/its’: queno → mo gueno, pá → to bá, gaña → so haña.
