In compounds /θ/ and /ð/ are both written as ⟨dd⟩ while /f/ and /v/ are written as ⟨ff⟩ as both pairs lose voicing distinction and assimilate to the nearest following element. This means that they're realised either voicelessly ([θ] and [f]) or as ([d] and [v]) when followed by a vowel or voiced consonant. E.g. /gwaθ/ ⟨gbhath⟩ → ⟨gbhadd an deir⟩ [gwað‿andeiɾ] | |||
