''This is a slightly altered continuation of the earlier East Germanic Glide Insertion rule; the rule remains persistent throughout Gutish grammar. | |||

∅ → j / V[-bck,-low]___+V<br /> | |||
∅ → w / V[+bck,-low]___+V | |||
</big> | |||
/j/ is inserted between two vowels, the first of which is a non-low front vowel (e,ē,i,ī). | |||
/w/ is inserted between two vowels, the first of which is a non-low back vowel (o,ō,u,ū). | |||
E.g. | |||
''ija'' ‘her’ + Short Vowel Lengthening → /īa/ + Glide Insertion → īja → (''ev.'') /aija/ ''īja'' | |||
''rauan'' /rɔ̄an/ ‘to row’ + Long Vowel Raising → /rōan/ + Glide Insertion → /rōwan/ (''ev.'') /rōn/ ''rǭn'' | |||
