====Liquid | ====Liquid Dissimilation==== | ||
*When two identical liquids occur in the same or adjacent syllables, the right-most liquid changes: l → r → z → l, e.g.: | |||
**bzaukzi → ''bzaukli'' | |||
**graar → ''graaz'' | |||
**brulaaul → ''brulaaur'' | |||
*In words where three liquids appear, all liquids are dissimilated even if a different liquid separates two of the same. This may cause chain shifting in compound words until the order described above can be observed, e.g.: | |||
**bratluir → ''bratluiz'' | |||
**raagraz → raagzaz → ''raagzal'' | |||
**dravglal → ''dravglar'' (but regularization does not wrap, so here, two /r/s are acceptable.) | |||
