=====Sandhi over word boundaries=====
-C_b- > -C_p-, fortition of /b/ → /p/ (devoicing of /b/)
Composite sandhi: obligatory contour and other phenomena.
A case of composite sandhi occurs when the application of an external sandhi rule results in either i) the resetting of or ii) the innovation on an internal sandhi rule.
Examples:
i) Resetting of an internal sandhi rule: external sandhi triggers obligatory contour, resetting internal sandhi.
bengilir > penkilir
1) Internal sandhi: rule -n•k- > -n•g-, lenition of /k/ → /g/ (voicing of /k/)
bV•en•kil•Vr → bēnkilir* > bēngilir
2) External sandhi: rule -C b- > -C p-, fortition of /b/ → /p/ (devoicing of /b/)
(-V bēngilir → -V bēngilir)
-C bēngilir → -C pēngilir* >> -C pēnkilir
ii) Innovation on an internal sandhi rule: external sandhi triggers obligatory contour, leniting a cluster formed through assimilation
bepɯlɯr > pevɯlɯr
1) Internal sandhi: rule -n•v- > -p-, fusion to /p/
bV•en•vɯl•Vr > bepɯlɯr
2) External sandhi: rule -C b- > -C p-, fortition of /b/  /p/ (devoicing of /b/)
