=====Diminutives===== | =====Diminutives===== | ||
Diminutives are formed by changing the root’s rightmost possible consonant into its corresponding fricative or affricate according to the chart below. '''X''' indicates that the phoneme does not have a possible fricativized variant, e.g. '''p'''=>'''X''', since '''/f/''' is lacking in Rówok. In this event the next rightmost consonant is fricativized. As roots themselves do not feature phonemic fricatives or affricates, the base letters/sounds in the chart below are missing some of the normal [[#Consonants|consonant inventory]], including the entire row for trills and affricates, as the only trill in is found as a gradient of '''/r/''' => '''/r̝/''', and the only affricate as a gradient of '''/k/''' => '''/tʃ/'''. Note also that '''/l/''' grades to '''/r/''', though this sensu stricto is not an (af)fricativizing process. | Diminutives are formed by changing the root’s rightmost possible consonant into its corresponding fricative or affricate according to the chart below.
