<p>The literature on Yucatec Maya reports on a tone lowering of the
initial syllable of a noun in the construction [poss_pronoun N]
mainly if N is inalienable. S. Lehmann 2002, ch. 3.2.1.1.1.4.4.<br>

all,
<br>
<br>
I'm looking for languages, in which alienable and inalienable
possession is marked by the same set (or at least - phonologically
similar) exponents, yet do these exponents undergo different
phonological processes in alienable vs. inalienable possession.
<br>
<br>
In Ojibwe, for example, vowel hiatus is resolved via consonant
epenthesis in alienable possession, but via deletion in
inalienable possession.
<br>
<br>
If anyone knows of more languages of this type, I would be
grateful for references and comments.
<br>
<br>
Best,
