i'm looking for a typological-diachronic study of stop systems,
specifically to address the following:
(1) the evolution of simple /p,t,k/ systems from systems with more
features: what is the evolutionary pathway to such a simple system?
(2) more on the transition of *l, especially to voiced dental [d] (like
lakota/dakota)
any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a good descriptive grammar of Portuguese (written
in English)?


Thanks in advance,
