<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:KO">I wonder if anyone is aware of cases where iconicity motivates irregular sound change. I am aware of one such case:
</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Early modern Korean </span>
<span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:"Batang",serif">ㄱㆍ득</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> /kadɨk/ `full' and
</span><span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:"Batang",serif">ㄱㆍㅅ득</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> /kat'ɨk/ `very full', where
</span><span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:"Batang",serif">ㅅㄷ</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> /t'/ of the latter was originally
</span><span lang="ZH-CN" style="font-family:"Batang",serif">ㄷ</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> /d\char`\~t/, which became a fortis consonant due to the symbolic value of fortis consonants that exaggerates the degree of fullness</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:KO">.
Have you studied on such cases, or are you aware of any other study that does?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
