متن کاملThe morphological basis of paradigm leveling∗
In older stages of Latin, many nouns exhibited paradigmatic s ∼ r alternations created by rhotacism in suffixed forms, as in (1a). In the period immediately before Classical Latin, these s ∼ r alternations were eliminated by extending the r to the nominative form. At approximately the same time, an independent change shortened long vowels before word-final sonorants, resulting in the paradigm i...
