 | | In some forms in which a glottal consonant intervenes between the two vowels underlyingly, the result is the deletion of the glottal stop and epenthesis of a glide: (3) Input Output Gloss a. |  | | I'm currently working on vowel-vowel interactions across glottals, and have found an interesting pattern in some languages in which hiatus resolution-like patterns occur despite the presence of a glottal stop. |  | | I'd appreciate any additional information or references you might have regarding similar patterns cross-linguistically. |

| | LINGUIST List 15.2027: Hiatus Resolution Across Glottals |
 | | Dear Linguists, On 5/18, I submitted a query to Linguist List (Linguist 15.1586) regarding the interaction of vowels across glottals, particularly the tendency of some languages to exhibit hiatus resolution-like patterns across glottals. |  | | The query asked whether any linguists had noticed such patterns in the course of their research. |  | | I received a number of interesting and helpful replies, a summary of which is given below. |

the actual physical production of the sound can be a challenge because of its position in the word. |

 | | This 4-way system is similar to the systems found among Vietic languages, except that the creaky phonation is definitely realised as a glottal restriction during the phonation of the vowel, rather than with the final consonant. |  | | From the perspective of comparative phonology the reconstruction is rather incomplete - unfortunately sources were not yet available that reliably distinguished the 4 registers, and while Headley noted the phenomenon of "prefinal" glottals (as he called them) decided to leave the question "to future linguists". |  | | Phonologically the group is remarkable, showing a 4-way register system that combines both breathy and creaky phonation. |

 | | The North Caucasian languages, quite different from Kartvelian despite sharing phonetic features like glottals, have also been posited to be part of a wide, geographically sporadic family of isolated languages, from Basque to Navaho, but strong evidence for such mop-up classification is still missing. |  | | At a Tbilisi conference on the two cultures, we anticipated hearing evidence for such a link, but, despite provocative paper titles, no comparative linguistic data was presented; right now a specific Basque-Georgian classification would be premature at best. |  | | Some Georgians say their language is closely related to another non-Indo-European language from a rugged part of Eurasia: Basque. |

 | | The term glottal only refers to the nature of its phonation, and does not describe the location of the stricture nor the turbulence. |  | | All consonants except for the glottals, and all vowels, have an individual place of articulation in addition to the state of the glottis. |  | | As with all other consonants, surrounding vowels influence the pronunciation [h], and [h] has sometimes been presented as a voiceless vowel, having the place of articulation of these surrounding vowels. |
