28 SOUND SYNTHESIS IN IE, IIR & SANSKRIT
28. IE voiceless stops & s> voiced in IIr before vowels & consonantal secondary vowels (vide 27), along with the original voicing before plosives as in IE (vide 29 below); e.g. IE edot tepi > IE edot-epi, but IIr adat +-epi > IIr
adad-api, cp Skt odad-api. IE dus-tito->IE dus-ito-, but IIr duš tita->IIr
duž-ita-, cp Skt dur-ita-, Av duž-ita-, IB dus + uq" to->1E dus-uq"to-, but IIr duš+ukta
IIr du-ukta-, cp Skt dur-ukta-, Av duž-uktan. IE dus ---weq"es->IE dus-weq"es-, but IIr duš + vacas
>IIr duš-vacas-, cp Skt dur-vacasa, Av dut
vacah-, IE dus +menes->IE dus--menes, but IIr duš+manas
> IIr dur--manas- cp Skt dur-manas, gAv duž--
manah-, 29. In IE the voiceless stops &s > voiced before voiced plosives only, and this is also ir herited in IIr (vido above 13 for illustrations), beside the innovations sbown in 28.
30. IE s +919" followed by a palatal vowel > štc in IIr (i.e. s>š before c) (Vide 27 above); e.g.
IE qWos+quid > IIr kaš-cid > Skt kaś-cit, Av kas: cit, OP kaš-ciy. IE yos-que > IIr yaš-ca > Skt yas-ca, Av yas-ca,
cp Gk hós-te. IE monos-qee > IIr manaš-ca > Skt manas-ca, Av
manas-ca, cp Gk menos-te. 30a. Similarly IE stq*19"h followed by a palatal vowel might have become štch in IIr, but no sure example can be cited.
