En réponse à James Campbell <james@hidden.email>: > > Fascinating. Thanks for that! The sound changes look interesting. Does > anyone have any info on *Corsican* sound changes? > Basically, from what I know of Corsican and the fact that the Corsicans themselves say that Italian is close to their language, I'd say the Corsican sound changes look like a combination of Sardinian sound changes (-us became -u in Corsican too, and Latin u usually stayed u in Corsican in all positions) and Italian sound changes (c and g - but also quite a few other letters :) - have "hard" and "soft" versions identical to Italian ones for instance) but is much closer to Italian than to Sardinian, grammatically and phonetically speaking (or at least to Central Italian dialects). Unfortunately, I couldn't find much on Corsican on the web :(( Christophe. http://rainbow.conlang.free.fr It takes a straight mind to create a twisted conlang.
