Description
Summary:The present paper discusses from a diachronic standpoint the realizations of Old Arabic */g/ in the various Maghrebi dialects. It covers the following issues: reflexes of Old Arabic */g/, phonetically conditioned shifts involving /g/ and /ž/, discussion and conclusions. The remaining part of the study is devoted to a presentation and discussion of evidences suggesting that affricate /g/ was formerly more widespread among first-layer dialects.
