Mutation
- G at the beginning of words is omitted in a soft mutation, mutates to Ng in a nasal mutation and is unchanged in an aspirate mutation, for example with the word gorsaf (“station”):
Welsh mutation | |||
---|---|---|---|
radical | soft | nasal | aspirate |
gorsaf | orsaf | ngorsaf | unchanged |
Note: Some of these forms may be hypothetical. Not every possible mutated form of every word actually occurs. |
