This allows him to formulate previously unrecognised sound changes affecting Proto-Celtic, and assess the competing explanations for other developments. This work has far-reaching consequences for the understanding of the historical phonology and morphology of the Celtic languages, and for etymological work involving the Celtic language, along with implications for Indo-European sound laws and the Indo-European syllable. A major conclusion is that the laryngeals cannot be used to argue for an Italo-Celtic language family.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891093717143,"sku":"9789004225398","price":22014.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004225398.webp?v=1781182350","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-reflexes-of-the-proto-indo-european-laryngeals-in-celtic-9789004225398","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
