Sievers' Law and the History of Semivowel Syllabicity in Indo-European and Ancient Greek - Oxford Classical Monographs
Barber, Peter (Departmental Lecturer in Comparative Philology, at the University of Oxford)
This book is an investigation of how semivowels were realised in Indo-European and in early Greek. It examines the extent to which Indo-European *i and *y were independent phonemes, in what respects their alternation was predictable, and how this situation changed as Indo-European developed into Greek.
