Curious... Until now we have the lost of intervocalic "d", of intervocalic
"b" and later in Romance time lost of intervocalic "g"
The whole serie appears to dissapear due some reasons.. b, d, g;
comparative the p,t,k series which appears to remain there.
Should be just a coincidence the lost of the b d g serie? It appears so but
it remains indeed curious..
