phonologicaly you would do it. I did not said for nothing about the
origin of initial "h" in Rom. From my observations I can say just as
follow:
- the "h" is an aspirated "a" (Note !!), an aspirated labial like "v,f,"
and an aspired(?)-velar
I know this sound strange but the paralel forms of the same word show
it. I will give one example for each:
for a:
halice-alice
for b:
holbura- volbura
for f:
hier-fier
for v:
hulpe - vulpe
for g:
hãlãgie - gãlãgie
for k:
hâshii - câshii
If one will request I will show more of these pairs,but for now the
examples given are just as information.I can just see that as very
intriguing and interesting problem but I need some time for a detailed
explanation of what I think about.
Note: I said from an aspirated "a". Here I am not very sure if there is
an aspirated "a" or there something else which became "h" and in time
the forms are paralels living or one of the forms "a-" versus "ha-"
imponed itsel.
The simply way to find out is to see the posible etimology of these
words and one can constate what did happen.
