Sællir,

can anyone tell me what happens with a voiced
fricative resulting from Verner's Law when it
occurs after a nasal? My hunch is that
[mB nD NG] were not tolerated, but became
[mb nd Ng] with voiced stops. I'd appreciate
if anyone could provide examples, whichever
way it goes.

    "Maybe" is a strange word. When mum or dad says it
    it means "yes", but when my big brothers say it it
    means "no"!
