If I recall, Tagalog, the official language of Winnipeg :), has /tadlo/ for
"three" with a medial -d-. What was the Austronesian reconstruction again? I
would have presumed *taDu where *D = /d./ like in Indian languages. If I
recall it's *Dua for "two" (Tagalog /dalawa/).

 

pAN d'apres Blust :

1    *esa

2    *duSa

3    *telu

4    *Sepat

 

Ceci dit, dans certaines langues ont a bien une retroflexes (*duSa > paiwan drusa), mais le *d du pAN correspond a dj, dr ou z en paiwan, du a des emprunts avec les langues du coins comme le Puyuma.
