Portuguese term

sonoridade na efetivação

Portuguese to English Science Linguistics loanword adaptation and variation
Conclui-se que a reparação do traço de nasalidade na integração dos empréstimos, ao mesmo tempo em que inova ao adaptar oclusivas como nasais, confirma duas particularidades de Dâw, que são: a preferência da língua por nasais no contexto de vogal nasal e a resistência à mudança de sonoridade na efetivação dos processos fonológicos.


It can be concluded that the repair of the nasal feature in loanword integration simultaneous [[?]] to the innovation of adapting stops as nasals, confirms two process unique to Dâw: the preference for nasals in the context of a nasal vowel, and the resistance to the sonority change in the XXX of the phonological processes.
