Description | The topic of the paper is the question of how the Old Indo-Aryan (OIA) voiceless aspirates become an integral part of a system based on the oppositions of /voice/ and /aspiration/, or more precisely, how an original Indo-European ternary system became a stable quaternary system in Indo-Aryan. |
