Anatolian evidence suggests that the Indo-European laryngeals h2 and h3 were uvular stops

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: In this article it will be argued that the Indo-European laryngeals *h2 and *h3, which recently have been identified as uvular fricatives, were in fact uvular stops in Proto-Indo-Anatolian. Also in the Proto-Anatolian and Proto-Luwic stages these sounds probably were stops, not fricatives.
