Abstract

The present paper attempts to focus on the concept of coarticulation in a historical perspective. But in order to do so, first the concept has been viewed in the light of how it is being used in the field of phonetics and phonology today. Reasons have been given for the acceptance of double articulation and secondary articulation as falling under coarticulation but not cases of assimilation. Next, major historical changes that have taken place in the labio?velars and palatals have been discussed in the context of Indo? European languages, and palatals in particularly in the Indo?Aryan language Kashmiri.
