Summary

Chapter 6 presents full Proto-Central Chadic lexical reconstructions including both consonants and vowels. It discusses in detail alternative options for the reconstruction of different diachronic vowels from previous research. It presents systematic reconstructions that license the different surface vowels in modern languages, and adds some observations on the status and possible history of glottalisation in certain Central Chadic languages. In great detail, it presents full data and details of 64 lexical reconstructions.
