Lexurgy LSC

This document defines phonological features and classes that are used to describe the sound changes that occur from Vulgar Dalmata to Protodalmata. It defines features like stress, weight, length, and classes for vowels, consonants, syllables and elements. It then lists sound change rules for each stage including h-loss, compensatory lengthening, diphthongization, palatalization, develarization and others to derive Protodalmata from Vulgar Dalmata.
