Middle Gujarati (AD 1500–1800), split off from Rajasthani, and developed the phonemes ɛ and ɔ, the auxiliary stem ''ch''-, and the possessive marker -''n''-. Major phonological changes characteristic of the transition between Old and Middle Gujarati are: *i, u develop to ə in open syllables *diphthongs əi, əu change to ɛ and ɔ in initial syllables and to e and o elsewhere *əũ develops to ɔ̃ in initial syllables and to ű in final syllables These developments would have grammatical consequences. For example, Old Gujarati's instrumental-locative singular in -i was leveled and eliminated, having become the same as Old Gujarati's nominative/accusative singular in -ə.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Middle Gujarati language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
