Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 WestGermanic gemination is a sound change that took place in all WestGermaniclanguages , around 300 AD. All single consonants except IPA r original or from earlier IPA z were gemination geminated doubled before IPA j . The second element of the diphthongs iu and au was still underlyingly IPA w at this time and therefore was still considered a consonant, so it was geminated as well. Similar changes occurred in the history of Old Norse , but was much more limited, applying only to IPA k and IPA . The change affected only words with a short root vowel followed by a single consonant, as those with long vowels or with more than one consonant following the root vowel never contained IPA j after the ending consonant IPA j had already been lengthened to IPA ij in these words through a rule known as Sievers law . Following the gemination, all word stems that ended in IPA j except those ending in r were now Syllable weight heavy . This set the stage for the later loss of IPA j following heavy syllables in the individual WestGermaniclanguages. This change particularly affected the infinitives of the first conjugation of Germanic weak verb weak verbs , which ended in IPA i j n , and also the short stemmed ja n and j n stem nouns and adjectives. By historical times c. 800 900 AD , all of the WestGermaniclanguages except Old Saxon had dropped the IPA j in these words, but not before it IPA j had triggered Germanic umlaut i Mutation , as well as palatalization in Old English language Old English and Old Frisian .

One widely accepted analysis, supported by semiticist s like Robert Hetzron and John Huehnergard , divides the Semitic language family into two branches East Semitic languages Eastern and Western. The former consists of the extinct language extinct Eblaite language Eblaite and Akkadian language Akkadian languages, the latter of the majority of Semitic languages. It consists of the clearly defined sub groups Ethiopic languages Ethiopic , South Arabian languages South Arabian , Arabic language Arabic and Northwest Semitic languages Northwest Semitic this including Hebrew language Hebrew , Aramaic language Aramaic and Ugaritic language Ugaritic . The first two, Ethiopic and South Arabian, show particular common features, and are often grouped together as South Semitic languages South Semitic . The correct classification of Arabic with respect to other Semitic languages is debated. In older classifications, it is grouped with the South Semitic languages. However, Hetzron and Huehnergard connect it more closely with the Northwest Semitic languages, to form Central Semitic languages Central Semitic . Some semiticists continue to argue for the older classification based on the distinctive feature of broken plural s. Some linguists argue that Eteocypriot was a West Semitic language spoken in ancient Cyprus .
