Lat.septem > Ital.sette ‘seven’
Lat.octo > Ital.otto ‘eight’
The k is to the left of the t, which conditions the change, thus the change is regressive.
The k is immediately adjacent to the t, hence this is a contact change. The k assumes all
the features of the conditioning t, becoming itself a t, hence the assimilation is total. |
