Appendix:Proto-Popolocan reconstructions
Proto-Popoloca reconstructions by Fernández (1951) are given below.[1]
Fernández (1951) edit
Fernández's (1951) reconstruction makes use of Chocho, Popoloca, Ixcatec, and Mazatec (Huautla de Jiménez, Oaxaca) data.
Nasal vowels are marked with tildes instead of the original ogoneks (ą, ę, į, ǫ, ų) for easier reading.
