Английская Википедия:Affection (linguistics)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:More citations needed Affection (also known as vowel affection, infection or vowel mutation), in the linguistics of the Celtic languages, is the change in the quality of a vowel under the influence of the vowel of the following final syllable.
It is a type of anticipatory (or regressive) assimilation at a distance. The vowel that triggers the change was later normally lost. Some grammatical suffixes cause i-affection. In Welsh, Шаблон:Lang "word" and Шаблон:Lang "device suffix" yield Шаблон:Lang "dictionary", with Шаблон:Lang in Шаблон:Lang becoming Шаблон:Lang.
The two main types of affection are a-affection and i-affection.[1] There is also u-affection, which is more usually referred to as u-infection. I-affection is an example of i-mutation and may be compared to the Germanic umlaut, and a-affection is similar to Germanic a-mutation. More rarely, the term "affection", like "umlaut", may be applied to other languages and is then a synonym for i-mutation generally.
