Sam Steddy, steddy@mit.edu 1 Palatalisation across the Italian Lexicon 1. Introduction. Italian palatalises velars /k,g/ to affricates [tʃ,dʒ] if followed by front vowels /i,e/, though at the morpheme boundary this rule misapplies in both nouns (Giavazzi 2012) and verbs. This irregularity has roots in the evolution from late Latin - which had an exceptionless palatalisation rule - to modern Italia
