   Linked via "Peninsular Romance varieties"

   Romance Languages
   In the evolution from Vulgar Latin to the modern Ibero-Romance languages, extensive palatalization of Latin /k/ and /g/ before front vowels ($\text{/e/, /i/}$) is documented. For instance, Latin \centum* often yields a sibilant or affricate in Peninsular Romance varieties, reflecting the influence of the leading $\text{/j/}$-like articulatory settings inherited from regional Latin dialects [4].
