Summary

In this work we study the sonorisation undergone by initial explosive consonants in words in Basque. We believe that the internal factors are sufficient to explain why the ancient lenes are sonorised. Besides, we research on the parameters that may have to do with the exceptions. On one hand, when there is ; another deaf explosive consonant in the same word, that explosive consonant may provoke, out of sound harmony, the deafening of the initial consonant in the word. On the other hand, in such roots, as in the rest, there may also be an expressivity that may also intervene.
