p-b alteration

Another sound change is seen in p-ending words, but in a less systematic way. 


Multisyllabic alternating

kitap ---> kitabı

şarap -----> şarabı

sebep ----> sebeb


Note that p-b alternating occurs in some monosyllabic words and it does not occur in some others. We just need to know them.

 

Monosyllabic alternating

kap ---> kabı

kalp ---> kalbi

 

 

Monosyllabic non-alternating

top ----> topu

hap ---> hapı 

sap ---> sapı

kamp ---> kampı
