Iberian barbarism has treated the semi- 
vowel 7 after a manner which richly illus- 
trates the possibilities of phonetic degra- 
dation. In present Castilian, which is one 
of the few languages of Europe which car- 
ries the aspirate proximate to each of the 
three speech organs, the 7 has an / value. 
In Latin America and in California of our 
own continental area an elder phase of the 
Castilian, or a distinct Iberian dialect, has 
prevailed, and we hear for j the compound 
of palatal surd mute with the preface of 
the palatal nasal, ngk; thus vulgo in Cali- 
fornia Los Angeles has become Angkeles, 
and San José, stopping a little short of the 
bottom of the palatal column, is Sangk- 
hosé. Here, in dominions oversea which 
we have acquired from the errant Spaniard 
we meet once again this mutation clear 
across the palatal tract; the point arising 
in languages of less complex structure will 
be found discussed at some length at page 
20 of Easter Island.
