Reconstruction notes
- Booker (2005) proposes the possibility of a geminated consonant, this would account for the short penultimate vowels in both Hitchiti and Mikasuki. Normally in these languages, after contraction of the *Cₐ or *Cₐₐ extensions, the penultimate vowel would be long. This geminated reconstruction could then be an older form of the non-geminated reconstruction.
