I don’t know how practical this is for Revived Cornish, but it seems we may have a distinction between ‹nos da› (original /s/), but ‹tus dha› (original /d/). 

I believe this has been wrongly attributed to me by mistake.  Far too well-formed and coherent for it to be one of my paragraphs!

I note the many examples of /d/ not mutating to /th/ after 'tus' with great sadness - I thought Dan had discovered a new mutation rule for a while.  Still, never mind.

I don't suppose, Nicholas, that your much bigger and better corpus can provide any examples of mixed mutation of <ga>,<gi>,<ge> or <gy> after 'th, or can it?
