My notes in progress
Inuktitut syl struct is something like (C)V(:|j|w)(C).
Morphology that creates CCC sequences always has a deletion rule. For Finlaesk, this will probably become phonemic CCC sequences, due to the odd couple of polysegmental phonemes.
Sandhi occurs by "Manner of Articulation" (voiced, voiceless, or nasal). E.g. /ipti/ is legal, but /inti/ and /iqgi/ are not. Generally, this is done by regressive assimilation, maybe to the point of gemination. Greenlandic tends to use progressive assimilation. Some consonants in C1C2 sequences force C2:, which varies from dialect to dialect.
