The Middle Persian voicing of OIr. *‑k‑ in the parallel traditions
In the present paper it is argued that the Middle Persian voicing of OIr. *‑k‑ in post-vocalic position occurred only after the voicing of the other two Old Iranian voiceless stops. This claim is suggested by a closer inspection of the treatment of the outcomes of OIr. *‑k‑ in Middle Persian of the Pahlavi Books, in Manichaean Middle Persian, in New Persian, and in the parallel tradition represented by the Greek versions of the Sasanian multilingual inscriptions.
