    This document provides instructions for students to apply different sound changes to reconstructed West Germanic words to see how they would evolve into different dialects. Students are asked to decide if sound changes apply differently based on dialect, apply the changes to words, and a key will later be provided for self-correction. The goal is for students to practice historical sound changes.

    1.

    Decide which sound changes apply to the West German (reconstructed) words on the left and write the output of the sound change in the relevant cell.
    2. Decide if dialect makes a difference or not. If it does, make sure to include the two different outputs in the relevant cells.
    3. A key will be later uploaded for you to self-correct this exercise. Ask your teacher in class if you have any doubts.
