Abstract

This study deals with two cases of vocalic assimilation-nasalization and vocalic harmony - which take place in that the Guaja language (of the Tupi-Guarani Family). Starting in the stressed vowel, both extend regressively towards the left, surpassing the limits of the syllable. Althoug both cases have a lot in common, they differ in that the first presents a synchronic nature, and the second a dyachronic one, being the first time the latter is noticed and registered in this family of languages.
