On the Representation of Diphthongs in Frisian.
Booij, Geert
Journal of Linguistics, v25 n2 p319-32 Sep 1989
Argues that what have been called rising diphthongs in Frisian can be shown to be glide-vowel sequences of which the glide forms part of the syllable onset tather than being part of the nucleus. This argument is supported by an analysis of the phenomena of breaking. (Author/VWL)
