B. The French word for “tail” probably derived from the Latin word /koda/ rather than from /kawda/.
C. One historical change illustrated by these data is that [s] became an allophone of the phoneme /k/ in French.
D. If there were a Latin word kertus, the modern French word would probably be [sɛr]. (Consider only the initial consonant.)
