It is relevant because for languages that only allow CV syllables to exist, languages that require onsets would have to exist. Arabic is supposed to be an example of such a language, but the fact that the situation is somewhat complicated suggests that, for at least some languages that are said to require onsets, that statement may mean something different from what somebody unfamilar with the language might expect. (I don't think CVCC syllables are very frequent in Arabic: AFAIK, they only occur word-finally in MSA.) | |
