 Development of yod from the post-nasal unstressed of "vinea" enabled the palatalization of /n/ that would produce French "vigne", Italian "vigna", Spanish "viña", Portuguese "vinha", Catalan "vinya", Occitan "vinha", Friulan "vigne", etc., 'vineyard'.The most significant consonant changes affecting Vulgar Latin were palatalization (except in Sardinia); lenition, including simplification of geminate consonants (in areas north and west of the La Spezia–Rimini Line, e.g.Spanish "digo" vs. Italian "dico" 'I say', Spanish "boca" vs. Italian "bocca" 'mouth'); and loss of final consonants.
