−	A phonological phenomena in which the first consonant in a word changes due to its surrounding phonological, morphological, or syntactic environment. In Gaelic, [[Lenition]] is the primary initial consonant mutation, though [[Eclipsis]] also occurs. Lenition is typically indicated by adding an orthographic <h> after the first consonant. The phonological effects of lenition are: coronals become debuccalized, stops become fricatives, /f/ deletes, [[Slender (definition)\|slender]] [[Sonorant (definition)\| sonorants]] become [[Broad (definition)\|broad]]. For example, the adjective ''mòr'' /mo:r/ becomes ''mhòr'' /vo:r/ after a feminine noun.	+	A phonological phenomena in which the first consonant in a word changes due to its surrounding phonological, morphological, or syntactic environment.
