Popis: In this article, I revisit the problem of the origin of a certain language change phenomenon, i.e. [f]- > [h]- in Castilian and Gascon, by contrasting structural (internal) factors with social (external) ones. In the course of my argumentation, I also address the advantages of a theory that combines internal and external factors (Tuten 2003), finally reaffirming, however, the decisive role played by social factors.
