This paper investigates the (re-)emergence of onset consonants in English loans from French, Latin and Greek, spelt with initial &lt;u&gt; (&gt; /juː/; e.g.  union ,  use ), initial &lt;eu&gt; (&gt; /juː/; e.g.  eulogy ,  euphemism ), or initial &lt;h&gt; (e.g.  habit ,  homogeneous ). It analyses Google Books data, exploiting the occurrence of the article allomorph  a  (rather than  an ) as a diagnostic of consonantal realisation. The analysis yields a fine-grained description of the (re-)emergence of consonantal onsets. It shows that their emergence has been a gradual process and has not reached completion yet. On a theoretical level, the paper discusses the interaction between categorical phonological processing and fine-grained phonetic distinctions in an exemplar-based framework. It also sheds light on the question of (near-)mergers and their potential reversibility.
