MRPs in Data Entry

In the example presented in the record below, the triliteral WHT is a member of six MRPs (minimal root pairs), involving "shifts" associated with C3, which in this record is "t". This is considered to be a "characteristic" of the root. The three consonants that occur instead of "t" are displayed in the "MRPprimary" field. A primary MRP is one where both members are from the same language. This root is also a member of at least one metathesis pair.
