         Usage notes

         • Before vowels and h, the prefix becomes co-, or rarely com-. Excluded are i and u when these represent /j/ and /w/.
           • Before b, m and p, the prefix becomes com-.
             • Before l, the prefix becomes col-.
               • Before r, the prefix becomes cor-.
                 • Before n, the prefix becomes cō- (or con- in Late Latin).
                   • Before original gn, the prefix becomes co- and gn is not reduced to n. As usual in Latin phonology, the sequences ons and onf are pronounced with nasalised long vowels, and the vowel is written with a macron, i.e. cōnspīrō and cōnferō.
