\subsection*{Cases of an \emph{et} ligature pre-empting a \emph{ta} ligature}

Note: It appears to be the case that in all instances for which an \emph{et} ligature should be suppressed in favor of a subsequent \emph{ta} ligature, the \emph{et} ligature spans a morpheme boundary and hence shouldn't be used anyway. Some examples:

\bgroup \em
betake betatter bristletail caretaker cheetah 
detach detail detain dovetail 
foretaste horsetail nametag pretake
pretape pretaste pretax retable retack
retag retape retake retaliate retard retarget
whitetail wiretap

\egroup
\medskip
Note that the \emph{et}-ligature should not be suppressed \emph{globally} in favor of a subsequent \emph{ta} ligature because of the following groups of words:

\bgroup \em
\begin{itemize}
\item \emph{Words ending in -et-ary:} 
budgetary dietary monetary planetary proprietary secretary

\item \emph{Words ending in -et-able :}

\item \emph{Words ending in -et-al:} centripetal
