Old Turkic has nine vowel qualities—''a'' /a/, ''e'' /æ/, ''ė'' /e/, ''i'' /i/, ''ï'' /ɯ/, ''o'' /o/, ''ö'' /ø/, ''u'' /u/, ''ü'' /y/—distinct only in the first syllable of a word, collapsed into four classes elsewhere—''a, e, ï, i''.

 +
The consonantal system distinguishes between unvoiced, voiced (with fricative variants) and nasal:
 +
:labial: ''p, v (β), m'';
 +
:dental: ''t, d (δ), n'';
 +
:palatal: ''č, y, ń'';
 +
:velar: ''k (q, χ), g (γ), ŋ'';
 +
:sibilant: ''s, š, z'';
 +
:liquid: ''r, l''.

Also see Turkic Sonority Constraints#Words that changed due to sonority

proto-Altaic to pre-proto-Turkic:

  • ʒ, dʒ, d?, n? > j / #_ (?)

pre-proto-Turkic to proto-Turkic:

  • no n, m, ŋ, l, r, z, š / #_
  • p > ɸ > h
  • lenis/fortis merger
    • g > k
    • d > t
  • j, di, nʲ > j / #_
  • si > š / #_

Old Turkic phonology

Old Turkic has nine vowel qualities—a /a/, e /æ/, ė /e/, i /i/, ï /ɯ/, o /o/, ö /ø/, u /u/, ü /y/—distinct only in the first syllable of a word, collapsed into four classes elsewhere—a, e, ï, i.

The consonantal system distinguishes between unvoiced, voiced (with fricative variants) and nasal:

labial: p, v (β), m;
dental: t, d (δ), n;
palatal: č, y, ń;
velar: k (q, χ), g (γ), ŋ;
sibilant: s, š, z;
liquid: r, l.

proto-Turkic to proto-Kypchak:

  • nʲ > j
  • G > K / _#
  • d > t / _#
  • d > t / #_ (kind of, since most later borrowings did this, but later ones from Mongolic, esp. in Kazakh; proto-Tc didn't have #d)
  • V > [-rd] / []σ_
  • b > v / V _
  • v > w
  • gm > mg
  • Vg/b changes:
    • aG > aw
    • ub > uw
    • ɯG > ɯ(? sometimes uː in Kg)
    • oG > uw
    • eb/æb > yj
  • æ > e (more æ added by Persian loans)
  • d > ð > j / V_
  • øg > øj
  • s > tʃ / _Vtʃ
  • a > æ / _ X V[-back]
  • f > p

proto-Kypchak to Kazakh:

  • æ > e / #[]σ_
  • mg > ŋb
  • ʃ > s
  • tʃ > ʃ
  • j > dʒ / #_
  • dʒ > ʒ
  • CC > CIC / _]σ (sometimes)
  • h,x > q / σ[_
  • h > ∅ / _]σ
  • ʕ > G
  • K > G / l_
  • ∅ > O / #_{r}
  • æw > ew
  • f > w / _]σ
