Proto-Turkic
Reconstruction notes
- Clauson considers the possibility of the reflexives in modern descendants with a final e and/or a middle g being from a separate root, however, he rather considers it an irregular sound change.[1]
- Oldest attestations can be read both as /i-/ or /e-/ and there exist regular reflexives in modern languages that would support both proposed forms. It is listed here with an initial *i- out of convention.
