Summary
This chapter deals with morphophonology in polysyllabic word forms. In all known Turkic languages, the phonology of nonprime syllables differs considerably from that of the prime syllables. The oppositions mentioned in Chapter 14 are largely suspended, and assimilations have led to a great deal of irregularities.
