Spoken in Western Siberia, Khanty forms the eastern half of the Ob-Ugric languages. It has usually been treated as a single language divided in many dialects, tho a division into a small family of 3-4 languages may be more appropriate. The historical phonology of Khanty has been problematic in Uralistics.

Vowels

Khanty dialects generally have a distinction between full and overshort vowels. This correlates with the long-short distinction of Mansi, and is transcribed here as geminate vs. single.

Many vowels develop different near to velar consonant, which is mark'd by <Vˠ>. Some dialects trigger labialization in following velars, markd by <Vʷ>.

  • Labiality mergers etc: *ɯɯ *yy → ii, *ɔɔ → oo, *øø → *ee, *ɶɶ → *ææ, *o → ɑ,
  • subsequently *ææ → aa

DK-N-K-O to DK

  • *oo → *uu

DK-N-K-O to Proto-N-K

  • Long full vowels shorten: *uu *ii → u i
  • Lo vowel backing: *ɑɑ → ɒɒ, *aa → ɑɑ, *a → ɑ
  • In Nizjam only, *oo → uu (shared with DK)
