Long Vowels in Proto-Tungusic

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eurasian Linguistics, 2020
Abstract This paper reviews 98 etymologies for which a Proto-Tungusic reconstruction with a long vowel has been suggested. It is shown that primary long vowels in non-first syllables are preserved only in the Ewenic branch of Tungusic. On the other hand, a number of the diphthongs in Southern Tungusic must be considered original.
