Abondolo Daniel. Vowel Rotation in Uralic: ObUg[r]ocentric evidence

University of London, 1996. — 148 p. — (SSEES Occasional Papers 31).In this little book, I have tried to present the most important Ostyak-Vogul etymologies in two ways simultaneously. On the one hand, Die Lautgesetze kennen keine Ausnahmen.
Accordingly, the etymologies are classified into sets of Ostyak|Vogul correspondence-types which can be explained in terms of the diachronic principles mentioned above. The presentation of the etymologies broadly follows this classification, e.g. etymologies in which pO and pV both have *i are grouped and presented together. On the other hand, chaque mot a son histoire. Therefore each 0|V etymology is also exa min e d from without: the distribution of putative cognates elsewhere in Uralic is reviewed and the validity of the etymology is discussed, when necessary, in terms of the vocalic (and sometimes consonantal or semantic) appropriateness of the comparison.
