The results of Proto-Slavic palatalizations in the Church Slavonic language (dynamic analysis)

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of palatalization processes in the ancient and Church Slavonic languages. The aim of the study is to compare the processes of palatalization in the Proto-Slavic and modern Church Slavonic languages, with an emphasis on their phonetic and morphological results. The article examines in detail the first, second, third and Yote palatalizations, especially their influence on the development of the phonetic system of the Church Slavonic language. In addition, the reflection of these changes in various parts of speech, such as nouns and adjectives, is presented. Particular attention is paid to the historical and cultural context of the formation of the Church Slavonic language and the influence that these processes had on the development of Slavic languages in general. Certainly, the historical process of palatalization helped to form the special phonetic features of the Church Slavonic language, which retain their significance and relevance to this day. In conclusion, it is emphasized that palatalization played a great role in the phonetic and morphological evolution of the Slavic languages.
