Reconstruction talk:Proto-Turkic/küńe

Why is this reconstructed with an ń?
As far as I can tell, no cognate points toward it, instead pointing toward a *küye, ontop of that Clauson also reconstructs it as such on page 754. Yorınçga573 (talk) 16:35, 19 May 2023 (UTC)


 * EDAL reconstructs it with *ń, to make a compare to Proto-Tungusic *kuńīkta ("butterfly") Ardahan Karabağ (talk) 17:28, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Ah alright, though I do have one more question, aren't Altaic reconstructions no longer accepted? Or is it seen as a loanword or a part of a sprachbund? Yorınçga573 (talk) 17:57, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * They are not generally accepted but sprachbund Ardahan Karabağ (talk) 18:11, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Aight, makes sense. :D Yorınçga573 (talk) 18:50, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
