Popis: The present study focuses on the Proto-Turkic phoneme */d₂/ in intervocalic position, which can be reconstructed only through external data from Mongolic and other Altaic languages. For this phoneme, four examples are presented. These are *kad₂a ‘rock’, *äd₂iä ‘master, lord’, and *k₂ad₂a- ‘to save, keep safe, take care of something’. The fourth example is Proto-Turkic *ud₂a- ‘to be late’. It yielded the Common Turkic noun *uyag ‘late’ but survived in Mongolic as *uda-.
