This 1955 fundamental study by the prominent Soviet turkologist Ervand Sevortyan remains a cornerstone of Turkic linguistics, offering an exhaustive analysis of the phonetic structure of the Turkish literary language. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of Turkish speech, including the arrangement of the vowel system—characterized by synharmonism—and the articulatory dynamics of consonants. Published by the Academy of Sciences during a period of refined structural research, Sevortyan’s work employs both descriptive and experimental methods to define the standard orthoepy of modern Turkish.  As a vital primary source, this volume documents the systematic phonetic rules that govern word formation and inflection in a Turkic context, providing a rigorous scientific basis for the study of Turkish phonology. The work is particularly noted for its clarity in explaining the relationship between sound and the then-relatively new Latin-based Turkish alphabet. This large-format academic edition is a significant bibliographical rarity for turkologists, orientalists, and researchers of the phonetic typology of Altaic languages.
