In Old Turkic, there are both ät- and öt-, which means ‘to sing, to make sounds (for animals)’. These are
more prevalent in that period, but the use of ät- has diminished over time and has left its place to the öt-. The historical phonetics does not
provide us any conclusive evidence whether there is a sound shifting at the
beginning of the word like /ä-/ > /ö-/. For this reason, it is necessary to
evaluate the two verbs separately. The existence of two verbs as a difference today
in Turkic languages support our hypothesis.
