Abstract

In the Kyrgyz language, along with the secondary longitude, which developed as a result of the loss of intervocalic consonants with the subsequent contraction of vowels into one long sound, the functioning of the positional longitude of the vowels is noted. Positional longitude results from the influence of sounds on each other in the stream of speech. Such lengthening of vowels refers to positional changes in sounds, and in a number of Turkic languages has a phonological character. The positional longitude of a wide vowel of an open syllable before a narrow vowel of the next syllable is characteristic of the Kypchak and Kypchakized Turkic languages. The conditions for the formation of positional longitudes in the Turkic languages, including the Kyrgyz language, are basically the same. There are more positional longitudes in dialects than in the literary Kyrgyz language. This type of vowel length in the Kyrgyz language, which has not been noted before in the scientific literature, requires further research.
