The Proto-Dynic personal markers gain a series of conditional allomorphs in Proto-Central-Dynic, although whether or not these changes were present and synchronic in Proto-Dynic is a matter of debate. The first person singular subject prefix has a number of different forms, for example, depending on where it appears;
- *t- : After a vowel, or word initially before a vowel; e.g. *nitmīd, *tonosi
- *Vt- : Word initially before a consonant, or between two consonants. The realisation of *V further varies depending on the environment. It may appear as a mimic vowel of the previous syllable, or if it is word initial *i- is used; **i-ac-t-mugid → *yacatmugid, **t-hur-si → *ithūri
- *V̄- : Word initially before an alveolar consonant, or between two consonants, the second being alveolar. Like show *V The realisation of *V̄ may appear as a long mimic vowel of the previous syllable, or *ī-; **ar-t-tes → *arātes, **t-daŋʷa → *īdaŋʷa
