 ===Development of Niemish proper===
-====Emergence of /ɨː/====
-The long /iː/ (from Gothic ''ei'' and ''ē'') became ''y'' /ɨː/ when preceded by a labial or labialised consonant (/p, b, m, f, w, kʷ, gʷ) and not followed by a front vowel in the next syllable. Labialsed velars were subsequently delabialised:
-*Got. ''[[wikt:𐌱𐌴𐌹𐍃𐍄#Gothic|beist]]'' > ''byst''
-*Got. ''[[wikt:𐌼𐌴𐍃#Gothic|mēs]]'' > ''meis'' > ''mysz''

 This sound change took place before the backing of /iː/ to /ɨː/, as indicated by the fact that ''mēs'' became ''mysz''
