Czecklish's vowel system is very similar to Polish's. This is because Polish and Czecklish share a close relationship phonologically, and sound changes tend to be shared between them. One such 'shared' sound change is Proto-Slavic *ų̄ (realized as Proto-Czecklish /ɯ/)to Common Slavic/Polish /y/. This sound change is not so much shared, as it is a common innovation. However, Czecklish has many diphthongs, which are not characteristic of Slavic languages. Czecklish diphthongs arose from syncope of voiced fricatives, and are not related to Indo-European diphthongs.
