==History==
:''See also: [[w:Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]]''
Pre-Owina evolved from the [[w:Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]] language spoken somewhere in the Eurasian steppes. The following are among the notable changes that occurred as the Pre-Owina culture made its way into east Siberia:
* Voiced aspirated consonants became devoiced (but kept their aspiration).
* Short /e/ and /o/ were raised to /i/ and /u/ to make maximal use of the vowel space.
:* Afterward, vowel length was lost, so /eː/ and /oː/ became simply /e/ and /o/.
* Labialized consonants delabialized when preceding /u/ and /o/, and palatalized consonants depalatalized when preceding /i/.
* The consonants /j/ and /w/ shifted to /ʒ/ and /v/. Unlike most Indo-European languages where syllabic /j/ and /w/ became vocalic /i/ and /u/, here they remained consonantal.
:* When adjacent to a voiceless consonant, /ʒ/ and /v/ became /ʃ/ and /f/.
* Syllabic consonants became disallowed:
:* Syllabic /n/ and /r/ fronted to /e/, while syllabic /l/ vocalized to /o/.
:* The other syllabic consonants (/j/, /w/, and /m/) took on an epenthetic /a/ to separate them from other consonants. /ʃ/ and /f/ kept their voicelessness when pulled out of consonant clusters, thus cementing them as new phonemes.
* The dual number completely disappeared.
* Thematic inflection paradigms for nouns of the three original grammatical genders (masculine, neuter, and feminine) merged, creating a fourth "thematic" gender.
:* This gender adopted /qin/, a simplification of the Proto-Indo-European word for "other", as its pronoun.
* Unlike most Indo-European languages, which simplified the robust case system of Proto-Indo-European, Pre-Owina innovated two new cases under influence from nearby Siberian languages:
:* A [[w:comitative case|comitative]], from the postposition /kum/ ("with") suffixed to the accusative.
:* An [[w:illative case|illative]], from the postposition /xin/ ("in") suffixed to the dative.

===Consonants===
Pre-Owina possessed the following consonants:

===Vowels===
The following vowel phonemes are used:

===Phonotactics===
Syllables could be maximally SPAVAPS, where:
* S stands for any sibilant
* P stands for any plosive or fricative
* A stands for any approximant, flap/trill, or nasal
* V stands for any vowel
Pre-Owina inherited the phonemic stress system of [[w:Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]]. No syllable in a word had to be stressed, and sometimes more than one were. Here, stress is indicated with an acute accent, written thus:
