Old Novgorodian

Etymology

Expected reflex of Proto-Slavic *śěrъ (from an earlier pre-palatalized form *xěrъ). The most important feature of Old Novgorodian and Old Pskovian is the absence of the second palatalization of the velar *k, *g, *x in the position before *ě and *i, which were only softened to [kʲ], [ɡʲ], [xʲ].^[1] Compare with Old East Slavic сѣръ (sěrŭ).
