This article provides a contrastive study of the lexicons of Tyvan and Sakha. Although the two target languages are classified into the Siberian subgroup of the Turkic language family, they do not exhibit straightforward lexical correspondence. First, this study demonstrates sound correspondences between Tyvan and Sakha primarily for initial consonants, presenting not only typical patterns but also minor exceptions. Second, this study makes a comparison of verb and adjective stem-final forms between the two languages. Three strategies exist to avoid a stem-final short vowel, which is not allowed in Sakha: addition of a consonant to verb stems and lengthening or deletion of a stem-final short vowel. Contrastive analysis reveals that Sakha adjectives often have an additional suffixal element compared with Tyvan ones. Finally, this study focuses on the meaning correspondence in body-part and bird names. Significant differences are found in these semantic areas. book part
