This analysis delves into the complex interplay between cross-cultural linguistic encounters, focusing on how Turkic phonetic elements resonate within the Wubuy'çi dialect. The study examines the embedded Turkic echoes in the phonological structure, providing valuable insight into the transference of sound across cultural and geography.
