This article treats on the weakly described process which is irregular phonetic development of words. The scale of the process is unknown, however it seems that the more frequently is the using of a given word the more is its chance for irregular changing due to frequency. Besides, especially frequent irregularities can be observed among borrowings.
Some of the data below are thought to be certain, others are under discussion. In some instances crossing of originally different roots might have happened (see e.g. łabędź). Hypothetic reconstructed forms are given. They should have existed in the proto-language if the word had developed regularly. It is known almost for sure that at most only one of such reconstructions can present a really existing form, however we rarely know which of them it is.
