%X This article describes the separating and uniting phonological evidences of Proto Wanokaka-Anakalang (PWn-An) and Mamboro language (Mb) reflected from the phonological changes of the Proto Mamboro-Wanokaka-Anakalang (PMb-Wn-An) phonemes. The description is based on the types of phonological changes suggested by Jeffers and Lehiste (1979). This article shows that the three phonemes of PMb-Wn-An were found ¡®retention¡¯ in PWn-An, but underwent ¡®split¡¯ in Mb and one phoneme underwent ¡®monophthongization¡¯. One phoneme of PMb-Wn-An underwent ¡®substitution¡¯, in PWn-An, but ¡®retention¡¯ in Mb. One phoneme of PMb-Wn-An was found ¡®split¡¯ in PWn-An, but ¡®retention¡¯ in Mb. Whereas, the uniting evidences show that three PMb-Wn-An phonemes were found ¡®retention¡¯ both in PWn-An and Mb. One phoneme of PMb-Wn-An underwent ¡®split¡¯ both in PWn-An as well as in Mb.
