Lydall, Jean, 1976 documents an earlier form of Hamar (referred to as premodern Hamar hence) than that described in the more recent Petrollino, 2016 (referred to as modern Hamar). Key phonological differences include:
- Premodern Hamar has a 10-vowel system split into two harmonising categories which modern Hamar lacks, lost through a simple merger:
- /ʌ, ɛ, ɪ, ɔ, ʊ/ > /a, e, i, o, u/
- While modern Hamar has an /e ɛ o ɔ/ distinction, as premodern Hamar does, the former system is unrelated to the latter system; modern Hamar's distinction arose after the loss of the categorical distinctions as a result of a-mutation.
- Lydall does not recognise a phonemic length distinction in premodern Hamar, whereas Petrollino recognises one for modern Hamar.
