The sound of this letter in Ottoman

This letter "is used to represent a velar /ŋ/ when writing Turkic languages. In Ottoman Turkish, it represented the palatal /ɲ/ which, before merging, was the velar /ŋ/."What does this mean? It seems to mean that older Turkic /ŋ/ merged with some other sound and changed to /ɲ/ in Ottoman. What sound did it merge with, and when? What is the evidence for this (or a reference, at least)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linguistatlunch (talk • contribs) 15:42, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
