Welcome to the Proto-Turkic page! Here we will assist Wikibooks, together with Wiktionary, to consider the content of the reconstructed language, which is supposed to have been spoken between 500 BCE and 100 AD. Such a language was spoken in Mongolia before the Turks' Oghur tribe migrated to the west, somewhere north of the Black Sea! Proto-Turkic language, which we can call a kind of Xiongnu language, is the ancestor of all Turkic languages today.[1]

Classification

edit

Generally Proto-Turkic, known as the ancestor of Common Turkic languages and Proto-Bulgar known as the ancestor of Oghuric languages. There are conflicts about classification. Proto-Turkic, which is mentioned in the aforementioned book, has been more often called Pre-Proto-Turkic by Turcologists.[1][2][3]
