Today we’re going to talk about the Turkic language family.

This map shows the modern geographical extent of the Turkic language family. This language family comprises thirty-five living individual languages, which can in turn be grouped into six language sub-families.

The origin of the Turkic languages ​​is uncertain. It is believed that the proto-Turkic language was spoken by a people living somewhere in or around the Altai Mountains region as early as the 6th centruy BCE, but the first written evidence of the existence of Turkic languages ​​is dating back to the 8th century CE .

Turkic peoples started to migrate east and westward very early and are among the founders of some of the biggest and longest-lasting empires of recorded history. Some of them include the Xiongnu Confederation, the early Turkic Khaganates, Cumania, the Kangar Union, the Kimek Khanate, the Uyghur Khaganate. They also played a significant role in the formation of the Khazar, Ghaznavid, Seljuk, Mongol, Mughal, and Ottoman empires. Furthermore, it is believed, but not attested, that the Huns were a Turkic people.

The Turkic languages ​​are spoken by about 200 million people. All Turkic languages ​​share a few common linguistic features, such as agglutination, vowel harmony, and gender-neutral grammar.

The map illustrates well the grouping of Turkic languages ​​is four major subfamilies, in addition to two Turkic languages ​​being the last survivors of now-defunct wider subfamilies.
