Khazarian was the language spoken by the early medieval Khazars .

It used to be widely agreed that Khazarian was an Oghur Turkic language, similar to Chuvash and Bolgarian , possibly influenced by Old Turkish and Uighur. Recently, however, this hypothesis has been questioned and it has been argued that Khazarian was a "normal Turkish" language.
