The Karakalpak language (karakalp. Qaraqalpaq tili , Qaraqalpaqsha ) is a Turkic language and belongs to the subgroup of the Kipchak (north-west Turkish) languages . This language is closely related to Kazakh and Nogai . Together they form a common subgroup within the Turkic languages.

Alternative names

Further names for the language are Karaklobuk , Çorny and Klobouki as well as Qaraqalpaq Türkçesi and Karakalpak Türkçesi (Karakalpakic Turkish) from Turkish Turkology .

Speaker and area of ​​circulation

The main distribution area is the autonomous republic of Karakalpakstan in northwest Uzbekistan . In the 1989 census , 398,573 Karakalpaks gave it as their mother tongue and 1314 as a second language. In addition, around 2000 speakers live in northern Afghanistan . (→ Comparative consideration of the Turkic languages )

Alphabets

All Turkic peoples in Russia , Central Asia and Siberia used Kyptschak-Tatar as a common written language until it gave way to the Eastern Turkish written form of Chagata in the 15th century .

It was not until 1924 that Karakalpakian became an independent written language, when a modified Arabic alphabet was introduced to write it. As early as 1927 this was replaced by the standardized Turkic-language alphabet . As part of the introduction of compulsory Russian lessons, the alphabet was replaced by a modified Cyrillic alphabet in 1940.

Cyrillic Karakalpak alphabet:

А а Ә ә Б б В в Г г Ғ ғ Д д Е е Ё ё
Ж ж З з И и Й й К к Қ қ Л л М м Н н
Ң ң О о Ө ө П п Р р С с Т т У у Ү ү
Ў ў Ф ф Х х Ҳ ҳ Ц ц Ч ч Ш ш Щ щ Ъ ъ
Ы ы Ь ь Э э Ю ю Я я

In 1997 a new type of Latin alphabet was adopted for Karakalpak . Like the other Latin alphabets within the Turkic languages, this is also referred to as the " new Turkish alphabet ". However, it dispenses with the usual diacritical marks in Turkish and thus largely corresponds to the Uzbek Latin alphabet.

Latin caracalpak alphabet (1994-2016):

А а B b C c D d Е е F f G g H h I i
J j K k L l М m N n О о P p Q q R r
S s Т t U u V v W w X x Y y Z z А 'а'
O 'o' I 'i' U 'u' G 'g' N 'n' Sh sh Ch ch

The last changes to the new Karakalpak alphabet were made in 2016: letters with accents were inserted in place of letters with apostrophes.
