Common Turkic, or Shaz Turkic, is a taxon in some classifications of the Turkic languages that includes all of them except the Oghuric languages which had diverged earlier.
Classification
[edit | edit source]Lars Johanson's proposal contains the following subgroups:[1][2]
- Southwestern Common Turkic (Oghuz)
- Northwestern Common Turkic (Kipchak)
- Southeastern Common Turkic (Karluk)
- Northeastern Common Turkic (Siberian)
- Arghu (Khalaj)
In that classification scheme, Common Turkic is opposed to the Oghuric languages (Lir-Turkic). The Common Turkic languages are characterized by sound correspondences such as Common Turkic š versus Oghuric l and Common Turkic z versus Oghuric r.
Siberian Turkic is split into a "Central Siberian Turkic" and "North Siberian Turkic" branch within the classification presented in Glottolog v4.8.[3]
In other classification schemes (such as those of Alexander Samoylovich and Nikolay Baskakov), the internal classification is different.[4][5]
