Abstract

Background. This article is about a relationship of the Chulym Turkic language to the peripheral and Uralian Kipchak Turkic languages. The Chulym Turks are the people of the South-East of the West-Siberian Plain. The number of the Chulym Turks is around 365 people in Russia.

Materials and Methods. Research materials are words of the Leipzig–Jakarta list of the Turkic languages. These most resistant words were written out from dictionaries and publications. The Leipzig–Jakarta list is a 100 word list to test the degree of a relationship of the languages. In this survey the comparative method is used as the main method. A quantitative method is applied to count the similarities and discrepancies in the Leipzig-Jakarta list of the Turkic languages. Also an interdisciplinary approach and different data to study the classification status of the Teleut (as peripheral) and Siberian Tatar (as Uralian) idioms are employed.

Discussions. Previously we reached a conclusion that Chulym Turkic is of the Kipchak Turkic language origin according to the Leipzig-Jakarta list. This article sets the questions to which modern Kipchak languages Chulym Turkic is related or whether it is a separate Kipchak language group. Also, the classification status of Teleut and Siberian Tatar is discussed.

Conclusions. Authors come to the conclusion that the Chulym Turkic language is more similar to the peripheral Kipchak languages. The Teleut and Siberian Tatar idioms are the separate Kipchak Turkic languages where the first one is peripheral and the second one is Uralian.
