Common Turkic languages
Common Turkic or Shaz Turkic is a taxon in some of the classifications of the Turkic languages, which in Lars Johanson proposal contain the following subgroups:[1]
- Southwestern Common Turkic (Oghuz)
- Northwestern Common Turkic (Kipchak)
- Southeastern Common Turkic (Karluk/Uyghur)
- Northeastern Common Turkic (Siberian)
In that classification scheme, Common Turkic is opposed to Oghur Turkic (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.
In other classification schemes (such as Alexander Samoylovich and Nikolay Baskakov), the breakdown is different.
