MIRAC-NAME IS WRITTEN KHWAREZM TURKISH?

Khwarezm Turkish is the name given to the Central Asian literary language between the XIII-XV centuries. The most important feature of the Khwarezm Turkish is the presence of language features of the dialects. The works belonging to this period are accepted as Nehcü l-Ferâdîs, Kısâsü l-Enbiyâ, Mukaddimetü l-Edeb, Muînü l-Mürîd, Hekimoğlu Kuran Tercümesi, Muhabbet-nâme and Mirâc-nâme. The common point of the works is that they reflect the mixed structures of Khwarezm Turkish. However, the interpretation of the Mirac-nâme text in Khwarezm Turkish works is not supported by any linguistic material. The researchers are about the idea that Mirâc-nâme is transferred from a work called Nehcü l-Ferâdîs, but because of the differences in content, it can not be Nehcü l-Ferâdîs written by Khwarezm Turkish. However, the textual relation between the Mirac-nâme text and the Nehcü l-Ferâdîs written by Khwarezm Turkish is remarkable. In this study, the grammatical features of Mirâc-nâme texts were examined and the synchronic structure with Nehcü l-Ferâdîs written with Khwarezm Turkish was revealed.
