ONE OF THE GHOST WORDS IN CHAGATAI LANGUAGE IS: URKUN
Abstract :
Chagatai Turkic Language has an important place in the field of lexicography in the history of Turkish language. Chagatai dictionaries initially compiled in Chagatai, Ottoman, Persian and Indian regions subsequently began to be translated and complied in Europe too. Errors occurring in the first dictionaries were conveyed without being corrected by the later ones due to the impossibilities of the period. This article addresses the adventure of the word “ürkün” which emerged from a punctuation error.
