Common Turkic languages

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]. In other classification schemes (A.Samoylovich, N.Baskakov, and others), the breakdown is different.

In that classification scheme, Common Turkic is opposed to Oghur Turkic or 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.
