It developed into the Early Ottoman Turkish language and then Turkish language. Its writing system was Arabic. Unlike the Ottoman Turkish, ḥarakāts of the Arabic script were used.[4]
Old Anatolian Turkish was widely spoken in the entire area of Anatolia. Despite of this, it had no official status. In 1277, Karamanoğlu Mehmet Bey declared that:
"Starting from today, in dervish convent, in council, in the palace, in Majlis and in squares, no language other than Turkish is allowed." [1]
In the 15th century, Old Anatolian Turkish language developed into Ottoman Turkish language.
