Historical Context

[Ahmet Ardıç]

@GeoffreySea. Sounds good, looking forward to whatever you publish / put forward.

[Though wikipedia says:
"With only one word attested—oqurüm, "I have read"—Khazar was stated by the 1986 Guiness Book of  Records  to have the "smallest literature" of any language"

So it will be interesting to see how you negotiate this hurdle.]

There is no such language as the Khazar language. What you call the Khazar language is essentially a mixture of Hebrew and Turkish. Its main base is the Turkish language. The word —oqurüm in the example you gave is clearly Turkish. We write in today's Turkish in the form of OKURUM. However, there are still those who write as OQURUM form in the Azerbaijani dialect. If you remove Turkish words from the "Khazar language", it will not be possible to construct a single sentence.

Of course, these days Khazar words are sought and cannot be found. Because there is no such language. It is essentially a dialect of Turkish and not a language at all. If Hebrew words are interspersed in Turkish sentences, there is no need to call it Khazar language. In other words, many views are explained for a language that does not exist, and I can say that this sounds a bit interesting to me.

Even linguists tend to get inconsistent, unproven, and profuse misinformation on this subject, a detail that I often discuss with them as well.
