Characteristic of vowel harmony in the Oguz-Kipchak dialects and their integration into other Turkic dialects

The article includes vowel harmony, which is considered one of the most characteristic features of the Turkic languages. Vowel harmony has a very ancient history in Turkic. This law was formed during the period of the proto-Turkic. In the ancient Turkic written monuments, vowel harmony was an “iron law”. This law has played a key role in the writing of ancient written monuments. However, although vowel harmony came from Orkhon, this ancient phonetic law should always be considered a continuation of the old norm. Although the word “vowel harmony” as a phonetic law in Turkic includes harmony of consonants, the harmony of vowels with consonants, on the basis of this law stands harmony of the vowel. However, as a result of the internal and external processes occurring in the Turkic languages in the course of historical development, the harmonics had different features. One of the reasons for this is the lack of proper knowledge of the dialect and emphasis based on the literary language. Therefore, Turkic dialects should be studied as the main source. The article does not consider satisfactory the study of Turkic dialects based on the facts of a particular language. This is more clearly seen when studying the law of harmony. The study of the law of harmony on the basis of various Turkic dialects allows for an accurate scientific interpretation of this issue.Данная работа выполнена при финансовой поддержке Фонда Развития Науки при Президенте Азербайджанской Республики Грант №EİF/MQM/ Elm-Tehsil-1-2016-1(26)-71/07/
