Anonymous chronicles, usually known as the Byzantine Short Chronicles, provide scholars of Ottoman history with rich and unique information about historical events having taken place until the 17th century. Majority of these chronicles, usually regarded as a part of “non-official historiography” due to their idiosyncratic features, were produced in rural monasteries of the Byzantine Empire. Even after the fall of Constantinople, these chronicles, which continued to emerge in the peripheries under the Ottoman domination or threat, provide an invaluable arena for examining Byzantine and post-Byzantine Orthodox Christian subjects’ visions of the Ottomans. The present study aims to explore the approaches of Byzantine authors toward Ottomans by focusing on the language and the vocabulary used for describing Ottomans
