Abstract:

The emergence of modern Uzbek language is closely related to the migration movements of Turk communities towards today's Uzbekistan geography. Turks who reached this geography encountered settled city people of the Transoxiana cultural axis with a relatively high intellectual level. This situation resulted in the Turks, who have a nomadic tradition, being greatly influenced by the culture and language of the settled people. However, the political and social power of the Turks prevented this influence from reaching the level of assimilation. Especially after the Timurid Era, the influence of the Turks on the local folk culture gradually increased. In this article, the interaction between Turks and Indo-European settlers, it was interpreted with the hermenetic technique, taking into account historical, sociological, ethnographic and folklore data. In order to confirm the information interpreted with this technique, phylogenetic studies, which provide more objective data than other methods, were used, and the reasons for the common phonemicization and grammatical unification between Uzbek and Tajik were emphasized. In addition, as a result of these grammatical events, the distinguishing features of Uzbek from other Turk languages are discussed together with their historical reasons. Thus, it is aimed to determine in general terms the effects of the linguistic composition of today's Uzbekistan geography on Uzbek language.
