In kashgarli / ny / voice

In the 11th century, Kashgarli Mahmut traveled around the Turkic world and recorded all kinds of assets belonging to Turks in Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk. Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk is the first work of Turkic dialect research science; it is the work of not only the standard language of the 11th century, but also of all Turkic dialects together with their subdialects. In this century, Kashgarli introduced and explained all the Turkic dialects in this century to the target audience of Arabs, together with their changing voices, forms and vocabulary. In order to do this, he personally applied criteria such as "hearing, seeing" which are the basis of modern dialect research; He brought together the science of Turkic materials he obtained as a result of field research under the name of Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk. Based on these facts, it would not be wrong to state that the value of every information given by Kashgarli in Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk and every spelling he used while writing Turkish words is more than thought. Kashgarli Mahmut preferred a special spelling in the spelling of some words written with the / ny / sound in Diwan before the 11th century. While writing the words in question in Arabic letters, he used the dots of ye on a single tooth and below the nun: as in the example. The words written with this spelling in Dîwân were read as two separate words by researches. However, the attitude of Kashgarlı in general of Dîwân and his explanations on the words in question require the spelling with the dots of nun on the single tooth and the dots of ye below it to be read as /ny/. It should not be forgotten that Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk is a work created as a result of field research; it is the result of this fact that a linguist like Kashgarli came across with the /ny / sound that existed in the period just before him and showed it in his work. The /ny/ sound, which existed in the Turkic inscriptions with runic letters before the 11th century, continued its existence in this century and was shown by Kashgarli in Dîwânu Lugâti't-Türk.
