"Dialect" diversity understated[edit]

Some notes from Lindsay, Robert. "Mutual Intelligibility Among the Turkic Languages." Retrieved December 18 (2010): 2015.[1]

  • "Uyghur or New Uyghur (a macrolanguage) and Uzbek (a macrolanguage) are fairly close, but they are still probably only ~75% intelligible."
  • "There is huge dialect diversity in Uyghur, some believe it represents more than one language (Hahn 1998), and in fact, Uyghur does appear to be more than one language
  • M[utual]I[ntelligibility] between Turkish and Uyghur is low, ~20% (Tekin 1978).
