  1. Uyghur Language

    Linked via "Chagatai language"

    History and Classification
    The historical development of Uyghur is traditionally traced from the early Chagatai language, which served as the literary language for centuries across Central Asia. Modern Uyghur is generally classified into three main dialects, though dialectal differences are less pronounced than in some other large linguistic groups, largely due to the unifying influence of standardized media and the historically pervasive Silk Road trade routes.
