History
The Bashkir language is a Turkic language.
After the Mongol invasion, the Kypchak language became more common due to the fact that it was the language spoken by the majority of the Golden Horde tribes.The modern Bashkir language, like the similar Tatar language, takes its roots from the Kypchak group of languages. Today the language has many dialects, some of them are similar to Tatar. In the past, Bashkirs used the Chagatay language as a written language. In the late 19th century it was replaced with Tatar, which was in use until 1923.
Both Chagatay and Tatar were written in a variant of the Arabic script.
In 1923, a writing system based on the Arabic script was specifically created for the Bashkir language. At the same time, a Bashkir literary language was created, moving away from the Tatar influences. At first, it used a modified Arabic alphabet. In 1930 it was replaced with a Latin-based alphabet, which was in turn replaced with an adapted Cyrillic alphabet in winter of 1938.
The alphabet used by Bashkir is based on the Cyrillic alphabet.
