The Cuman language is a member of the Turkic languages, historically spoken by the Cumans, a nomadic people in the Eurasian steppes. It was primarily used from the 10th to the 14th centuries, particularly in regions that are now part of Ukraine and Kazakhstan. Cuman is closely related to other Turkic languages, such as Kipchak and Tatar. Although it is no longer spoken as a native language, it has left a significant impact on the local cultures and languages, influencing the development of Romanian and Hungarian through contact and interaction.
