The Oghuz languages are a branch of the Turkic language family, primarily spoken in parts of Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Central Asia. This group includes major languages such as Turkish, Azerbaijani, and Turkmen. These languages share common linguistic features and have evolved from a common ancestral language. Oghuz languages are characterized by vowel harmony and agglutination, where suffixes are added to root words to modify their meaning. They have a rich history influenced by various cultures and have contributed significantly to the development of Turkic literature and poetry.
