There also some speakers of Nogai in Central Anatolia in Turkey, mainly in Ceyhan, Ankara and Eskisehir provinces. </p> <div id="summary"> <h2>Nogai at a glance</h2> <ul> <li><strong>Native name</strong>: Ногай тили (Noğay tili), Ногайша (Noğayşa)</li> <li><strong>Language family</strong>: Turkic, Common Turkic, Kipchak, Kipchak-Nogai</li> <li><strong>Number of speakers</strong>: c. 87,000</li> <li><strong>Spoken in</strong>: Stavropool Krai, Dagestan, Chechnya and Karachay-Cherkessia republics, Russian Federation</li> <li><strong>First written</strong>: 14th century (?)</li> <li><strong>Writing system</strong>: Arabic, Latin and Cyrillic alphabets</li> <li><strong>Status</strong>: official language in Dagestan and Karachay-Cherkessia republics</li> </ul> </div> <p>The Nogai people are descended from the Golden Horde, part of the Mongol Empire from the 1240s to 1502, and they are named after Nogai Khan, a grandson of Genghis Khan. </p> <p>Nogai is also known as Karanogai, Kubanogai, Nogaitsy, Nogalar, Nogay, Noghai, Noghay, Noghaylar or Yurt Tatar. Dialects include <strong>Central Nogai</strong> or <strong>Nogai Proper</strong>, which is spoken in Stavropool; <strong>Karanogay</strong> or <strong>Qara-Nogai</strong> (Black/Northern Nogai), which is spoken in Dagestan and Chechnya, and <strong>Aqnogai</strong> (White/Western Nogai), which is spoken in Karachay-Cherkessia. </p> <h2>Written Nogai</h2> <p>Nogai was first written with a version of the Arabic alphabet when the Nogai became Muslims. From 1928 to 1938 it was written with the Latin alphabet, and with the Cyrillic alphabet after that. In Turkey, Romania and a number of other countries Nogai is currently written with the Latin alphabet. </p> <p>Nogai was taught in primary schools for the first five years until 1957. Since then there have been some lessons but in many schools they are optional. Two Nogai newspapers were published from 1973 in Karachay-Cherkessia and Dagestan. </p> <h2>Latin alphabet for Nogai (1928 version)</h2> <p>This version of the Latin alphabet for Nogai was introduced in 1928 and was devised by Abdul-Khamid Shershenbievich Dzhanibekov, a Nogai academic. Various reforms were made to the alphabet in 1931, 1933 and 1935. </p> <p><img src="../images/writing/nogai_lat1928.gif" width="587" height="296" alt="Latin alphabet for Nogai (1928 version)" /> </p> <h2>Cyrillic alphabet for Nogai</h2> <p>A proposal to adopt the Cyrillic alphabet was introduced in 1937 and published in 1938. It was revised in 1944 and 1960. </p> <p><img src="../images/writing/nogai_cyr.gif" width="612" height="744" alt="Cyrillic alphabet for Nogai" /> </p> <h3>Notes</h3> <ul> <li>Nogai has vowel harmoney: front vowels are аь э(е) и оь and уь; back vowels are а ы о and у</li> <li>е = [je] word-initially and after vowels, e.g. ел [jel] (fog)</li> <li>г = [ʁ] (ğ) and к= [q] (q) before or after back vowels.

Сенинъ Патшалыгынъ келсин, Сенинъ эркинъ, коьктегиндей, Ерде де этилинсин. Куьнлик оьтпегимизди бизге аьр куьнге берип тур. Аьр кимнинъ борышларын биз кеширгендей, Куьналарымызды кешир.

Bizdi azğıruvğa tüsirme, Yamanlıqtan bizdi qutqar. </p> <h3>Translation</h3> <p>He said to them, "When you pray, say: 'Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us each day our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation" <br /> <em>part of Lord's prayer (Luke 11:2-4)</em> </p> <h3>Article 1 of the UDHR</h3> <p>Барлык кишилер азад ве айны хаклар ман тувганлар.
