Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article provides a comprehensive analysis of medieval written heritage and Arabic-Kipchak dictionaries written in the old Kipchak language during the Mamluks (13–15th centuries). In particular, a comparative study of lexical sections of linguistic works known in modern Turkic studies, such as «Tarjuman», «Al-Idrak», «At-Tuhfa», «Al-Qawanin» and «Ad-Durra» was conducted, and similarities, structural differences and content features of Arabic-Kipchak dictionaries are determined. By studying the linguistic materials in the Arabic-Kipchak dictionaries sections of these monuments, it is possible to collect valuable data in the study of the history of modern Turkic languages, including the Kazakh language belonging to the Kipchak group. Linguistic data in the Mamluk-Kipchak language preserved in the medieval manuscripts of the Mamluks provide information not only about the medieval Egyptian society, but also about the history, culture, literature, language, religion, mentality and life of the peoples of the Golden Horde, which had close relations with the Mamluk state of Egypt. Therefore, a comprehensive study of the Mamluk manuscripts as a common cultural heritage of all Turkic peoples, including a comparative analysis with a general description of linguistic works, is one of the most important issues in the field of linguistics and Turkic studies. In modern domestic science there is a need to propagate among the people by finding and comprehensively studying written monuments about the history and culture of our nation.
