    Brief Introduction to the Azerbaijani Language

    The Azerbaijani language is the official language of the Azerbaijan Republic. Azerbaijani isspoken by about 8 million people in Azerbaijan Republic and generally by 50 million people

    all over the world. Azerbaijani is a member of the Turkic branch of the Altaic language family,which includes about 20 languages. Close to 150 million people speak these languages inthe area that stretches from the Adriatic Sea in the west to Mongolia, Siberia and China inthe east. Specifically, Azerbaijani belongs to the Oghuz Seljuk sub-group, along with(Osmanli) Turkish. Other well-known members of the Turkic branch include: Uzbek, Kipchak,Kyrgyz, Tatar, and Kazakh. The Turkic languages closely resemble each other and form acomplex of mutually intelligible dialects.

    Characteristic features of the Azerbaijani language are: Like all of the Turkic languages, Azerbaijani is agglutinative, that is, grammatical

    functions are indicated by adding various suffixes to fixed stems. Separate suffixes on nouns indicate both gender and number, but there is no

    grammatical gender. Absence of initial and final consonant clusters (with some exceptions for the final

    consonant clusters) Absence of articles Instead of prepositions, it uses postpositions . For example: Anam il = with my

    mother Nouns are inflected for case. There are five case endings. It is subject-object-verb language It has a vowel harmony

    The Azerbaijani language has 32 letters. Stress always falls on the last syllable.

    Vowel HarmonyIn Azerbaijani there is a phenomenon called vowel harmony in which the vowels of suffixes mustharmonize with the vowels of noun and verb stems, for example, if the stem has a hard vowel (a,, o, u), then the vowel of the suffix must be hard; if the stem has a soft vowel (e, , i, , ), thenthe suffix must be soft. For example:

    kitab+ lar (lar- plural suffix)kitab+ n (Genetive case)zavod+ un (Genetive case)gl+lr (plural)mktb+ (dative case)

    Note: Though this concept may be difficult to understand at first, Peace Corps Language trainerswill work with you during Pre-Service Training to help you understand.

    Personal Pronouns

    IYouHe/she/itWeYouThey

    MnSnOBizSizOnlar

    To be suffixes in the Present Tense

    To convey the same meaning of the English to be Azerbaijani has different words and suffixes.The most common of them are the personal suffixes that attach to nouns, adjectives, andlocations and express the meaning of to be + noun/adjective/adverb.

    For example:

    Bu kitabdr= It is a book. O, qz qngdir = That girl is beautiful. Kitab rf+d+dir= The book is on the shelf (note that d here indicates location.).

    Negative is formed by the word deyil.

    For example: Bu kitab deyil = This is not a book. Kitab rfddeyil = The book is not on the shelf. O qz qng deyil = That girl is not beautiful.

    See below for endings used with different persons:

    Formal and Informal Command Forms

    Note that, for commands, in formal and polite speech in, - n,- un,- n is added to the verb stemaccording to the vowel harmony.

    For example: infinitive command informal command formalglmk (to come) gl (come) glin (come)qalmaq (to stay) qal (stay) qalnolmaq (to be) ol (be) olungrmk (to see) gr (see) grnoxumaq (to read) oxu (read) oxuyun

    Lesson 13

    Present Tense

    The present tense is formed by adding (y)ir(r,ur,r) to the verb root. For example: ilmk (towork) - il+y+ ir (works); glmk (to come)- gl+ir (comes); oxumaq (to read)- oxu+y+ ur (reads).The negative is formed by adding-ma,-m or -m to the root of the verb before adding the presenttense suffix. For example: il+y+ir--------- il+M+ir (doesnt work), gl+ir------- gl+M+ ir (doesntcome).

    In order to indicate which person is carrying out the action, one of the personal suffixes is added:

    person singular person plural1st
