Abstract

Eric Schluessel published a teaching resource for Chaghatay in 2018, which teaches Chaghatay from the very beginning. This is great news for researchers ofhistory and culture in Central Asia and Xinjiang. Chaghatay has an important place in the study of ancient Asian literature in Central Asia; there are a large number of Chaghatay manuscripts in the Central Asian collection of ancient Asian manuscripts. Therefore, studying Chaghatay is an important way to study various fields in Central Asia. So far, several Chaghatay language teaching resources in Uyghur have been published in China, and there are several textbooks and research texts in Turkey. However, many scholars or enthusiasts may not be able to use these textbooks for language reasons. Schluessel’s English textbook is the first to teach the Chaghatay language from very beginning. I will discuss this book in terms of language teaching, phonology, vocabulary, etc.
