Turkmen language

   Turkmen ( ISO 639-1: tk, ISO 639-2: tuk) is the name of the national 
language of Turkmenistan. Turkmen is spoken by approximately 3,430,000 people 
in Turkmenistan, and by an additional approximately 3,000,000 people in other 
countries, including Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Turkey.
   Turkmen is in the Turkic group of the Altaic language family. It is a 
southern Turkic language, in the Turkmenian group, closely related to Crimean 
Turkish and Salar, and less closely related to Turkish and Azeri (Azerbaijani). 

Turkmen alphabet

   Turkmen only started to appear in writing at the beginning of the 20th 
century, when it was written with the Arabic script. Between 1928 and 1940 it 
was written with the Latin alphabet, and from 1940 it was written with the 
Cyrillic alphabet. Since Turkmenistan declared independence in 1991, Turkmen 
has been written with a version of the Latin alphabet based on Turkish.
