5.0 out of 5 stars Mother of etymological Turkish dictionaries, December 16, 2001
By 
Yavuz (Istanbul, Turkey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Etymological Dictionary of Pre-13th Century Turkish (Hardcover)
The most comprehensive and scholarly work ever written on Turkish language etymology. One would have expected that certain Turkish scholars read this book before having published their etymological dictionaries on Turkish language.

5.0 out of 5 stars Critical reference - excellent, August 3, 2000
By 
This review is from: An Etymological Dictionary of Pre-13th Century Turkish (Hardcover)
This is the essential dictionary for early Turkic language study. Materials available in these langauges include various inscriptions, Manichaen texts, Buddhist texts, Christian texts (primarily Nestorian) and a variety of texts as you would expect in any language - legal documents, medicinal, astronomical, astrological, omen, magic etc. The lanuages include various stages of Turku, Uighur, Kirgiz, Xakani, Ogus, Kipcak, Chagatay ... The dictionary is well arranged and readable. An essential reference for the entire family of languages.

5.0 out of 5 stars The culmination Clauson's vast research. Classic., December 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: An Etymological Dictionary of Pre-13th Century Turkish (Hardcover)
This is **the** work on the topic, the basis for all subsequent work. Very important, and should be included in every library that addresses Central Asian or Turkish studies.
