Octavo (6" x 9 1/8"), maroon & gold wrapper w/black lettering on gold spine, bibliography, index, xxiv + 632 pp. From wrapper notes: "Modern Uyghur is an Eastern Turkic language. Most of the eight to ten million native speakers of Uyghur live in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of northwestern China, where Uyghur is also the lingua franca of various other ethnic groups. A smaller Uyghur-speaking community is politically and culturally active in Central Asia....With 'Spoken Uyghur, ' one of the standard works on the language, both scholars and those who simply want a basic working knowledge can gain access to Uyghur as it is spoken today. This book's primary purpose is to teach conversational skills. No familiarity with the structure of Turkic languages is assumed, and the material is appropriate for both self-instruction and classroom use."[less]
