Tatar language

Tatar is a Turkic language spoken primarily by the Tatar people in Russia's Tatarstan region and surrounding areas. It shares linguistic roots with languages like Turkish, Azerbaijani, and Uzbek, featuring vowel harmony and agglutinative grammar—meaning words are formed by adding suffixes to base words. Tatar uses both Cyrillic and Latin scripts, reflecting its Russian influence and efforts to modernize. It is recognized as a minority language in Russia and has a rich cultural history, including literature, music, and traditions that preserve Tatar identity and heritage.
