Bodrogligeti András: The Persian vocabulary of the Codex Cumanicus - Bibliotheca orientalis Hungarica 16. (Budapest, 1971)
A. BODROGLIGETI THE PERSIAN VOCABULARY OF THE CODEX CUMANICUS The Codex Cumanicus is a very valuable literary and linguistic document containing important information on the various aspects of the social and economic life of fourteenth-century Near East, above all on the colloquial layer of the Turkish and Persian languages. With the adaptation of the Latin writing system, the Codex represents both languages, generally with the Arabic script as a phonemically more reliable form, reflecting the phonemic structure of the actual speech. It is from there that the Codex Cumanicus derives its importance as a linguistic document. The present work contains the Persian linguistic material elaborated and systematized according to the principles of historical and comparative linguistics with due regard to modern methodological requirements of text analyses.
