Crimean Tatar language
Crimean Tatar (''Qırımtatarca'', ''Qırımtatar tili'', Къырымтатарджа, Къырымтатар тили), also called Crimean Turkish 〔http://www.ethnologue.com/language/crh〕 or simply Crimean, is the indigenous language of the Crimean Tatars. It is a Turkic language spoken in Crimea and the Crimean Tatar diasporas of Uzbekistan, Turkey, Romania and Bulgaria, as well as small communities in the United States and Canada. It should not be confused with Tatar proper, spoken in Russia. The languages are related but not mutually intelligible. It is more similar to and somewhat mutually intelligible with Turkish.
==Number of speakers==
Today, more than 260,000 Crimean Tatars live in Crimea. Approximately 150,000 reside in Central Asia (mainly in Uzbekistan), where their ancestors had been exiled in 1944 during World War II by the Soviet Union. However, of all these people, mostly the older generations are the only ones still speaking Crimean Tatar. In 2013, the language was estimated to be on the brink of extinction, being taught in only around 15 schools in Crimea. Turkey has provided support to Ukraine, to aid in bringing the schools teaching in Crimean Tatar to a modern state.〔(Crimean Tatar language in danger ), ''Avrupa Times,'' 02/19/2013〕
An estimated 5 million people of Crimean origin live in Turkey, descendants of those who emigrated in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Of these an estimated 2,000 still speak the language.〔 Smaller Crimean Tatar communities are also found in Romania (22,000), Bulgaria (6,000), and the United States.〔 Crimean Tatar is one of the seriously endangered languages in Europe.〔(Tapani Salminen, UNESCO Red Book on Endangered Languages: Europe, September 1999 )〕
Almost all Crimean Tatars are bilingual or multilingual, using as their first language the dominant languages of their respective home countries, such as Ukrainian, Turkish, Uzbek, or Russian.
