the present Ä°ntroduction to Altaic Linguistics is designed as a manual for university students. Ä°t is by no means a learned work presenting new material or new ideas to scholars who themselves are altaicists, although it might be of some use to a scholar, let us say, in the Turkic field who wishes to learn something about Mongolian in general or a particular Mongolian language. And vice versa, a scholar in the Mongolian field might need information on one of the Turkic languages.
