About Neo-Bulgar
Былгар тилгеси битине кош килдүвисир Bılgar tilgesi bitine koş kildüvisir Welcome to the Bulgar language page
Neo Bulgar is my reconstruction of the Bulgar turkic language. It was based on known vocabulary and texts, as well as the sound changes from proto-turkic to Chuvash. Grammatically the language is based on general turkic grammatical features. This isn't supposed to be a perfect reconstruction of the language, but an interpretation. It is also used as the language of a fictional Bulgar nation.
