Notes

  • Likely very similar to Qashqa'i or Afshar.
  • Doerfer and Hesche (1989) provide only minor grammatical details. It is unclear whether this variety has ever been documented.
  • Äynallu is a tribal name and does not refer to a specific ethno-linguistic group. It is used here and in other Turcological literature to refer to a group living east of the Qashqa'i.
