The Karluk (Qarluk) Turkic, Uyghuric Turkic or Southeastern Common Turkic languages, also referred to as the Karluk languages, are one of the six major branches of the Turkic language family. Many Middle Turkic works were written in these languages. The language of the Kara-Khanid Khanate was known as Turki, Kashgari, or Khaqani. The language of the Chagatai Khanate was the Chagatai language. Karluk Turkic was spoken in the Kara-Khanid Khanate, Chagatai Khanate, Yarkent Khanate, and the Uzbek speaking Khanate of Bukhara, Emirate of Bukhara, Khanate of Khiva, and Kokand Khanate.
