Verbs of the sustainable vocabulary and list of M. Swedish in the Turkic and Mongolian languages

Novgorodov I. N.

The verbs of the Leipzig-Jakarta list and M. Swadesh’s roster are studied in order to explore the nature of the Turkic and Mongolian language relations. Turkic and Mongolian words do not have direct phonetic correspondence and do not allow to establish regular phonetic correspondences in order to reconstruct common Turkic-Mongolian roots. This casts doubt on the kinship of the Turkic and Mongolian languages and testifies to their convergence, which is evidenced by the facts of contacts, which led to mutual borrowing which begins in the 5th century A.D. in the Central Asia steppe zone
