Abstract

This short article tries to point out the most relevant linguistic and historical aspects surrounding the Crimean Tatar language. The aim is to summarily expose the hottest spots of a complex and rather not comparable (socio)linguistic reality, and to warn about the possibility that the Crimean Tatar could move downward in the fateful list of endangered languages.
