Iran is a linguistically heterogeneous nation where Persian, Turkic and Arabic are the three main language families spoken. Based on their linguistic properties, Qashqais, Turkmens and Azeris are Turkic-speaking people. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether any genetic relationship exists among the Turkic-speaking Iranian subpopulations based on HLA class II gene diversity. HLA-DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1 alleles were identified by PCR-based methods in 100 Qashqais and 66 Turkmens, and the results were compared with our previously published HLA data for Azeris. Despite a number of allelic and haplotypic similarities, Qashqais, Turkmens and Azeris were not in the same clade of the phylogenetic tree. However, based on the results of principal coordinates analysis, they are grouped together with Kurds and Bakhtiaris. Contrary to their common linguistic features, the Turkic-speaking people of Iran are closer to other Iranian subpopulations than to the people of Turkey and central Asia. Overall, it seems that linguistic criteria alone are not able to determine the relationships among these populations, and a combination of different kinds of anthropological information should be used to determine their actual phylogenetic relationships.

“…This does not mean that there has been no influence of Persian on varieties of Turkic. Johanson [55] (p. 334) argues that "In Irano-Turkic varieties, most phraseological verbs consisting of a nominal item and an auxiliary verb are mixed copies of Persian originals." The following examples are given: Furthermore, Durroei [56] argues that complex verbs in Persian are a new phenomenon.…”

From Colombo to Athens: Areal and Universalist Perspectives on Bilingual Compound Verbs

Most or all bilingual varieties of the languages spoken in the area between Sri Lanka and Greece have bilingual compound verbs, consisting of a lexical content verb from a donor language and a helping verb from the matrix language. In this paper, these verbs are described and analyzed, and the question is raised whether this widespread occurrence is specifically an areal feature, or a universally available pattern and a question of typological poise-the possibility of a construction arising due to propitious typological circumstances. Pleading for the areal perspective, it is concluded there is the fact that two large and important language families-Turkic and Indo-Iranian-either rapidly developed or already had a productive [noun + verb] construction. On the universalist side, it is clear that native [noun + verb] constructions very easily develop into [verb + verb] constructions in bilingual settings, though not in monolingual settings. This is a cross-generational change that is a contact phenomenon; that is to say, this development does not occur in monolingual, non-contact language settings.

“…They are introduced by the conjunction ki. The conjunction ki is likely to be borrowed from Azerbaijanian (originally it comes from Persian and has spread among many languages of Anatolia and the Caucasus, see Johanson, 1998;Haig, 2001). clothes PV-dress-HORT1 'We ran fast to put our clothes on.'…”
