Turkmen language is a state language of Turkmenistan, one of the Turkic languages belonging to Oghuz group. Turkmen language is widespread generally in Turkmenistan, in northwest Iran, in Iraq and Turkey, in some provinces of Afghanistan (velāyats), in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Russian Federation and Kazakhstan. At the last count, the aggregate amount of Turkmen-speaking people is about 6.5 million people.  A lot of dialects and accents (approximately 30) complying with various ethnic groups: Teke (central regions), Yomud (west and north of Turkmenia), Ersari (areas in the east of Turkmenistan), Salyr (the boundary with Iran) and others are peculiar for Turkmen language. The Turkmen settled down in Stavropol territory use the dialect, the so-called Trukhmen language. The basis for the standard Turkmen language is Tekke dialect.
