Aktuellt forskningsprojekt: Språkhistorisk analys av ett medelaserbaidjanskt manuskript vid Uppsala universitetsbibliotek
Jag deltar i bearbetningen av en aserbaidjansk översättning av Matteus’ och Johannes’ brev i Nya Testamentet, återgivna i Carolinas handskriftsvolym O. Sp. 39. Lars Johanson, som har bibliotekets tillåtelse att publicera denna volym, kommer inom kort att i samarbete med Éva Á. Csató lämna in texten med en ordlista till trycket. Jag deltar i bearbetningen av det mycket intressanta språkliga materialet för att belysa dess helt unika roll i den turkiska språkhistorien. Därvid utgår jag från min egen långa erfarenhet av jämförande turkologisk ljudlära och filologi och mina kontakter med Lars Johanson.
