The Old Anatolian Turkish[3] (Modern Turkish: Eski Anadolu Türkçesi) is the stage in the history of the Turkish language spoken in Anatolia from the 11th to 15th centuries. It developed into Early Ottoman Turkish. It was written in the Arabic script. Unlike in later Ottoman Turkish, short-vowel diacritics were used.[4]

Old Anatolian Turkish was widely spoken in the entire area of Anatolia.[citation needed] Despite this, it had no official status until in 1277, Mehmet I of Karaman declared, "Starting today, in dervish convents, in council, in the palace, in Majlis and in squares, no language other than Turkish is allowed." [2]
