Description:

Khorasani Turkish (تركي خراساني / Khorasanli Turki ), or Qizilbash Turkic, is a language variety in the Turkic language family. It is spoken in northern Khorasan in Iran. Khorasani Turkic speakers also speak Persian. Khorasani Turkic is spoken in the Iranian provinces of North Khorasan, near Bojnourd, and Razavi Khorasan, near Sabzevar, Quchan, and Mashhad. If the Oghuz dialect of Uzbek is considered a dialect of Khorasani Turkic, its range extends into southern Uzbekistan. Khorasani Turkic is split into North, South, and West dialects. The northern dialect is spoken in North Khorasan near Quchan; the southern in Soltanabad near Sabzevar; the western around Bojnourd. Khorasani Turkic belongs to the Oghuz group of Turkic languages, which also includes Turkish, Azerbaijani, Gagauz, Balkan Gagauz Turkish, Turkmen, and Salar, as well as the Oghuz dialect spoken in Uzbekistan. Khorasani Turkish is most closely related to Oghuz Uzbek and Turkmen and is close to the Azerbaijani dialects spoken in Iran. Even though it is linguistically between Azerbaijani and Turkmen, it is not a dialect of either.

Pluralization is marked on nouns with the suffix -lAr, which has the two forms -lar and..... full article at Wikipedia
