Summary/Abstract: The Armenians, who migrated from Anatolia to north of the Black Sea, mainly Crimea, adopted there Kipchak Turkic, and by keeping their national alphabet, developed a literature in so-called Armeno-Kichak. Some Kipchak Turks, who converted to Gregorianism, adopted in turn the Armenian alphabet. This article makes an introduction to Armeno-Kipchak language.
