This short, preliminary web article consists of two main parts: (1) a
table of cognates apparently found within certain languages of Central
Asia and the Middle East, and (2) the discussion of the mechanism
which could explain why languages located so far apart could possibly
have anything in common with each other. Since the matter is highly
controversial, there are no conclusions.

Has anyone found any mistakes or inconsistencies in this work, and
if, not how would you see or explain the possible relation among these
languages?

as for turkic, the so-calledcognates didn't appear such at all

That's an "appearance", or opinion. Could you possibly specify and
elaborate why they don't appear as such to you?

, and
they didn't always target the accepted proto-turkic form either.

I don't know which "generally accepted proto-turkic" forms are. I
simply refuse to know because that's an _opinion_ , not a fact. The
facts are in the real languages such as OT, Chuvash and Yakut (and
some others). They are the only gravity points (so to say) within the
TLs. Would you agree that these languages are crucial for the
reconstrustion of the PTL (I thought the signinificance of these
languages was obvious and well-established)?
Besides, I can't believe at this point that my implicit reconstruction
of the PTL differs much from the standard one (if there's such thing).
I did not cheat with it, I was quite fair, so it just shouldn't
differ, unless I missed out on something particularly important.
