Both are Oghuz tongues, so they should be pretty close, especially in terms of vocabulary. But the two has developed separately over centuries so there is a lot of different features, this applies even between Azerbaijani and Anatolian Turkish, although the two started to develop separately only by 15th century. The separate development of Turkmen from western Oghuz tongue was even earlier.
The funny thing in Turkey we call all Balkan states "stan" at the end of the name. For example "Yunani-stan", "Serbi-stan", etcKazakhstan President Wants to Drop the ‘Stan’
The leader of Kazakhstan said Thursday that his country should lose the last four letters of its name.
President Nursultan Nazarbayev cited country’s oil wealth as a reason why it should be seen as distinctive from the rest of the Central Asian”‘stans,” Reuters reports. Those include Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, countries that are largely poverty-stricken.
Kazakhstan has seen a large level of investment from foreign corporations since it emerged from the ruins of the Soviet Union more than two decades ago, but Kazakh officials say the country still gets little attention from the rest of the world. Nazarbayev said that the country of 17 million could be renamed ‘Kazakh Ali,’ meaning “the Land of the Kazakhs,” as a way to seem more appealing to potential foreign visitors.
“Foreigners show interest in Mongolia, whose population is just two million people, but whose name lacks the ‘stan’ ending,” the president’s press service quoted him as saying. Nazarbayev said the idea is something “we definitely need to discuss with the people.”

I never met Ashika but I met couple of Kazakh, Turkmen, Uzbek and I have to say they were all very nice people, I got along very well with them, and we had a lot of topics to talk about but Kazakh I liked the most. They are most pan-Turkist and seek for closeness. I was always reading that Kazakhstan was seeking close relationship with Turkey but I found out that on personal level this is also the case. I wish this counted for all Turkic states.Btw Ahiska are living in Germany ? have you been to Turkey before ? if you're living in Germay how is your relation with Turks at there ?
Mate, I mean it's confusing a bit...
Like Azeris and Turkish are Oghuz Turks. So Kırgız and Kazak Turks are originated from the same family ?
no, har is hot while hara is a bag or i can't remember englishçuval. something like hurc. you know hurc?
Well there are some kinds of misunderstandings sometime.Btw Ahiska are living in Germany ? have you been to Turkey before ? if you're living in Germay how is your relation with Turks at there ?
We Ahiska are quite rare in Germany my family came with Russians to Germany (i would say no more then 600 Ahiskas live in Germany)I never met Ashika but I met couple of Kazakh, Turkmen, Uzbek and I have to say they were all very nice people, I got along very well with them, and we had a lot of topics to talk about but Kazakh I liked the most.
