Rassadin does classify Tofalar, Soyot and Tuvan dialects spoken in Siberian region of Russian Federation, colloquial languages of Uighur Uryanhays and Tsatans living in Mongolia, Kökmonçak and dialects of Tsengel / Somon Tuvas as the group of Sayan Turkic languages in Uighur-Oghuz branch of East-Hun branch of Turkic language. In this paper, phonological, morphological and lexical features only appearing in Oghuz dialects of Turkic language are defined: initial unvoiced consonants t and k are replaced with voiced ones d and g (e.g., don, doruğ, dağ, gel, gök, gan, gar etc.) thence different meanings appear as a result of glottalization of the vowel of initial syllable of a word: at ‘name’; a’t ‘horse’, kap ‘sack’; ka’p- ‘to catch by mouth’, öt ‘bile’; ö’t- ‘to be bitten (by snake or spider)’, ot ‘fire’; ot ‘grass’ etc.
