    Imagine a Sultan speaking to the villagers with this language would the villagers understand him ?
    Definitely No


    As you can see from the archives Turkey has this language is commonly used for letters or archives people didnt speak this language
    Early Republican politicians had the same problem after language revolution, even Atatürk. I think that was one of the main reasons why many were illiterate. Besides of the wars he won, language revolution was the most important (and right) process for Turks in the last 100 years.
