Chagatai Turkish, the second period of the North-East Turkic language, is a writing language that the Eastern Turks continue to use from the beginning of the 15th century until the beginning of the 20th century. After Nevāyí's death, various dictionaries began to be written on every corner of the world of Islam, so that his works could easily be read. These dictionaries, written mostly in the Ottoman Empire, Iran, Azerbaijan, India or Turkestan and having a great value for the history of Turkish language development have created a lexicographical schools. Also in the Iran field many Chagatai Turkish dictionaries were arranged to understand the works of ‘Alí Şír Nevāyí. One of them was Luġat-ı Etrākiyye, written by Fetģ-‘Alí Bin Kelb-‘Alí Bin Mürşid Ķulı Bin Fetģ-‘Alí Ķacar-ı Ķazvíní in 1861 in Iran and is a Chagatai Turkic-Persian dictionary.
