"Amennyire én tudom, a hatti egy agglutináló nyelvű nép, akiknek a nevét véletlenül alkalmazták a nem agglutináló nyelvű későbbi hettitákra."

 

A birodalmakat rendszerint – azaz kevés kivétellel – a vezető etnikumokról nevezi el az utókor. A Hettita (Hatti) Birodalom esetében is ez történt.

 

"Hittite" is a modern name, chosen after the (still disputed) identification of the Hattusa kingdom with the Hittites mentioned in the Old Testament.

 

The Hittite language is the dead language once spoken by the Hittites, a people who once created an empire centered on ancient Hattusa (modern Boğazköy) in north-central Anatolia (modern Turkey). The language was used from approximately 1600 BC (and probably before) to 1100 BC. There is some attestation that Hittite and related languages were still spoken for a few hundred years after that.

The Old Hittite Kingdom was founded, but its main population was Hatti, the aboriginal people.

A hettita nyelv a hatti továbbfejlődött változata. Én úgy tudom, ez is ragozó/ragasztó nyelv.

 

It should be mentioned that this language is the only known Indo-European language that was agglutinative.
