How is Azerbaijani related to Turkish?

Azerbaijani and Turkish are both Oghuz Turkic languages and share a high degree of mutual intelligibility — estimates often put it around 70–80% with adjustment for accent and vocabulary. Azerbaijani preserves more Persian loanwords and uses the letters ə, q and x, which Turkish does not.

Which Azerbaijani script should I learn?

Azerbaijan officially adopted a 32-letter Latin alphabet in 1991 (the third script switch in a century). In Iran and across the diaspora the Perso-Arabic script is more common, and many older speakers still know the Cyrillic alphabet used in the Soviet era. LingoBear focuses on the modern Latin script.
