Many theories have been proposed to explain the origin of the Korean language. The most prominent of these link Korean to the Altaic languages of central and east Asia, a family that includes Turkish, Mongolian, and Japanese. Although not definitively proven, this affiliation is accepted by most Korean linguists and deemed likely by Western linguists as well.
