Are turks really turkic like other turks? Most people say they are more turkic than central asian turks. Why do you use Turkish when you say about Turks instead of Turkic?

Hello. What is the meaning of the element "maŋız" in "maŋızdı" (important) in Kazakh and where does it come from? Is it the cognate of Old Turkish (NB: I do not use the term "Turkic") "meŋiz"(appearance) or something else? Thanks in advance.

Any good books containing Turkic poetry written in the original script?
I'm trying to find some good poetry books in either Uyghur, Chagatai, Ottoman Turkish, Oghuz Turkish or Uzbek, written in the original script. I don't mind having a translation alongside it, but I really want to be able to learn to read the older texts.
I was wondering if there were any of these books written in the older text cause I really want to get into reading the older poetry and trying to understand what was actually written and not lost to translatpion.
I've studied Turkish and Azeri, and am currently learning Uyghur and Uzbek, I can read Urdu and Uyghur so figuring out a Persio Arabic script wouldn't be too hard to adapt to.
