...Since A is used only in Buddhist scriptures and has a more organized structure than B, it is believed to have been the written language of Buddhist scriptures, while B has several small dialects and has written secular documents such as letters and medical books in addition to Buddhist scriptures, so the prevailing theory is that it was a colloquial language. The name Tocharian is based on the view of German scholar FWK Müller that this language (A) was called Tokli (Toxiri) by the Uighurs, but this is not necessarily appropriate, and Tocharian A is often called Agni, after the old name of Karashahr, the center of the area where the documents were found, and B is called Kucha or Kuchi. Tocharian has preserved some ancient features of Indo-European languages, but it is not yet clear which other languages it is closely related to. ... *Some of the terminology that refers to the "Agni language" is listed below.
