1595 Tarihli Defter-i Mufassal-ı Livâ-i Ahısha’da Geçen Türkçe Kökenli Kişi Adları Üzerine

Author(s): Sinan Uyğur / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 0/2017

One copy of this book that was made about in 1595 is in the General Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre in Ankara and another one is in Sakartvelos Sahelmtzebi Muzeumi in Tbilisi just after following the conquest of Ahiska whose Muslim people were exiled in 1944 and it was conquered by Ottomans in 1578 and occupied by Russians in 1828. The book both has an important place in historical researches in the way of showing that the economic and civilian administration structuring of the region and inclusion of the names of the taxpayers makes it valuable from the point of Turkish language and culture. However, the names of rich person in the book have been evaluated superficially by those who have not been experts before, and have been made inferences about the ethnic structure of the region based on these names in the book. We will examine these previous studies about the book and discuss the names of the Turkish people recorded in the book from the point of phonetics of the historical Turkish dialects, morphology and vocabulary, and will be emphasized on these names that bear trace which of Turkish dialects.

1980-2017 Arası Telif ve Tercüme Matbu Türkçe Tefsirler Bibliyografyası

Author(s): Hikmet Koçyiğit / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 2/2017

Bibliography studies are studies that require constant updating. In Turkey, between 1980 and 2017, the acceleration of migration from the village to the city, the bringing of compulsory education, opening of many formal and private universities have caused enormous mobility of the scientific field and numerous researches on the field of tafsir as it is in every area. This situation has increased the number of copyright and translation works, so it has become necessary to identify these works. Here in this article, as a current contribution to the bibliography of tafsir, a list of the works of copyright and translation which was prepared and printed in Turkish between 1980-2017 is made. However, as a difficulty of bibliography studies, it is necessary to state that some of the works may have escaped the attention anyway.

A Comparison of Teaching Vocabulary through Audio-Visual Materials versus Traditional Ways

Author(s): Merve Nur Çalışkan / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2019

The present research aims at comparing whether teaching vocabulary by the help of audio-visual materials or through traditional ways is a better option in EFL settings. The differences between audiovisual materials and traditional ways have been remarked in the current study. The experiment lasted 3 weeks and was carried out with 36 secondary school students (control and experiment groups). Each group consisted of 18 participants. Firstly, the predetermined target words were taught to both groups by audiovisual materials or traditional ways such as writing, repeating, and translation. Secondly, a vocabulary quiz was applied to the experimental and control groups. When the scores were compared, there wasn’t any significant difference. However, the experimental group was relatively more successful than the control group. Thirdly, a questionnaire and an interview were applied to the participants by the researcher. The results showed that participants prefer to use audiovisual materials in vocabulary activities.

A Corpus-Driven Study on the Turkish Focus Particle Sırf

Author(s): Muhammet Fatih Adıgüzel / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2019

This is a corpus-driven study based on the TNCv3.0 to determine the co-occurrence patterns of the focus particle sırf (only/just) in its scopes. The study revealed that sırf’s syntactic associates are largely phrases or clauses of purpose or reason. Over half of the 430 concordance lines analysed had various purpose or reason expressions as sırf’s focused constitutes. The most frequent colligates in the exclusive operator’s scopes are reason and purpose markers diye or için, ranking the first two in its collocation list. This very strong lexical priming suggests a pragmatic motivation. By choosing sırf rather than any other particles like sadece or yalnızca, the speaker not only marks the single reason or purpose for which something is done but also often reflects a negative attitude to reasons or purposes as being unjustifiable. The most unfavourable prosody was detected in the collostruction sırf +noun+ olsun diye, in which almost all the nouns in the ‘noun’ slot are abstract, most of which have negative connotations.

Author(s): Michał Németh / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2015

His linguistic informants were Karaims from Halych.

A MEMORANDUM ABOUT THE KING OF THE ON UYGUR AND HIS REALM

Author(s): Zhang Tieshan,Peter Zieme / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2011

The fragment we are editing here for the first time is a specimen of a new genre of Old Uygur literature. It is a memorandum or an account on the early years of the West Uygur Kingdom of Qočo. The leaf is the 22nd of an ötüg that contains a vivid text changing between prose and verse reflecting the literary heritage of the Old Uygurs. Supposing that the work was written during the Yuan period (13th to 14th centuries) we have to admit that it is an ambitious work of historical retelling political, military, and cultural events that took place at least two centuries before. Since the 62 lines are completely preserved, this text presents a new valuable source for further studies on Old Uygur.

A MYSTERIOUS ANIMAL CALLED AL-WARK

Author(s): Krzysztof Tomasz Witczak / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2015

The paper examines the mysterious term al-wark, which – according to Maḥmūd of Kāşğarī (11th century AD) – denotes a small animal similar to a badger (Turk. borsmuk) in the Xakani language. This animal was treated as a symbol of fatness. It is suggested that the term in question was borrowed from a Tocharian source. The Indo-European term *wṛḱos (m.) ‘badger’ (originally ‘fat animal’, cf. Hittite warkant- adj. ‘fat’) is reconstructed on the basis of Indic, Greek and Anatolian lexical data.

Abschied vom Alttürkischen Witwenkleid

Author(s): Peter Zieme / Language(s): German / Issue: 3/2008

This article discusses the mysterious Old Turkic word tulton in the Manichaean story of a drunken man who had sexual intercourse in a tomb with the dead corpse of a woman. This hapax was interpreted as a compound of tul “widow” and ton “dress”. The new interpretation of another Manichaean text in which the same word appears clearly shows that the word in question has to be read tultun or toltun with the meaning “grove”.

Adaptacija imenica orijentalnog porijekla kategoriji srpskohrvatskog roda i broja

Author(s): Hanka Glibanović-Vajzović / Language(s): Croatian,Serbian / Issue: 1-2/1991

Orientalismen stellen einen bedeutenden Teil des serbokroatischen Wortschatzes dar. Sie wurden über mehrere Jahrhunderte bei direkten Kontakten hierzulande entlehnt und weisen einen hohen Grad der Anpassung auf. Der Prozen der Adaptation wird auf Grund des Verhaltnisses zwischen dem Modell und seiner Replik verfolgt. Bei der Analyse versucht man, Regelmalssigkeiten festzustellen, aber auch Abweichungen und Ausnahmen bei der Anpassung von Substantiven orientalischer Herkunft an die Kategorien Genus und Numerus des Serbokroatischen. Die Adaptation an die Kategorie Genus wurde dadurch erschwert, dan das Türkische (als die Sprache, aus der, direkt oder indirekt, entlehnt würde) diese grammatische Kategorie nicht kennt. Die Anpassung an die Kategorie Numerus wurde dadurch vereinfacht, dan das türkische Pluralsuffix - ler / -lar mcht ubernommen wurde; statt dessen wurden die grammatischen Mittel des Serbokroatischen benutzt.

ADLANDIRMA, TOPONOMİ VE ANADOLU’NUN TÜRKLEŞMESİNDEKİ ADLANDIRMA GELENEĞİ

Author(s): Yunus Arifoğlu / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 46/2020

Naming began with people putting an explanation on something. Human knows something by name. At the same time, man has removed his spiritual void by naming. Because the man was a stranger to the world. Place names are being investigated by Toponomy. While studying the naming, this branch of science makes use of both other disciplines and its own sub-disciplines. In this sense, it investigates the reason for the naming of a place and how it occurs. The richness of the ancient heritage can be explained and interpreted by toponomy. Although it was not known which impulse the naming was given, the naming factors can be known. One of the most important factors when giving place names is nature. Naming is the beginning of the taming of geography. Thus, geography became a cultural basin instead of an ordinary part. Geography was the main factor in naming. The other factor in naming is human. Socialization, colors and other similar factors were also effective in naming. Every tribe has named the place in its own way. Nations have benefited from the accumulation in the geographies where they migrated. During the Middle Ages, the Turkish population came to Anatolia intensively. Thus, Anatolia has become Muslim Turkish geography. The Turks who came to Anatolia were the descendants of Oguz. Oguz gave the color to Anatolia. When Anatolia became a Turkish homeland, the Turks adapted or renamed the names in the Anatolian geography to the Turkish language. In this study, toponomy examining place names was explained and the story of names was examined. The source of the nomenclature and the factors affecting it were discussed. Then, the naming methods of Turks in Anatolia. In this study, modern literature in the context of place names was used.

Agreement, case and licensing: Evidence from Tatar

Author(s): Ekaterina A. Lyutikova / Language(s): English / Issue: 02 (25)/2017

The paper presents a study of case assignment and agreement phenomena in Tatar. Although these processes overlap to the great extent, I argue that they are brought about by two distinct mechanisms. Case can be viewed as a morphological exponent of Vergnaud-licensing — structural licensing of argument DPs by governing heads. Person-number agreement in Tatar is a morphological reflex of a separate process, person licensing, that applies to 1st / 2nd person pronouns exclusively. The only structural configuration where 3rd person nominals can enter into agreement relation is a subject-predicate configuration where number agreement is available. This asymmetry reflects the contrast of obligatory licensers, which every finite clause contains, and secondary licensers, which are merged only when needed for convergence. The data presented in this paper provide a strong evidence for divorcing agreement from structural licensing, but against elimination of syntactic case from the system of licensing conditions governing well-formedness of syntactic representations.

AHISKA TÜRKLERİNİN DÜĞÜN TERMİNOLOJİSİ

Author(s): Esmina DURSUN / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 01/2019

Ahiska is an old Turkish homeland that has remained within the borders of today’s Georgia. It is located in the east of Turkey’s Kars, Erzurum and Ardahan provinces. In 1944, during the second World War, the Turks living in this old geography, consisting of five towns and villages known as Adıgön, Ahiska, Ahilkelek, Aspinza and Bogdanovka, were exiled by resolution of the Soviet Socialist Republics. With this exile, they were dispatched to villages in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Today, the Turks of Ahiska are scattered across many countries because of their forced or voluntary migration from these countries to other territories. However, this disintegration hasn't disrupted the tradional family and cultural structure of the community which they continue to preserve. Ahiska traditions and customs that are intensively represented in wedding rituals continue to survive. In this context, this study attempts to provide a systematic record of the Ahiskas’ wedding terminology while it is still alive and extant.

Author(s): Sevda ÖZEN ERATALAY,Pınar AKKUŞ / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 46/2020

Every society identifies with some animals. This situation is mostly seen in some animals such as horses, wolves and eagles in Turkish culture. These animals are known today as the symbol of power, courage and domination, just as in the old Turkish culture. However, in some cases, there are also animals used to show negative, ugly or undesirable. The best examples are Turkey Turkish dialects. While some animals are considered sacred or beneficial to the society in Turkish culture, some are worthless because they are considered harmful or ugly. This is the same for plant names produced from animal names. Study; Plant names created by the analogy of animal names were mentioned at the dialect of Ahlat District of Bitlis, which has a very old history. The study is intended to contribute to the vocabulary of Turkish.

AKADEMİK ÇALIŞMALAR IŞIĞINDA RUS DİLİNDE TÜRKÇENİN İZLERİ

Author(s): Ergali ESBOSINOV / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 40/2018

Nowadays, Turkic languages are world languages with more than 600 thousand words, which roots date back to the early estimates of history. In the background of the fact that Turkic people are so widespread and then influencing other languages, these languages are strong languages of political administration, rich in phonetic structure and literary power. Slavonic languages and Turkic languages associations started in the first century. Scientists classify these associations according to many historical circles. The first period is estimated to be І-VІІІ centuries. The Avars, which lie between the Slavs living in the Eastern European regions and the Huns, are the economic relations between the Khazars and the Bulgarians living in the banks of the Edil River. In this age, Slavic tribes generally passed names, places and water (river) names. Second cycle is ІХ-ХІІ centuries. According to some Turkologists, this periodical Turkic quotation words are of Kipchak language.
