Description:The conversation took place at the home of the speaker.
The project ‘Synchronic register variation in monolingual and bilingual Turkish’ aims to investigate variation in various linguistic aspects in the varieties of Turkish spoken in Turkey and in Holland. It focuses specifically on sociolinguistic register variation (formal vs. informal) and cross-linguistic influence (from Dutch to Turkish). The research is based on a corpus of transcribed spoken data, collected in both countries. This corpus, once transcribed and annotated, will be released to the public, and hence become available to other researchers. The team consists of Ad Backus (principal investigator; responsible for supervision and register analysis), Seza Doğruöz (Ph.D. student; responsible for the study of morphosyntactic variation), and Gülten Ozmük (assistant; responsible for transcription). The project runs from 2002 until 2007.
The conversation is about speaking turkish .The speaker speaks turkoman. Because of his turkoman language and his etnicity of being a turkoman and living in the Netherlands, like many turkish speaking of people in the Netherlands , with turkish or turkoman mother tongue from other parts of the world , it shows the reality of the living and speaking of the turkish language in the Netherlands. There are only turkish speaking people from turkey but also from other parts of the word. Because of the reflection of the reality of living of people with turkish background and speaking of the turkish language in the dutch society ; it is important -because of it reflects the realityt of a population- to see also the speech of a turkoman person in turkoman language; also because of the way this person speaks, looks like the way of speaking of older people , or the first generation of turkish people living in the Netherlands from central Turkey; their speaking of turkish has in many cases not been chaged since thirty or thirtyfive years ago when they first came to the Netherlands, from the village. So you can see resemblances between turkoman language and the language of older people of the first generation from central Turkey; and by thus you can see the development of a language and also the origin of a language; even if many linguage scientist will oppose this hypothesis about a language.
Saher is a turkoman man from Kirkuk (Irak); his mother tongue is turkoman; since five years he is in the Netherlands; because the arabic origin of many turkish words , he says to know tutrkish better than the turkish people themselves because he knows the original meaning of turkish words with arabic origin. In his speech it is sometimes difficult to understand what he means , because he speaks turkoman, and says words with are turkoman -or sometimes arabic- , which the turkish people do not know.The structure of the language of his speech is gramatically not correct and so many times difficult to understand.
investigator is from the city Corum in Turkey , but lived in Ankara. She is living in the Netherlands since 23 years.
