Similarities Between Turkish and Crimean Tatar

- Can Turks and Crimean Tatars understand each other? The term "Crimean Tatar" has been in use since the early modern period to refer to the native Turkic population of Crimea. Did you know that up until the 19th century this Turkic group consisted of the majority of the population of Crimea? When the Russian Empire annexed the Crimean Khanate in the late 18th century, the Tatars consisted of 90% of the population. Since then they have faced severe persecution. During World War II, Joseph Stalin ordered their expulsion from Crimea. In a matter of a few days a huge portion of their entire population was forcibly deported to Central Asia by the Soviet secret police in cattle cars. It's estimated that half of them died before they even reached the inhumane labor camps. The majority of the villages and geographic features in Crimea that had Turkic names were given Slavic names shortly after the deportation as part of the Soviet efforts to erase all traces of their presence from Crimea. A decade before the fall of the Soviet Union, their population had dropped to less than 1%, from 90% just two centuries prior. A relatively small percentage of exiled Crimean Tatars returned back after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Today, the language is considered to be severely endangered, and part of the Crimean Tatars' cultural revival consists of efforts in preserving the language and literature. This is why I'm very happy to feature it in this video.

Crimean Tatar and Turkish belong to different branches of the Turkic language family. But as mentioned in the video, Crimean Tatar is very unique in the sense that all of its three main dialects belong to different branches of Turkic languages, and the degree of mutual intelligibility with Turkish varies depending on the dialect.
In this video Lenur, Akhtem, Eylül, and Onur will demonstrate to what extent Turkish and Crimean Tatar speakers can understand each other.
The Turkish language, which is also referred to as Istanbul Turkish, is the official language of Turkey (Türkiye) and is the most widely spoken of the Turkic languages, with most of its native speakers living in Western Asia, and significant group of speakers in Germany, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Northern Cyprus, Greece, the Caucasus, and other parts of Europe and Central Asia. Ottoman Turkish, which was a variation of the Turkish spoken today, influenced many parts of Europe during the time that the Ottoman Empire expanded. When the modern Turkish republic was established, one of Atatürk's Reforms consisted of changing the Ottoman Turkish alphabet with a Latin alphabet. Today, Turkish is recognized as a minority language in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Iraq, Macedonia, and Romania.
The Turkic languages consist of over 35 different documented languages, originating from East Asia. Turkish has the highest number of native speakers out of all Turkic language. There is a high degree of mutual intelligibility among the various Oghuz languages, which include Turkish, Azerbaijani, Turkmen, Qashqai, Gagauz, Balkan Gagauz Turkish and Oghuz-influenced Crimean Tatar.

Well the Crimean tatars were colonizers themselves who genocided native Greek, slavic and Iranic populations where they settled.
@@persianguy1524 There has been a Turkic population in and around Crimea since the 300s and was ruled by the Turks for about 1000 years (longer than the Slavs). Onogurs, Bulgars, Pechenegs, Cumans, Kicphaks, Khazars and many other Turkic peoples ruled and inhabited this area for a long time. The Rums (Urums) still exist in the region also whose language got Turkified by Kipchak Khanate before about 700-800 years
@@persianguy1524 The Eastern Slavs were not massacred, they just came under Turkic rule and intermarried with the Turks. Also, The Iranics (Sarmatians) have already disappeared since the 200s. You have very clearly revealed your racist attitude with empty misinformation.
@@biscolataman The original inhabitance of crimea was Persian and Iranic first, then Greeks settled parts of it then Slavs. Tatars were just colonizers from the altai mountains not natives. Turkics genocided everywhere they went with their mongol kin, from Central Asia, to Europe to Middle East. Turkey a lone has conducted 3 major genocides against Greeks, Assyrians and Armenians in the past 100 years and is conducting one against Kurds right now.
@@biscolataman oh is this one of your 50 other accounts? Absolutely Comical a tork calling someone racist when you guys are the most racist people out there genociding ethnic groups left and right, even to this day. Shameless.

In Crimea we have dialects that is absolutely similar to Turkish. Lenur and Ahtem speak in "official" dialect. I am personally speak in turkish similar dialect. And we also have a dialects that will be very difficult for understanding for Turkish people. Actually, my wife speek in kıpçak dialect.

Probably the language that all Turkish/Turkic languages could meet is Crimean Tatar. It is the exact language that Kazakh, Uzbek, Uyghur, Azeri and Turkish speakers can understand easily. In fact, I consider if a prototype Turk were to be created, it would probably be a Crimean Tatar in every way. Love them.
I think so. during my univesity studies in Turkey there was a crimean tatar channel I used to wtach. I did not know it was Crimean tatar but "a weird turkish dialect" (I did not know turkish was related to other languages back then) but indeed they are really similar.
True, genetically it's considered Kypchak but it feels like a mixture of Kazakh and Turkish (Kypchak and Oghuz).
If I am not mistaken, back in the 19th century, one Crimean guy called as İsmail Gaspıralı (Gasprinsky) published a newspaper called as "Terciman" which could be understood by all of the Turkic languages which at those days Turkic languages could be separated as two schools. One is Western (Ottoman and Safavid or Azerbaijani Turks) and Eastern (Chagatai Turkic which was lingua franca in Central Asian Turks). So your theory is probably really close to truth or reality.
@@recep2939 Actually, the basic point of what I'm talking about, the fact that they are ethnically closer to the Kipchak tribe, but at the same time they have a very close relationship with the Oghuz tribe, politically, linguistically and culturally, with the Ottoman influence, makes them an excellent bridge group. Gaspirali was one of the first people to notice this connection and to try sincerely about it. It is a strange coincidence that today is the anniversary of his death. RIP.
@@muberrazeyrek8871 ah the play of the fate sometimes can really be suprising. Maybe there's no such a thing as accidents after all. RIP for the legend. I hope we can build something upon or like what he achieved or tried to achieved back in the days.
The bit at 10:25 "Maşallah, göz değmesin tü tü tü..." shows that the shared cultural features between the Turks and the Crimean Tatars are much deeper beyond linguistics.
In Kyrgyzstan we say "köz tiybesin", that means the same but sometimes we say "b" instead of "m" and "y" instead of "g"
@@that_flnger y ←→ ğ ←→ g ←→ k and b ←→ m are pretty common sound shifts in many languages, and particularly so in the Turkic ones. Sometimes considering those (and other) regular sound shifts is all it takes for a Turkish speaker to understand a sentence in another Turkic language, especially in the written form (and of course you have to know how to read the Cyrillic for some of the languages). The spoken version is often an altogether different world, though, even if you can pick up a few words here and there and get a general "sense" of what is being talked about.
Regardless, it is interesting that we all have that "eye touching" concept in the culture.
@@bishiler i agree with you. I can understand some written azerbaijani words but don't understand a word when they speak. These sound shifts are really interesting

Listening to him is a real pleasure.
"alma terekten uzaq tüşmez" exists literally the same in turkish, as "armut dibine düşer" for pear.
I had not been thinking these are the same :D
They have different meanings. But we have the same for azerbaijani.
"The apple does not fall far from the tree". It is a very common proverb in many languages.
@@Ozgur72 in turkish it is not apple. İt is pear.
"Armut dibine düşer." is said in Turkey. Pear falls just in the area under its own tree. 😊
I find it interesting how kiyik in crimean tatar means wild animal, while geyik in turkish means deer(kiyik means deer in kazakh too) because the same thing is present in english and german, deer means deer and Tier in germans means animal in general
Deer in English, tyr in Danish
I speak German and Turkish fluent and you blow my mind with this fact🤣🤣🤣
A great catch there.
Yeah, that’s a really interesting fact. Also “terek” in Crimean Tatar means “tree” while in some Turkic languages it mean “poplar” 🤓
@@christopherellis2663 wait a minute sir... isn't tyr an ancient god also with you guys (i know southern (south of you of course) germanic people used tiwax/diwas for him. but he was the god of war, i can't see any references between a game animal and a god of war.) are they spelled differently or was it just a coincidence?
As a Bashkir I could understand some words, because they simply have some regular sound differences; but there are some things that you just have to learn before you understand, I suppose, since Oghuz and Kipchak languages do differ in several aspects, and Crimean Tatar seems to have been influenced by Oghuz quite a bit.
Per usual, thanks for great content!
As a Bashkir do you want to see an independent Bashkortostan?
@Beko Although I like Turkey but Turkey is not a powerful country at all, poorest and the most corrupt country in this part of the world, terrible education system and got masses of uneducated pseudo religious public. Turkey is not capable to give anything to the Turkic world. Politically very unstable too, trying to survive between major powers like Russia, USA and EU. I wish Turks followed the Ataturk's way of thinking but unfortunately they chosen to political Islam which is bankrupt the country. You may find this a bit harsh but unfortunately it is the reality.
@Beko useless nationalism. Turkey has it's own troubles. Anyway, u will grow up and understand the reality.

In Ukraine, the National Corpus of the Crimean Tatar Language (NCCTL) will be created in the format of an online platform as an open library of educational and scientific materials on the Crimean Tatar language. The online platform is designed to become a powerful tool for students, scientists, researchers, practicing teachers, and other interested parties who want to learn the Crimean Tatar language. The organized corpus will contain Crimean Tatar texts of various genres with a wide range of word searches by multiple parameters. In particular, the site will be filled with scientific articles, monographs, artistic, biographical, and other literature, and newspaper journalism. In the long term, the corpus should reach more than 1 million word usages.
Держите в курсе)
Ага, а говна на лопате вам не нужно?
Ah as a native Turkish person that's a really great news! I hope the site will be open for the whole world rather than only in Ukraine. I would really like to examine and understand our brothers and sisters language further. Ukraine care about Crimeans and their culture way (and I mean WAY) more than Russia that's for sure.
@@recep2939 ahaha! What about native people of your land?
@@recep2939 На Украине есть надписи на татарском? Нет! Только в Крыму и России. В Крыму надписи и на украинском тоже есть. Вообще если говорит о татарах, то это бывший кочевой народ, а жителями Крыма изначально были греки, которых турки оккупировали.

The Oghuz element in the Yalıboylu dialect might have been because of the Ottoman settlers along the Crimean coast. I don't know if there ever was a massive immigration northwards, but it seems likely: Crimea is pretty close to Anatolia if arriving by ship, the southern coast has a lovely climate, and the Crimean Khanate and the Ottoman Empire had a pretty close relationship for centuries - so much so that there was an agreement that stipulated a member of the Giray dynasty would become the Ottoman sultan should the Osmanoğlus have failed to procure any eligible candidate to the throne.
I enjoyed this video very much. I'm learning Turkish, that's one thing, and I love comparisons between similar languages, that's another thing. Great job, guys, thank you and thank you Bahador :)

Many Turkish people have Tatar roots, and so do many Russians. I think it's very admirable how well the language was preserved. Another fantastic video Bahador ağa! 👏 (btw I found out that your name is also bátor in Hungarian, for brave, and also used in the capital of Mongolia, Baatar in Mongolian for hero 😎)
show me those Russians who have Tatar roots?
Açqıç = key
in Türkmen it is “açar”😂
by the way the guy from Erzurum has a bonus because their dialect is close to azerbaycani dialect and they can understand a lot more of other Turkic languages than a regular Istanbul speaker especially the karluk branch. For example people in Istanbul use to say „geldiğinde” but people from Erzurum and near region would rather use “gelende” which is nearly the same like in kipchak or karluk „kelgende“.
Ps. Just while I wrote this they talked about it😂
Yeah, I was amazed when how easily he guessed "mışıq" (or something), but then I realized they call it "pışık" (as far as I can remember from an old friend) in the eastern dialects of Turkish. That would be a "kedi" in the official standard.
"açgıç/açar" is a nice word, we should use it in Turkish... In Teke Region (south west Anatolia) we use "görek" word for "lock" and "göreklemek" for "locking" but I don't remember we have a word for "key"...

Thanks Bahador, that’s the topic I’ve been waiting for.

translating to english was the harder part in their communication.
It's very natural to see the asymmetrical intelligibility between Qırımtatar and Turkish. Because as they mentioned, Qırımtatar contains both Oguz (from Ottoman Turkish) and Qipchak (original Tatar) elements. So Qırımtatar people can understand Turkish relatively easier while Turkish people struggle to understand Qırımtatar if the Qipchak elements are more than Oguz ones.

Ohh you got it too
12:35 Açqıç is still present and fully understandable word in Turkish as "açkı" even if you never heard of it before in your life. It basicly has a grammatical meaning of "a stuff that open things" You can use it when you forget the word for key, can opener, pencil sharpener etc. and everyone will understand what are you trying to say to them.
The exact Turkish cognate would be "açgıç" (cf "dalgıç"). "Açacak" (cf "giyecek") or "açıcı" (cf "satıcı") would be more natural-sounding derivatives, though.
@@bishiler Turkish uses -gi suffix too. Silmek -> silgi sarmak -> sargı sevmek -> sevgi so açmak -> açkı makes complete sense too. That part of the phrase "açqıçnı kıdırta kıdırta" sounded so much like "someone left their house shaking their bare hips... " to me, that it was hard to think of another connotation unfortunately : )
@@tyttarentottero Yeap... kıvırta kıvırta.
I remember reading an anecdote to this effect on some other online forum, likely Ekşi Sözlük. In that story, a Turkish expat in Kyrgyzstan found out he lost - or perhaps forgot inside - the keys for the company-provided house just at the door. So he reported the incident to whoever responsible in the company, and they sent over a burly Kyrgyz man who asked for, you know, açgıç. Receiving a surprised, or perhaps shocked stare in return, he repeated a few times, incessantly, in the hope of getting understood: açgıç... açgıç... açgıç... sweating down the Turk to every inch of his body for fear of what's going to happen next.
Interesting information. Crimea is the homeland of the Kipchak Turkic tribes. The Çobanoğulları Beylik, which ruled my city Kastamonu during the Seljuk period, organized an expedition to the Crimea and defeated the combined Kipchak Russian and Byzantine army. After this war, the migration of Oghuzs to Crimea started. Therefore, Crimean Turkish is a product of the Oghuz and Kipchak combination. While the Oghuzs generally lived in the coastal areas, the Kipchaks lived in the interior. After the Crimean Khanate came under Ottoman rule, this culture and language sharing increased and an unshakable bond was formed between Tatars and Anatolian Oghuzes. The largest Crimean Tatar population in the world is located in Turkey, which is their homeland.
That's really fascinating. I had no idea the Seljuk Turks sent expeditions to Crimea. I always was interested in the fact that there were Tatars in Moldova, Romania, and even Poland. People often talk about the Mongol expansion and Golden Horde, but clearly the Black Sea region was Turkic/Tatar many centuries before that.
As a Qazaq I understand 95% of Crimean Tatar
This is very fascinating. My wife’s family has Crimean ancestry and they are from Turkey, near Eskisehir.
@@cjc2 Those on the Eskişehir side are the last to arrive from Crimea. There has been a Kipchak migration to Anatolia since the Seljuk and Byzantine periods. For example, during the time of the Byzantine Emperor Vazatses (1222-1254), over ten thousand Kipchaks were brought from Thrace and settled around the Menderes valley, Phrygia and Kastamonu.

When I heard Ismail Gaspıralı's name I got goosebumps..
Direk in Turkish means pole or wooden pole. This I imagine is from Derek / Terek. So in Turkish "Direkten" translates to "from the pole" but in Tatar "Terekten" translates to "from the tree" ("ten" being added behind words as "from")
It is really amazing how similiar Crimean Tatar spelling to Azerbaijani, even more close than Turkish
so you could also easily understand kumyk and karachay-balkar language from north caucasus?
When the Russians took over Arran and Shirvan which was renamed Azerbaijan later on , they brought lots of Tatars from Russia. The original language of Azerbaijan was similar to Talish and Tat language.

My grandmother used the word oyla. I was born in Oltu district of Erzurum province of Turkey (northeast of Turkey) My grandma always used to call us "Öyle her şeyi alıp oylama". She said it in the sense of not thinking so much.
Azerbaijani also have Kypchak mixtures it's not pure Oghuz I dare to say. So that's why we understand Crieman Tatars better than Turkish speakers. I heard a Crimean Tatar speaking for the first time on TV, I didn't realize that this is a different language so I was surprised just why news on TV are translating by using a dialect instead of official Azerbaijani. After I realized that OMG this is not Azerbaijani 🤣. Also we understand Karluk branch (Uzbek, Uigur) better. Uzbek is very understandable especially Khorezm dialect. Mutual intelligibility between Azerbaijani and Uzbek is between 70-80% which is significantly higher than with Turkish. Nice video. Try to make Azerbaijani and Uigur, Bahadur. It should be very interesting
As a foreigner learning Azerbaijani, this is interesting to read!
I‘m still from being able to understand even a basic conversation but it’s very nice to see it may help me understand other turkic languages I’m interested in better.

@@DoraEmon-xf8br wow. Where are you from?
Great video. I knew that Crimean Tatar dialects were very close to Istanbul Turkish. After Gagavuz and Azerbaijan Turkish, their language are the closest one.

Salar is the least known Oghuz language.
@@balporsugu7046 You are right. I should have said the second least known.
No, they actually belong to the Kyphchak branch of Turkic languages. There are three dialects and some smaller sub-dialects. Some dialects (i.e., Yalı Boyu) are closer to Anatolian Turkish because of the Ottoman influence. Çöl (Kır) dialect is less influenced by Oghuz features. Most Crimean Tatars in Turkey, Romania, and Bulgaria are speakers of the Çöl dialect. When I speak Çöl dialect to native Turkish speakers, there are often confused about what I am saying (including sentences such as "How are you? Are you ok?" or "It is raining.").
@@anarchoalican I am mostly talking about middle and southern dialects. I know that northern one is hard to understand for us.
Well, I don't understand both languages but I watched the video till last second because it was really interesting , I never thought there would be turkmen in Crimea. After reading your pinned post I felt really bad for them that they had to suffer from soviet brutality .. I hope they will preserve their mother tongue for 10 more centuries .
It interested my attention. This topic and talkers are so good. Congratulations.. especially Onur Berat
this was great … as a Turkish citizen speaking several languages and interested in languages, I was very happy to compare and very excited to understand Crimean Tatar language spoken by these lovely people … the communication, the dialogue between Turkic people of different countries is magic and heartwarming …
Tatar guys were such a delight to know. Very positive. My mothers side of the family are Crimean tatars. From Bahçesaray. They escaped Stalins purges during the second world war and ended up in the US, etc.
as a person describe himself as a crimean tatar who was born and raised in Turkey and never have spoken tatar language in whole his life, i am very thankfull for this video. it turns out that there was 3 dialects of tatar language that i can only understand one of them.
Crimean Tatars have such an interesting culture and a really sad history , hope to get more informed about them in future
World still tolerate USSR...
Very interesting and informative.
There is a (slightly) different usage of "oy" in Turkish than simply "voting". The phrase "kamuoyu" means public opinion
OH MY GODDDDDD I LOVE TO SEE THISSSS LOVE MY TURKIC SIBLINGS FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
omg lenur is just way too good hahahah! as a native turkish speaker myself i just amazed over and over again watching lenur translates EVERY turkish sentences in a second! great work! would love to participate in those videos one day!! specially against lenur ahahhaha
As an Ukrainian, I’m so ashamed that our government didn’t pay much attention to Qırımlar culture and problems before 2014.
I hope with the de-occupation of Crimea we’ll see the true national autonomy of Crimea that serves the indigenous people and not their russian oppressors
Oh, my friend. There will never be a de-occupation in our lifetimes. You know that.
Ukrayna devleti 1989 da Sürgünden dönek Kırım Tatarları öz evlerine yerleştirmekte tereddüt etti.Halbu ki Her kesin harada hansı şeherde köyde yaşadıkları arşivlerde kayıtlı.kaşke Kırım Tatar halkının acılarını önceden anlasaydılar.
@@DanielTaddone before February 24th, I’d agree. But now. It’s VERY difficult, but it’s not unlikely. Also, instead of military action, we might use the turmoil in Russia that is definitely going to happen after their retreat from the rest of Ukraine to free Crimea more or less peacefully
I realised that as well after watching Ayder Muzhdabaiev channel and we have a lot of work to do(education). Qirim serbest olacaq!
@@DanielTaddone you are terribly wrong, you putinist
Gaspıralı’s dream was that one day all Turks can unite in one (federal) country and common cultural identity (=Turan or Turanism) and acc. Gaspıralı the language is the key for this and he tried to reunite the different Turkish dialects that all Turkish people can understand each other easily. By the way the word “Turkic” is a creation of imperialist circles to divide the Turkish Nation in different pieces (Tatars, Uzbeks, Turkmens, Kırgız, Azeri etc. etc..) that they never come together again. In reality they are all Turks like branches of one tree with a common root. Not to forget: according to famous strategist Brezinsky, Central Asia is the key for world hegemony and who was/is living there: Turks, so they have to be divided in small pieces to swallow them easily one by one. All Turks have to keep this in mind.
You could say the same of Slavic/Germanic/Romance languages
@@BaronAnon yeah but people doesnt use turkic just our languages if just use for language it is ok but they call people turkic too. for exp slavic is language but slav is folk like this turkic is language but turk is name of folk for exp in Gokturk's Tablets they call themselves Turk Kaganate but western source begins call them turkic kaganate. if they want determinant of which kaganete they mention beacuse of they dont want mix it up wiht modern turks they can use Gokturks like us.
@@BaronAnon and many others
It's just like speaking English doesn't make one English. The truth is there is very little Turkic aspects about the people in modern day Turkey. They were not conquered/assimilated by original Turks, but rather by Turkmens (who were already a mixture of Turks and Iranians).
The original Turks are genetically near identical to Manchus and Mongols, since they've been living in proximity for thousands of years, if not more. They often inter-married to form tribal alliance and frequently fought over supremacy, which all resulted in shared grammar, common vocabulary and phonetics, culture, music, religion, clothing, cuisine, lifestyle, etc. Obviously, the people near the historic Turkic homeland of Altai mountains and Western Mongolia retain much more of the original Turkic culture. Turkish culture is a fusion of pre-existing indigenous and migrating Turkmen. It's unique and beautiful but not very Turkic.

Hey bahador! Thank you for this amazing job❤ could you please make another video about turkish-gagauz languages? thank you..
Harika bi videoydu baya eglendim thank you guys
Tatarlar bizi anlıyor ve dillerini ne güzel korumuşlar. Özellikle en sağdaki arkadaş gerçekten dilini cok güzel bir şekilde korumuş ve Türkiye Oğuz dialektiğini de öğrenmiş gibi.
As a Volga Tatar I like this one . We share some similarities in language with the Crimea Tatars. I can get more from the sentence if it written rather then orally.
Thank you for another great video.
I am one of those that Bahador described, my great grandfather had to leave Crimea during imperial Russia era, then his family had a generational journey to what is modern day Turkey. My mother's side is from Crimea but none of them speak Crimean Tatar, and my father is unrelated so I had to learn from scratch. Just like most Crimean diaspora in Turkey, I don't speak Russian so the sources are so limited. I appreciate the effort to create English language content about Crimean Tatar language. I know that it is not possible to have all of us return to the peninsula from Turkey and the rest of the world because all of us settled and married where we went and cannot leave even if the Russian invasion ends, but the least we can do is to speak and teach Crimean Tatar language so that genocide, Russian imperialism and Joseph Stalin doesn't win.

Great video ..I can speak Turkish...I hope to see video of similarities between larestani and Kurdish.. regards from Bahrain
Hey man. Can you do Turkish and Mongolian, Kazakh and Mongolian and so on? Quite a good amount of similarities there.
it's always give enjoy me seeing turkish languages so close.
Qirimtatar is highly close to Kazakh language, i could understand more than half of the texts in Qirimtatar
Kazakhs are conducting a major counter-imperialism project
@@theanti-imperialist1656 can you explain the content and purpose of this project?
@@tsunakbayev yes sir such projects as getting rid of Russian influence
@@theanti-imperialist1656 oh, i totally support this project,because we Kazakhs dont need Russian language and their influence in our country, instead we need to develop our own native language in all possible directions, there are still millions of people that can't speak Kazakh, most of them are of Kazakh ethnicity, this is what is left from USSR, but i hope that time will pass and Kazakh will be spoken by more than 90% of its citizens including non-Kazakh folks
@Nisanur Özyürek Actually, Turkish is simillar to Kazakh, the two are mutually understandable mostly

thank you for these videos bro
I always felt sorry for Crimean Tatars, I really feel them like some harshly seperated and brutalized part of our nation. I really hope Ukraine won the war soon and our Tatar folk in there could find some kind of independent living space with their own beautiful language and culture.
Crimean Tatar is officially used on all governmental levels in Crimea. Although many Tatars speak more Russian. No force on the earth will take away Crimea from Russia.
@@sirena.9 Half of Turkey lives in fear of the Kurds, their time will come. Wait and see
@@anonymous3396 Do we live in fear of Kurds? The world lives in fear of Turks. Russia is afraid of the Turkish minority, you are aware that the prolongation of the war and its deadlock may result in the disintegration of Russia or the unification of the Turkish states by declaring their independence from Russia, right?China is afraid that the Turks will come back, so the USA and the West are afraid that the Turks will regain their former power, you are afraid that the Turks will regain their former power.
@@anonymous3396 That's why Russia is playing a double against Turkey On the one hand Turkey is doing business with Turkey's enemies on the other hand, it is logical that it does it at the state level, but everyone knows how Russia is the defender of orthodox Christianity, while Turkey and the Turks are the defenders of the religion of Islam.
@@anonymous3396 The world is not 200 years old, since the USSR was destroyed, anything can happen The Turkic nation ruled the world for 1000 years, the fact that we are in this state now does not mean that we are always in this state :D
I was greatly surprised by the Qirimli guys! They speak the real language, which is a real wonder after more than 50 years in the Middle Asia. When I was a university student, one friend of mine was also a Qirimli girl who had grown up in Uzbekistan, so she spoke much more Uzbek than Qirimci. And here I heard a very rich and authentic language from quite young guys. Great! Respect and congrats to them and to their families!
Thank you for your support 😌
Thank you, Alex! Interesting that you note our families, as they are the ones whom passed down this language to us. Wishing you the very best!
Surprisingly it’s not so different it’s sounds like a turko-Kazakh to me but the words are understandable
@@frs-vr3mg absolutely
Bahador bey, ı would like to advise you to tell your guests to say the sentences in their own dialect once they get the meaning. Great job man, ı wish you great success
Proud granddaughter of a Crimean Tatar raised in Turkey here. Moved by this video 🥲. Thank you guys so much! Tatar balaları aruw bolgan (hope i spelled it correctly).

You translated very beautifully to Kazan Tatar. Thank you for that
I was very please of the quite close similarities between Turkish and Crimean Tatar. Yes I found this post easier to understand Crimean Tatar. I can assume the peoples had historical close connections. Liked.
Greetings to you all.
I speak Iranian Azerbaijani and Farsi languages.
I learned from your program.
I have to add terekt is Persian word for tree. It's pronounced Derakht درخت.
Thank you.
There some crimean tatars live in Turkey. They have their own villages and speak their Tatar language. Since they are originally Kipchaks the turkish dialect differs but it is normal that both influanced eachother since Ottoman heritage and Crimean Tatar kahgans had strong diplomatic connection. Even if something ever happened to ottoman family Crimean Khagan and his family had right to claim the throne. It would be interesting to see if Tatars were ruling empire instead of Ottoman family.
Thank you for Crimean Tatar!
I unexpectedly enjoyed watching this video
@9:06 terek is basically coming from Derekht ( persian ) tree. beautiful video
Nope
Yeah, I sent my Turkish friend a Crimean folk song with the written lyrics and she was able to understand a good portion of it.
My favourite language families:
1. Slavic
2. Turkic
3. Romance
As a Turkish
Altaic (Japanese=
Germanic and Nordic
Slavic
Çok eğlendim bu videoda sağ olunuz 👍
Je suis un tatar de Crimée, et notre Londres, fait partie de la langue turque. C’est normal qui est similaire, c’est la même langue.
not going to lie Tatars nailed it .. i should of been on the Turkish side .. if you think about old or Anatolian Turkish its so simpler to decode Tatar sentences other than just thinking through with modern Turkish
Bahador, Is it possible to make Karachay Balkar or Tuvan and another Turkic languages similarities?
Thx you very much
I think you already know about him but just in case. I would recomment to check channel "ecolinguist" and get inspiration of how to introduce language. What i mean is maybe it would be better for people to have expectations like "they know they try to guess some item" instead of just trying to understand random sentence. Beside that, it was a good video.

gosh, i just realized how tough this channel is: people who speak their native tongue in addition to English, who then hear a similar word or phrase in another language, mentally translate it into their native tongue in their heads, then translate it into english for us to enjoy. nothing but respect. 好厉害！太好了！
Lenur is very engaged, I like it !!! regards
Just want to share
Ordinary Tatars, that is, those who live in the Republic of Tatarstan and the Crimean Tatars are practically different peoples.
