Türkçe'de Rumence, Yunanca ve Bulgarca'da Türkler ve Türkiye Türkçesi'nde Rumenler, Bulgarlar ve Yunanlılar

This brought together colloquial words and expressions for Bulgarian, Greek/Rum, and Bulgarian in three Balkan languages (Greek, Bulgarian, Romanian) and Turkish as they relate to Bulgarians. The compiled linguistic items were first classified in terms of positive, negative, and listed meanings in Turkish. A further 15-item thematic classification was then conducted. This allowed us to test the distribution of words and expressions related to Turks in these three Balkan languages, both in Turkish and across different fields. The compiled items are listed separately for each language. Separate tables were prepared and constructed for each language for thematic classifications. The study yielded 55 words or expressions related to infidels, gypsies, and priests in Turkish, nine for Bulgarians, 13 for Romanians, and finally 26 for Greeks/Rums. Furthermore, 27 items related to Turks were identified in Bulgarian, 82 in Romanian, and 20 in Greek. Thus, a total of 232 linguistic items were collected.
