Turkish elements in Arabic dialects : colloquial Arabic

الملخص EN

The Turkish-Arab relations have over one thousand years of history.

This relationship, which continued for centuries, has found its reflection in the languages of these two nations as a result of intercultural communication.

Thus interaction of languages is a manifestation of cultural relations.

It is well known that Arabic has had a great influence on Turkish.

However, this effect was not unidirectional.

It is also possible to talk about the influence of Turkish on Arabic dialects and accents, though it is not as much as the influence of Arabic on Turkish.

This effect can be clearly seen in some words in Arabic dialects, borrowed from Turkish.

All languages borrow words from other languages.

However, if the influence of one language affects the structure of another language, it means that there is a deep interaction between these languages.

The emphasis in this paper will be on some specific morphological changes that have occurred as a result of Turkish influence on some morphological processes that have affected large groups of Arabic words in some Arabic dialects, rather than words borrowed from Turkish.

The paper will focus on the use of the Turkish question tag (mou:) in some Arabic dialects.
