KIRMANCKÎ (ZAZAKÎ) DE PÊVERONAYÎŞÊ FEKÊ ÇEWLÎGÎ Û GIMGIMÎ

Abstract

This study aims to compare the kirmancki accents of Çewlîg and Gimgim. In doing this we have benefited principally from Seyîdxan Kurijî’s studies on the Çewlîg accent and for that of Gimgim, from the folkloric texts such as tales, stories etc. For the study, these materials are used with the synchronic method. How the sounds changed and when they diverged from each other in both accents are not discussed. This is a matter of another study. This study consists of three chapters plus an introduction. In the first chapter, the accent of Çewlîg and that of Gimgim are compared with one another. In the second chapter, the changing of the sounds in both is compared. In the third chapter, the nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions and conjugations are compared for both accents.
