RFV discussion: July–August 2015 edit

 

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


This was tagged but not listed. It's another of those words which one IP entered as Turkish and which another IP says isn't Turkish. In the past, some entries like this have been found to be regional/dialectal Turkish, but other entries have been found to be words only in some other Turkic language (e.g. Azeri) and not Turkish. It's hard for those of us who don't speak Turkish to tell which of those is the case. @Sae1962, Curious, is this word used in Turkish, and if so can you link to (or type up) some citations from Google Books that show it to be Turkish? Please also take a look at simek (below) and #kıyın and #bağdarlama.
On Google Books, I find evidence that beket is used (possibly in another script) in Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Uyghur. - -sche (discuss) 01:45, 18 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

beket cannot be found in TDK, the official Turkish dictioary. It may be of other origin (another Turkish language).--Sae1962 (talk) 11:42, 18 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
beket, simek and kıyın are not native to Istanbul Turkish. In this sense there is no verification. Maybe there exist some Oghusic dialects in Anatolia which retained those words, but are not found in the official Istanbul Turkish language. --Hirabutor (talk) 14:08, 7 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

simek edit

As above. Also take a look at #kıyın and #bağdarlama, above, please. - -sche (discuss) 01:46, 18 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Both simek & bağdarlama(k) cannot be found in TDK. I doubt that they are Turkish (and for sure not High Turkish).--Sae1962 (talk) 11:42, 18 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
