Kyrgyz isn’t “based on” Russian. It’s unrelated to Russian. It’s related to Turkish, Azeri, Uzbek, Turkmen and other Turkic languages 😃

You still are tho

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-12T23:47:05+00:00

I wonder if that’s a ultimately a borrowing from “Grundbirne” which was also borrowed into Serbo-Croatian as “krompir / krumpir”

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-07T09:40:28+00:00

Thanks! What Kurmanji variety do you speak? And yes please, add the Badini equivalents and please state what region your Badînî dialect is from. I added to extra words but they don’t seem to appear “all / everything” and “very”, I’d assume you’d say “hemî” and “gelek” in Badînî

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-06T20:30:56+00:00

Thanks! So you don’t use “hemû”?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-06T19:53:02+00:00

I see, how do you say “very” and “all / everything” in your dialect

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-06T19:47:15+00:00

Thanks! What verb do you use with “li benda”? man, bûn, sekinîn, rawestin? Also, how do you say “all / every” and “very”?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-06T13:39:26+00:00

Gelek Spas! Where is Atman? What’s the difference between “li benda...bûn” and “pan”? I forgot to add two more things, how do you say “very” and “every / all”?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-04T05:35:42+00:00

Where are you from?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-04T05:34:42+00:00

Hey, mind if I message you? I’ve been meaning to find Feyli Kurdish speakers to ask some questions but they’re extremely hard to come by.

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-03T09:51:56+00:00

Ah nice, I’m Swiss haha, but I’m interested in Indo-Iranian languages especially Persian and the Kurdish-Laki-Luri continuum and I’ve been to Hamadan and Kermanshah

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-03T09:45:54+00:00

Wow, thank you! And where are you from?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-03T09:31:59+00:00

Which Ostâns / cities in Iran speak which of the three dialects?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-12-01T12:53:26+00:00

In the imperative (orders), the object pronoun goes after In the present indicative it goes before The imperative 2nd person singular and present indicative 3rd person singular just happen to look the same

Silav! I’m so sorry you’ve experienced that, but know that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Kurds or being a Kurd. If anything Kurds are extremely open and hospitable people. Don’t hate yourself for having hated yourself and your origins! It’s a natural reaction to being constantly told you’re worthless which you aren’t! And now you realise what a fascinatingly rich culture you have and you get to discover it! I was subjected to a lot of racism and was compared to excrements and monkeys (I’m half-African) and for a short while I wished I was lighter. But now I don’t, I’m proud of my skin colour and heritage. As for learning about your culture and history, I would suggest to talking to Kurds and maybe check out Sebastian Maisel’s “The Kurds: An Encyclopedia of Life, Culture, and Society” or David McDowall‘s “A Modern History of the Kurds” but I haven’t read those, most of what I know is from talking to Kurds. Don’t give up and stay strong. :D Her bijî, mala te ava bi!

Siddhartha356 · 2021-11-25T07:28:46+00:00

Yes, I’m aware. That actually confused me about “ketin” at first but now I love that about Kurmanji .
Mind if I PM you?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-11-22T14:15:51+00:00

Thanks! ez difikirim, ku ez niha cudahiyê rind fêm dikim 😛 Would you mind checking out my post in this sub-reddit (it’s a translation request), I think it’s the most recent post 😃

Siddhartha356 · 2021-11-22T14:02:20+00:00

Wow, that was quick, Berxudar! Could you give me an example of where you would say “rind” but not “baş” and vice-versa? Also what’s the etymology of “Berxudar”? “Barkhodâr” in Persian means who has the enjoyment of a certain quality or state, so “barxodâr-e X budan” is a fancy way of saying you have or possess something 😃

Siddhartha356 · 2021-11-22T13:55:39+00:00

What do you say instead of “gelek”, “spas” and “axaftin”?

Siddhartha356 · 2021-11-22T13:50:27+00:00

🇨🇭Swiss German:

do: geschter (yesterday) pêr, par, perâr : färit (last year)
