Similarities Between Turkish & The Lebanese Dialect Of Arabic 

5:38 Interestingly, the Turkish word efendi comes from Byzantine Greek ἀφέντης (aféntes) meaning master, boss, itself from Ancient Greek αὐθέντης (authentes) meaning ruler, and is now used in Western languages as authentic (English), authentique (French), auténtico (Spanish) etc

I am from Libya and i got all the words right except (cüzdan/جزدان) that was weird for me utill i realized we pronounce it a little differently (dezdan/دزدان)

In Iraq, we use Efendi, Belki, Cam ( glass), and a lot more Turkish words actually are found in the Iraqi dialect.

🇮🇳 in Hindi :- Dost (friend) 🇹🇷in Turkish :- Dost (friend)

As an Urdu speaker from Pakistan, I got: Juzdan جزدان = beg and cover, but it's always used as a cover of Qura'n Bulkeh بلکہ : not sure if it's same, but it sounded very similar. However we have different meaning which is "on the contrary, moreover" Aafandi آفندی: it's used as sir name or last name Adliyah عدلیہ: judiciary Saraye سرائے: palace Bahadur, do you plan to do this type of videos with Urdu? I want to participate/watch so badly 😅

That was most enjoyable. Thank you everyone for this.

Oda in Bosnian we use odaja (odaya) it means room as will

What a great video, and I agree the cuisine is so similar, and it's really amazing. I love it so much! It's my go to food when travelling 🤩

They’re mainly Turkish words borrowed into Lebanese Arabic.

Very interesting. This and as you said the food similarities is due the period in which Lebanon was under the Ottoman Empire.

A very good video! The comparison between the two languages is very accurate.

This new format is perfect. More of this great job, please!

Beautiful Turkish woman Merve! By the way, in the Iraqi dialect there are also Turkish influence. A lot of Persian influence on Iraqi but also Turkish which you can see across the country.

Love to Lebanon from Turkey 🇱🇧🇹🇷

I'm neither Turkish nor Lebanese but I got DOGRU from the first second😊 Well, I do think that those Lebanese terms are originated from Turkish language. Am I right? Anyway it's an Interesting video!

Merve looks like Zehra Güneş (Turkish Female Volleyball Player).

In Egyptian dialect we also Oda (room) different pronunciation than Lebanese, Arabia for Car, Afnadi (old Egyptian for man). aslan for originally. doghrie for straight (direction), Saraya for palace So six words so far. I was surprised Lebanese use Arabia, they usually say “Sayara” for car. I would love to be in one of these videos if you ever do one for Egyptian dialect. 🫰🏼❣️

Cheers Bahador jan, as always, very interesting. Reckon Iraqi dialect has got hundreds of Turkish words in addition to Farsi words. Can think of Juzdan (female purse), Afandi (Mr), Chaquch (Hammer), Jamooce (buffalo), Chekmehche (gloves compartment), casseh (small glass or pot), Outti (iron), battaniya (blanket), tatli /datli (sweets), karabaligh (crowded), chalish (work sth out), chattal (fork), khashoogeh (spoon), janta or chanta (bag), chole (desert), dalgha, damerchi, dondirmeh, zengeen, sikallah, shafqa/shabqa, sheqa (joking / bantering), sheesh, tawa, tepsi, tokhom taqim, qamchi, lahaneh, ligan, zuqaq, malzameh, yatak/yatagh, Jam (glass),bostal(boot), belki, mandeleh, boyeh, pecheh, tappeh, taras, -siz (adab-siz, damagh-siz), tittin, chamollogh, khatoon, khawli, khortoosh, khwardeh, dosheq, dulab, racheteh, sedyeh, sirreh, sarai, serseri, sobeh, armut, fatooreh, yehwash, qarish-warish, qawoosh, qabagh, qachak, qappoot, qaryoleh, qaimar/qaimak, karack, kalabcheh, lambeh, masheh, mandar, yaleg. There are many many other words that are actually fading and new generation isn't using anymore and I think my comment is too long enough to stop right here, damet garm janam shad bashi.

We have Balki in Hindi, but it means “in fact”.

As a Lebanese i was able to recognise mamy words. I guess the people of the mediterenean are being mixed together since ever. Food, tradition, languages, dna,....

The biggest similarity may be that they host millions of Syrians.

Sefa and Merva both names are Arabic of Safaa and Marwa .. the name of two holly hills of Mecca.

So in Hijazi Arabic (especially older one.. like what grandparents speak) we use: 1. Doghri (it means directly, straight) 2. Belkin (We say Belkin, not Belki) 3. Afandim or Afandi, both are used.. but this word especially is very rare, and usually used in sarcastic way only. Like a mother saying to her son (where are you going this late at night Afandi!?) 4. Tanjara 5. Tanbal (in our dialect is means someone who is not focused or stupid or day-dreaming in a dumb way) 6. Aslan (this word is still used everyday until now) Other words like Oda, Araba, Adliye we would understand as well but we simply don't really use it.

❤❤❤❤❤ amazing

and today I'm flying to Istanbul...

I'm from Greece and I understood many words

Not to be confused with "Are you a lion from Istanbul?"

That was really interesting!! We hope to see Turkmen vs Iraqi Turkmen ❤

In fact, the original Arabs are Yemenis and Saudis. And the original Turks are the Mongols, not the Greeks who were Turkified، That is, neither the two Lebanese are Arabs nor the other two are Turks

My favorite Lebanese song is "Ay Khedma Ya Basha" by Dana Halabi. I think the "Basha" here comes from the Turkish "Pasha." 😄

In Lebanon We say “Siyyara” for car not Arabiyye

Good to know about this similarity

You forgot the most important element of any Levantine or Anatolian gathering: 😂 the Narghile or Nargile, which is argile أرجيلة in Bilad al-Sham, commonly known as Shisha. 😄

Some of these are Turkish origin words

The Lebanese words that have been quizzed are ALL of Turkish origin. All of them. Some of the Turkish words are of Arabic origin , like Adliyeh, Araba, ...... As for sentences, grammatical structures are totally different....

Get in touch with me next time! I am a Lebanese RU-vidr who compares languages and does language videos from time to time! Greetings from Beirut, Bahador!

❤ love it 🎉🎉🎉

Loanwords exist all languages, however what defines the origin of a language is the Grammer and structure.

we use the same words in Syria, I think it is from the Ottoman period

We say them all in the Iraqi Arabic dialect as well!

You forget to shalbiye/çelebi. Greetings to fairuz's country from Turkey

Syrian damascus dialect, they say doghri to say go straight!

Not so much the words, but Merve's name is only one letter/sound from the Finnish name Mervi.

Turkic words in this video: 1- Oda: Room 2-Doğru: True, correct, right, direct 3-Yemek: Food, eat 4-Araba: Car (although it’s a bit disputed)

🇹🇷🇹🇷🐺

Some of these words are used in Jordan also 🇯🇴 like : doghri دُغري Jozdan جُزدان Balki بلكي Afandi أفندي Tanjara طنجرة😅 Tanbal/ Tambal تنبل/تمبل but we use it to describe someone who’s dumb 😆 These originally from Arabic Aslan اصلاً Adlia(3adlia) عدلية

I’m Assyrian and for car (arabana) and maybe(balkid) origin (Asla or asli)

9:24 many of the greek, Italian, Balkan, Turkish and Levantine middle eastern foods are very similar because many of those regions were influenced by greek, Byzantine, Roman and Ottoman Empire.

Around 90% of these Turkish loanwords are also used in Hijazi Dialect of Arabic (Western Saudi)..

👍 thanks all.

13:00 lion from İstanbul 😊?

Wow I love both Lebanese and Turkish food! 🥙🥗🌯😋

Some of the words were actually Persian like Araba in Ancient Iran Arrabe was a chariot and still we call chariot árrabe ,another one was Oda ,in Persian its Otagh ,and the word Belki is also Persian ,we say Bálke

Vous avez oublié l expression turque MAALESEF, en arabe elle se dit en 2 mots : مع الاسف MA'A El ASAF.......Çanta se dit shanta en arabe mais c est une valise et non pas un sac à main.

According to Arabs, all the words in the world are Arabic. Your language is Semitic, and most of the Arabic words originate from ancient Semitic languages(Akkadian..) ​​and ancient Egyptian language. The sound of Turkish is much better than Arabic because Arabic is a language spoken from the throat and its sound is very bad.

Sayın Alast bey ve ekibi. Her zamanki gibi güzelleyici ve birleştirici bir video olmuş. Gün gelecek insanlık yeniden tek bir kabile halinde birbirine kavuşacak. Hepimizin özü zaten aynı. Ellerinize sağlık. Türk takipçinizden sevgiler, saygılar.

عالی بود 😍👍🏽

Indeed many words have made it from Arabic to Turkish and vice versa. Belki is Turkish. Ooda as well I think. Other Arabic words that entered Turkish not mentioned here such as Etfa’iye which means fire brigade, and dunia which means world. Many Lebanese think the salutation Marhaba is Turkish, but it’s actually an old Syriac salutation which means God (the master) is love. Mar-haba. Two words.

Aromanian language and Romanian Aromanian: Udã - room Romanian: Odaie - room Romanian: Ghiozdan - packpack Aromanian: Trastu(Albanian trastë) Aromanian: (A)fendi - Master/Sir/Father Romanian: Tată/Domn/Străpân(Latin, Latin, Old Slavon Aromanian: Tingeri - pan Romanian: Tingire - pan

The origin of "efendi" is Greek, authentic

Very nice video. Lebanese seems different from Arabic

❤

Albanian: od= room oda= rooms/the room raba(Tetovo dialect)= car or "arabá" in old Albanian Adliye= my grandma's name is Adliye😂 tenxhere(tencere)= cooking pot penxhere(pencere)= window dembel= lazy

Paleo-Hebrew: ba-la-bayth Lebanese: bel bet

Mauthli vs bengali please

In Persian we also have these words some of them

The Lebanese men are part of the Maronite Christian community of Lebanon which at one point made up the majority of the population but their numbers have decreased

Usually we see arabic originated words but this time there are turkish words I’m shocked

Why Lebanese? And not Lebanese Arabic

Turkcede bir suru arapca kelime var iste. Keske hepsini atsalarmis. Sadece Turkce kelimeler kalsaymis.

Isn’t it funny that the turks have Arabic names and the Arabs have English names?

Can you do Albanian vs Turkish? Im guessing turkish must have been heavily influenced by Albanian since there are like 10-15 million ethnic albanians in turkey.

All the similar words between the two languages is from turkish origin except the word araba which is from old standard arabic origin that mean anything that runs on four wheels.

Lebanese is not a language

á Bil Venda kl ML kr£

Lebanese and Turkish totally different, just some common word

That’s surprising we didn’t see racism from the turks😂😂

Love this. Since Turkey is a multi continental country and given the Islamic populations not shocking the similarities they would have with Lebanon.

I avoid using turkish words i prefer using words from arabic semitic root

Most words are in Arabic or Persian origin, through hundreds of years languages intertwined in each other, nothing surprising actually.

How come Turkish actresses are not doing more to promote Islam? I have watched many Turkish shows and follow them and I see no talking about Islam especially when there is so much Islamophobia in the world.

Turkey = mangolia language
