DIE GESCHICHTE DES TÜRKEN - THE HISTORY OF TURKS

Back


The word Türk ment "strong" in the Old Turkic language. Nowadays, it is either a reference to a member of the Turkic peoples or to a member of the Turkish ethnicity. Additionally, it is also used as a reference to the citizens of Turkey. The word "Türk" itself is a later form of "tu-kin", name given by the Chinese to the people living south of the Altai Mountains of Central Asia as early as 177 BC. The English word "Turkey" is derived from the Medieval Latin "Turchia" (c.1369), which is taken from the native Turkish name Türkiye ("Land of the Turks"), consiting of the word "Türk" and the Arabic abstract suffix -iye, which means "owner" or "related to". The term "Türk" or "Türük" which means derivative from OTr "tür" (genus, species, type) was first used as an autonym in the Orkhon inscriptions of the Göktürks (Sky Turks) of Central Asia.

The term Turk had negative connotations in Europe that were established during the Crusades and the period of Ottoman expansion. In medieval Christian European circles, it was used interchangeably with the term Muslim and generally had such derogatory connotations as infidel and savage. It is a neutral term related to ethnicity in Turkic languages.

The Turkish term, Türk, can also be used with several meanings. In official use, it generally refers to Turkish citizens. Colloquially, it is often used to refer to Turkish ethnicity. The inability or unwillingness to distinguish between the two meanings is a cause of much friction in Turkish society. In Turkish, the word Türk can also mean "Turkish" as, for example, in ''Türk müziği: "Turkish music". The word Türki is used to refer to Turkic elements present in a larger geography, and Türkmen, in Turkey, is not only the name given to brethren in the Caucasus, Middle East and Central Asia, but also, within the borders of Turkey, to those parts of the population, usually rural, who have preserved some kind of attachment with the former semi-nomadic lifestyle (yörüks that live through folklore and traditions, in arts like carpet-weaving, with the continued habit of keeping a yayla house for the summers, sometimes in relation to the Alevi community etc.).

DerIslamIstDoof Cengiz Han schreibt in einem Brief, das fast seine ganze Armee aus Türken besteht. Ausserdem haben sich unsere Ahnen nicht im Islam ergeben sondern JAHRHUNDERTE diese Religion angeführt! Sitzen, sechs!!!!

ein türke zu sein ist schon etwas besonderes, dafür brauchen wir solche videos nicht, um es zu beweisen

Ach komm schon schieb dir dein Kreuz in deinen fundmentalistischen Arsch rein.

Naja, die wenigsten Türken wollen wahrhaben, dass sie erst vor den Mongolen davongelaufen sind und sich dann den Arabern und ihrem Islam ergeben mussten. Das passt nicht zum überblähten Nationalstolz.

Oh, btw: Ich kann nichts für meinen Nick, ER (Der Alles weiß und Nichts verrät, sein Segen sei mit uns auf all unseren Wegen) hat ihn mir eingegeben. Beweise dafür in meinen Videos "Weitere Wunder in meinem Nick 1+2" + "Wer ist ER ...". Echt, ich bin total unschuldig.
