The usage of living Turkism in bosnian in teaching Turkish as a foreign language in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Level A1

In 1966, Abdulah Škaljić with his dictionary named Turcizmi u srpskohrvatskom jeziku showed us the mutual vocabulary of Bosnian and Turkish at that time. The aim of this thesis is to determine the existence of those common words in contemporary Bosnian and Turkish. This study is based on the work of Abdulah Škaljić Turcizmi u srpskohrvatskom jeziku, S.Halilović, I. Palić, A. Šehović Rječnik bosanskoga jezika, and TDK Güncel Türkçe Sözlük. With this research, it has been evaluated how much of the derived words have been used since 1966 and how much of the same words are still in use in the current Turkish language and then what are the changes of meaning for those words. Besides this, Haydi Türkçe Öğrenelim book set used in Teaching Turkish as a Foreign Language in Bosnia and Herzegovina on A1 level was examined on how much of those derived words were used in the mentioned book.
