    Perceptual Dialectology and GIS in Kurdish 1 Full title: A perceptual dialectological approach to linguistic variation and spatial analysis of Kurdish varieties Main Author: Eva Eppler, PhD, RCSLT, Mag. Phil Reader/Associate Professor in Linguistics Department of Media, Culture and Language University of Roehampton | London | SW15 5SL [email protected] | www.roehampton.ac.uk Tel: +44 (0) 20 8392 3791 Co-author: Josef Benedikt, PhD, Mag.rer.nat. Independent Scholar, Senior GIS Researcher GeoLogic Dr. Benedikt Roegergasse 11/18 1090 Vienna, Austria [email protected] | www.geologic.at Short Title: Perceptual Dialectology and GIS in Kurdish Perceptual Dialectology and GIS in Kurdish 2 Abstract: This paper presents results of a first investigation into Kurdish linguistic varieties and their spatial distribution. Kurdish dialects are used across five nation states in the Middle East and only one, Sorani, has official status in one of them. The study employs the ‘draw-a-map task’ established in Perceptual Dialectology; the analysis is supported by Geographical Information Systems (GIS). The results show that, despite the geolinguistic and geopolitical situation, Kurdish respondents have good knowledge of the main varieties of their language (Kurmanji, Sorani and the related variety Zazaki) and where to localize them. Awareness of the more diverse Southern Kurdish varieties is less definitive. This indicates that the Kurdish language plays a role in identity formation, but also that smaller isolated varieties are not only endangered in terms of speakers, but also in terms of their representations in Kurds’ mental maps of the linguistic landscape they live in.

  • Kurdish Studies REGIONAL VARIATION in KURMANJI
    Article history: Received 1 Apr. 2014; last revision 5 July 2014; accepted 6 July 2014 Regional variation in Kurmanji: A preliminary classification ERGİN ÖPENGİN . of dialects GEOFFREY HAIG Abstract Investigation of the regional variation in Kurmanji, especially its varieties spoken in Turkey, has been almost entirely neglected in the existing literature on Kurdish. In addition to earlier isolat- ed examinations of Kurmanji dialects (cf. MacKenzie, 1961; Ritter, 1971, 1976; Blau, 1975; Jastrow, 1977), native-speaker researchers have recently provided a substantial amount of dia- lect material across the Kurmanji-speech zone. However, a methodologically-informed evalua- tion of these observations into a dialect classification is yet to be undertaken. This article aims at providing an initial classification of Kurmanji-internal variation into major regional dialects, based on lexical, phonological and morphosyntactic data collected from five localities in South- eastern Turkey. Keywords: Kurdish; Kurmanji; regional variation; dialect; linguistic distance. Cihêrengiya zimanî ya navxweyî di kurmanciyê de: tesnîfeke seretayî ya zaravayan Di nav xebatên li ser zimanê kurdî de, heta niha, vekolîna cudatiyên devok û zaravayên kurmanciyê, bi taybetî ewên di nav sînorên Tirkiyeyê de, hema bi temamî hatiye piştguhkirin. Ji bilî çend xebatên serbixwe 143 yên pêştir li ser zaravayên kurmancî (wek MacKenzie 1961; Ritter, 1971 û 1976; Blau, 1976; Jastrow 1977), di nav van salên dawî de vekolerên kurdîziman qewareyeke mezin a dane û materyelên ji gelek zaravayên kurmanciyê berhev kirine. Lê belê, hêj ev çavdêriyên berbelav bi rengekî metodolojîk nehatine nirxandin ku tesnîfeke zaravayan jê bi dest bikeve. Ev meqale dil dike tesnîfeke seretayî ya zaravayên serekî yên kurmanciyê pêşkêş bike li ser bingehê daneyên peyvî û fonolojîk û rêzimanî yên li pênc deverên başûr- rojhilatê Tirkiyeyê berhevkirî.

    The Meter and the Literary Language of Gūrānī Poetry Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades der Doktorin der Philosophie an der Fakultät für Geisteswissenschaften der Universität Hamburg Asien-Afrika-Institut vorgelegt von Parvin Mahmoudveysi Hamburg 2016 1. Gutachter: Herr Professor Dr. Ludwig Paul 2. Gutachter: Herr Professor Dr. Philip G. Kreyenbroek Datum der Disputation: 04 März 2016 To my best friends: Kobra, Rebin, Denise and Nick Acknowledgements As the author of this thesis, I wish to acknowledge the support of many friends who helped me in this work. First of all, I would like to honor my colleague, Carsten Bettermann, who sadly forever left us at a young age. I was lucky to have many interesting discussions with him about the form of Old and Middle Iranian versification. Furthermore I had the good fortune to participate in his courses on Avestan and Middle Persian. He even kindly arranged a course for versification in Avestan. He greatly supported me as I prepared the section in this dissertation on Old Iranian languages. The death of this unbelievably talented person was a great loss for all the colleagues and students in the Asien-Afrika-Institut at the University of Hamburg. I would like to thank my professors Ludwig Paul, Philip Kreyenbroek, and Omid Tabibzadeh, who during the course of my studies have always supported me. I owe a debt of gratitude to two kind friends, Peter Keil and his wife Marie-Luise Keil, for their support. Peter Keil very kindly translated for me ten articles from French into German (Jean Kellens 2006; Jerzy Kuryłowicz 1952 and 1972; Gilbert Lazard 1984, 1985, and 1990; Antonie Meillet 1900 and 1925; Eric Pirart 2004; Hermann Trödel 1874).

Tous droits réservés 1 NOTE DE LA RÉDACTION Ce numéro triple d'Abstracta Iranica 34-35-36 marque un renouvellement de la revue. Sa mise en ligne suit de peu celle du numéro 32-33 (publications de 2009 et 2010) dont la publication en ligne a été retardée par des problèmes techniques à résoudre entre les éditeurs de la revue et de l'Open Edition du fait du caractère particulier de la revue. Ce nouveau numéro, qui recense les publications de 2011-2012-2013, est directement mis en ligne dans son état actuel. Il ne donnerait lieu à une version papier que s'il y avait une forte demande. C'est un numéro « ouvert » présentant les recensions reçues depuis plusieurs mois jusqu'à ceux acceptés depuis le printemps et il restera ouvert jusqu'en juillet 2017, date à laquelle démarrera le numéro suivant. Dorénavant, la mise en ligne sera opérée plusieurs fois par an, après cette première livraison, par paquet de 100 à 200 comptes rendus.

  • 1 KERMANSHAH Vii. Languages and Dialects Kermanshah Province (Henceforth Kermanshahan, for Brevity and Distinctness from Kermans

Languages and Dialects,” Encyclopædia Iranica, Vol. 16, Fasc. 3, New York, 2017, pp. 327-331. KERMANSHAH vii. Languages and Dialects Kermanshah Province (henceforth Kermanshahan, for brevity and distinctness from Kermanshah, the city) is linguistically characterized by a triad of Kurdish, Gurāni (q.v.), and Persian within a multifaceted, areal-tribal-social setting. These are supplemented by Neo-Aramaic (q.v.), which, until lately, was spoken in pockets by area Jewry, as well as an isolated Turkic dialect spoken in the Sonqor valley. The languages of Kermanshahan spread into the neighboring provinces and across the national border into Iraqi Kurdistan, forming a complex set of dialect continua and isolated pockets. Kermanshahan’s linguistic arrangement has not been systematically studied in detail, nor is the number of speakers of individual dialects known. In broad picture, Kurdish forms the linguistic backdrop of the province; Gurāni is spoken in several western and northwestern settlements; and Persian is a means of formal and written communication, including mass media, but also a vernacular in urban centers, especially Kermanshah. Turkophones are reportedly notable only in Sonqor. In such a milieu, bilingualism in Kurdish and Persian is the norm. As Gurāni villages are usually within larger Kurdophonic settings (Figure 1), the Gurān are typically trilingual in Gurāni, Persian, and Kurdish. Gurāni is steadily losing ground to Kurdish (Šahbāzi, 2013). KURDISH The main Kurdish language groups spoken in Kermanshahan are Sorani or Central Kurdish in the northwest and Southern Kurdish in the rest of the province (Figure 1).

This is a study of processes of structural and functional diversification of the uses of three cognate verbs across the Indo-Iranian language family: “do/make”, “be/become”, and “give”. First, this study identifies over sixty distinct construction types in which these verbs are used, including complex predicate constructions, nominal predication constructions, serial verb constructions, and several distinct auxiliary constructions. Since the sets of verbs studied here are cognates, and share a common source, crosslinguistic differences in their uses are the result of grammatical change, and especially shared and parallel innovations of similar uses.
