Draeris 3124 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Karamanoğulları scholar and Böö Altamiş KARAMAN DIL KURUMU THE KARAMAN LANGUAGE ASSOCIATION The origins of the Karamanic language are well-recorded in history: its primitive form spoken by the great Subudai from the previous realms. After the fragmentation of the Subudai tribe, most Türkin and Nicatorii peoples adopted Qalasheeni linguistic characteristics. The Karamanoğulları however remained to speak their original language, separating themselves from their Konchak or Basrid contemporaries over the course of many centuries. Today, if all the Nicatorii and Türkin descendants would converse in one room: none would be able to understand the other. Böö Altamiş had predicted that the Karamanoğlu might lose their cultural control over their own identity, stating: “As tribes come and go, the Farfolk people handle their identities flexibly. A schism here, a cultural conversion there: and a new tribe is born, until it is defeated again. A man wears an iron mask and learns our tongue, to then suddenly claim he is one of us with a different cultural interpretation. What happens if they do this to our faith? Claim entire bloodlines to their fabrication? Before we know it, they’ll call us West-Karamani and them East-Karamani: even though they carry no drop of Karamanoğulları blood.” From this sentiment, he founded the Karaman Dil Kurumu or The Karaman Language Association. In its second publication, but the first one distributed throughout the realm, it establishes what Karamani tongue is. GREETINGS Good morning, İyi sabahlar Good day, İyi Günler Good evening, İyi geceler Hello, Merhaba Goodbye, Hoşçakal CONVERSATIONAL SENTENCES Welcome friend, Hoş geldin, Arkadaş Please sit, Lütfen otur You may lend my steed, Atımı kiralayabilirsin.

Monomakhos 1849 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Begovars of the Csertan glanced over the document, scratching his head. “They will fight for the fact that these words are all Karamani, but many are similar if not the same as the Kadaksleri language. And changing their word for thief to Konchak? Surely, these western Turkin don’t think us so stupid not to notice their petty insults? Mayhaps I wounded Başıl’s pride during the Matrak. Oh well! I say to him once and I say again that he will realize the folly in his struggle against modernity and the light of Ilah.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say to him once and I say again that he will realize the folly in his struggle against modernity and the light of Ilah.” Başıl smirked as he followed the ink lines with his fingers: tracing the many lineages of the Farfolk on a grotesque scroll displayed on his floor. He was fascinated by the fleeting existence of former peoples, that came and went under many banners and cultures. His head started to hurt after tracing most of the lines: each one a component of a large web of different colors of ink, tying the historical peoples together. While the Karamanoğulları had a satisfying straight line leading towards The Subudai: Başıl couldn't help but wonder why there was one name in the right lower corner. “Konchak” he muttered, his finger circling the word. Unlike the others, it had no lines on the scroll. The word seemingly wasn't tied to anything: appearing lonelier than a citizen of Suffonia. “Why are they on this scroll..” Başıl asked to himself, scratching his head “Aren't they Adrian?” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
