The changes in the provinces, where Turkish was spoken a bit differently, are also seen in the languages of both communities. Mıntzuri indicates that the Turks, Kurds and Armenians in the Erzincan region pronounce all the words that start with “k” as “ğ.” He gives the examples of names of places such as Ğuruçay, Ğarataş, Ağğaya, and Ğarakaya and words such as ğardaş, ğına gecesi, and ğocağarı , which are used in daily life (Mıntzuri, 1996: 33-36). The impact of Turkish is also relected in Armenian literature. The Armenians, who spoke Turkish, which was the language of the dominant element, in their daily life, also published in this language. Many books on religious law and literary works, including Schütz’s prayer book of 1618 as the primary one among them, were written in Turkish with the Armenian alphabet. The fact that there are at least eight books that were written in Turkish with the Armenian alphabet on Nasreddin Hodja between the years 1837-1929 (Koz, 1994: 104) is a proof that the Hodja, who was one of the most important figures of the Turkish culture and thought, was accepted in the Armenian community to a great extent. Also many Armenian tombstones that were written in Turkish in cities such as Istanbul, Bursa, and Kayseri are still extant today. Akabi Story, which Vartan Pasha, who was one of the foundations of Turkish novel writing, wrote for the Armenians living in Istanbul, was printed in Turkish with Armenian alphabet. The reasons and grounds for the pasha writing his work in Turkish are important. This was because the Armenians spoke Turkish in their daily life, but they had difficulty in reading the Arabi alphabet. Although they leanred the Armenian letters at their own schools, they had difficulty in understanding the texs that were written in archaic Armenian. According to the Turkologist Tietze, the pasha himself did not like writing in Armenian either, he preferred the Armenian alphabet, which had been used for a long time, so that all the Armenians in Anatolia and Istanbul could read and understand it easily, but wrote his work in a way that was compatible with the daily Turlish language (Vartan pasha, 1991: IX-X). The word “âşık” (lover), which was derived from the word “’ashq” (love) in Arabic and which was used to mean a folk poet (who plays a stringed instrument), is used as “âşug” in Armeinan language. The Armenian aşuğs, which play in fairs, weddings, military parades, and cafes for entertainment purposes, prepared more than 400 works from the 12th century until the middle of 19th century.
