What city accent is considered as the standard for Kurmanji?

PostAuthor: ocmentos » Tue Mar 08, 2011 5:44 pm

In the Sorani dialect, there is a standard language for writing. It is the accent of the city of Sulaimania with a few modifications. No matter where you are if you want to write good, you use this standard accent. I was wondering if Kirmanji had the same? Is it the Duhoki accent or Diyarbakir? Or does everyone write anyway they want??

slemanyi accent doesnt use letter "d" at the begging of the present/future tense verbs, while in most of the books which i saw these verbs are written with "d", so till now i am confused about it.

its based on bohtan kurmanji. but it could be better with unified kurmanji or modified bohtan kurmanji.

that is what i meant by modification.. till up to the 90's most books were not written with "de" but with "e".. but later on they decided that it is better as "de" for a more unified script.... one other modification for the standard was to put "dí" instead of "tr" if you want to say another... but other than these it is all slemani no one would write "derém"(hawleri accent) for "i say" but there are lots who still write "ellém" (slemani accent) also other accents like the iranian (xase/ willatman hes) no body writes like this or karkuki ( roshtman?) i think.... It is all the Slemani accent due to the fact it has the most writers and readers.

its based on bohtan kurmanji. but it could be better with unified kurmanji or modified bohtan kurmanji.

what is that is it an accent from turkey ???

bohtan. its the one kurmanji spoken in bohtan region. from northern zaxo to south of Wan lake. Including northern zaxo, şirnex, west mêrdîn, west batman, south bedlîs, sêrt. its not the one spoken in amed. The standard is bohtan because Celalet Bedirxan was the first who searched for a writing language/standardization (in latin) and therefor its bohti. but i thing there are need for modification or change like they did in sorani like you sad.

Celadet bedirxan yes we study this in our kurdish books in school, and his brother Dr.Mikael if I remember correct were the first one to publish a Kurdish newpaper, That's actually good the location I mean it is in the center of kirmanj speakers, but ye if they modified it a bit to unify the diyarbakir and duhoki accent with it would be really good. Thanks for your answer and info it was helpful :)
