The Kurdish language is an Indo-European language spoken in Kurdistan, a large geographical region in the Middle East. Despite having a large number of speakers, Kurdish is among the less-resourced languages and has not seen much attention from the IR and NLP research communities. This paper reports on the outcomes of a project aimed at providing essential resources for processing Kurdish texts...

comparing two pedagogical models: traditional and modern. The model relies on form-focused repetition, while the modern model, inspired by Cognitive Grammar, adopts a meaning-oriented approach, emphasizing coherent category formed various senses of linguistic unit. study highlights significance polysemy in grammar instruction, arguing that negative prefix encompasses multiple beyond its morphol...

Drawn from focus groups composed of fifty-five Kurdish young people in Diyarbakır, Başer and Çelik’s article concerns the young Kurds’ description of the Kurdish issue in Turkey and their visions of peace. In recognition of their social and political agency, the article focuses on the Kurdish young people’s framing of both the conflict and peace, based on their individual everyday observations ...

A morphological analyzer, a significant component of many natural language processing applications, especially for morphologically rich languages, divides an input word into all its composing morphemes and identifies their roles. This paper introduces comprehensive analyzer Central Kurdish (CK), also known as Sorani, low-resourced with morphology. Building upon the limited existing literature, ...

The paper proposes to examine two variables in connection with the Kurdish presence in Turkey: 1) the intensity of expression of Kurdish nationalism, and 2) repercussions of the Kurdish question on Turkey.

We show that the number of length- n words over a k -letter alphabet having no even palindromic prefix is same as unbordered words, by constructing an explicit bijection between two sets. A slightly different but analogous result holds for those odd prefix. Using known results on borders, we get asymptotic enumeration (resp., odd) obtain nontrivial Finally, similar square prefix, thus proving 2...

During recent decades, recognizing letters was a considerable discussion for artificial intelligence researchers and recognize letters due to the variety of languages and different approaches have many challenges. The Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are framed based on particular application such as recognition pattern and data classification through learning process is configured. So, it is ...

The left-wing Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) began its violent insurgency campaign against the Turkish state in 1984, claiming that an independent Kurdistan should exist. However, the origins of this conflict can be traced back even further – to the inception of the Turkish Republic in 1923.

In order to investigate the origins and relationships of Kurdish-speaking groups, mtDNA HV1 sequences, eleven Y chromosome bi-allelic markers, and 9 Y-STR loci were analyzed among three Kurdish groups: Zazaki and Kurmanji speakers from Turkey, and Kurmanji speakers from Georgia. When compared with published data from other Kurdish groups and from European, Caucasian, and West and Central Asian ...
