7 months agoOur first issue gathers three mother languages and their dialects within Turkey: Anatolian Greek, Ladino and Syriac. With an interest in everyday life, personal memories, and cultural production, Anadil Dergisi brings together not only those who work and produce in these languages, but also contributors who speak them, are learning them, or have never had the chance to learn them, embracing plurality over standardization. Given the discourse surrounding the survival of these mother tongues, we are especially delighted to have received contributions by so many young people that are striving to keep them alive!
