ROMEİKA

[@trackjock]

Your videos have allowed me to experience, first hand, the unique and fascinating language of my Pontic grandfather (a young refugee from Tekkeköy). Thank you, Mehmet, for helping to keep the Paliemun Logarizun alive.

Giasou Petre, do you still speak pontic? Ta leme, apo to Velgio!

[@trackjock]

@@stefaanvermeire4511 Yiasou Stefaan, unfortunately I do not speak the language. We spoke Standard Greek at home. My family lived in Genk then Hamburg before finally settling in Toronto. I would love to visit the Samsun and Trabeson area one day (it's on my bucket list). Do you have relatives from that area?

Το μοιρολόι της με συγκίνησε βαθύτατα, μου θύμισε τη δική μου γιαγιά, όσο για τα Ρωμαίικα που μίλαγε τα έλεγε τόσο όμορφα! Να είστε καλά και να χαίρεστε ό,τι αγαπάτε. Εύχομαι να ζούμε σε ειρήνη και να μπορούμε να επικοινωνούμε.

Rom or Rum are not turkish...its like you say a turk is a italian or german...it is impossible...

Это понтийский язык во время захвата турками греческих земель они оказались под турецким игом заставляли людей принять мусум веру но понтийцы все равно свою веру сохранили одно не пойму почему берут турецкие имена как молодежь знает язык ? И какому богу они молятся?

Questions for Mehmet: 1. Can you read and write in Romeika? If so, what alphabet do you use? 2. Do you feel uncomfortable speaking Romeika around people who don't speak it? 3. Aside from English, Turkish, and Romeika, what other language do you know?

[@davannacarter]

I was reading a story about Romeika speakers who said they felt uncomfortable when someone asked them, "What language are you speaking." I was just wondering why they'd feel uncomfortable. But it's a great language anyway. People need an alphabet for a language to grow. Whether Turkish, Arabic, Greek, or whatever, an alphabet is needed to sustain the language. So many languages die out because they do not have an alphabet. Without an alphabet, how do you record your songs, proverbs, stories, poems, etc.?

[@yusufozdogan5701]

+Deniz Metinoğlu T. Deniz what must be in Turkish? Officail language approach is common for nearly whole world however any people may talk in the language they prefer. There is no issue with that. Turkey welcomes all minorities and all other cultures.

[@Laşmeron]

Hello my friend. Sorry for late answering...I saw it now... 1- No, I can't read and write with Ellenica, only speaking Romeika. 2- No, I'm comfortable and there is no problem. 3- I know a little bit German and less French. Thank you...Take care... kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5mZY56on96Uack

[@davannacarter]

thanks for these vids. wish you'd translate it into english tho.

[@Laşmeron]

I'd but it's very difficult. Some of people who know Pontus language (old greek language) who live in Trabzon, they talk to us about their new or old life in Romeika...

[@theokyr7724]

I understand almost everything! Thank you for uploading these fascinating videos!

[@davannacarter]

How can you understand it? Are you Greek or Turkish?

[@theokyr7724]

I'm Greek. The dialect spoken in these videos is very widespread in northern Greece. I am very glad that it still survives in Pontus! Congratulations to the uploader!

[@davannacarter]

If I learned Greek, would I be able to understand this dialect? Is it closer to Greek or Turkish?
