Introduction iii

Introduction

This dictionary is, to our knowledge, the first comprehensive


Turkmen/English dictionary to be printed.

It consists of over 10,000

words and definitions and is intended as a general-purpose dictionary.


This dictionary was conceptualized, researched, and written as a
secondary project of Peace Corps volunteers living in Turkmenistan,
aided by Peace Corps staff and local counterparts.

Its first printing

was funded by a Small Project Assistance grant from the United States
Goverment through Peace Corps Turkmenistan.

We hope that it will aid in

communication and mutual understanding between the people of our two


countries.
Please direct any comments, corrections, or ommissions to Turkmen
Dictionary Project, c/o Peace Corps Turkmenistan, P.O. Box 258,
Krugozor, Central Post Office, Ashgabat 744000.

Notes on Method

Every attempt was made to find the most reasonable and accurate
translation for all words. In cases where a single Turkmen word has no
single equivalent in English, multiple possible translations are
separated by a comma, i.e.:

ekisme

discussion, debate

When a word has various meaning in Turkmen, the multiple meanings


are separated by numbers, i.e.:

gujak

1. embrace

2. armfull

When a two completely different words are spelled alike, their


different meanings are separated by Roman numerals, i.e.:

saz

I. music, musical

II. accurate, intact

Introduction vi

Where two words are spelled alike, but differentiated by a long


vowel (see Appendix), they are listed as above, with the long vowel
indicated by the vowel letter in brackets, i.e.:

at

I. horse

II.[a:] 1. name

2. vowel

Occasional examples of usage are given to help readers understand


the word in context, or understand how the word is used in an idiomatic
way.

In this case, the illustrated word is followed by a colon, which

is followed by the example, i.e.:

dek

like, as:

Bu bur dek ajy = This is hot as a pepper

In most cases, part of speech is obvious and ommitted in the


interest of conserving space.

However, when the part of speech is would

otherwise be ambiguous, it is indicated.


When single-word translations are impossible, or clarification of
usage is necessary, editorial text is written in italics.
or two word comments, parentheses are used.

Brief Introduction to the Turkmen Language

The Turkmen Language belongs to the greater family of Turkic


languages.

The Turkic languages, together with the Mongolian and

Manchu-Tungus languages, form the Altaic language group.

Specifically,

Turkmen is included in the sub-group of Southern Turkic languages, along


with Turkish and Azeri.

Among all the Turkic languages, there are

similar grammatical structures, similar phonetics and some shared


vocabulary.
In some ways Turkmen is an easy language to learn.
or Spanish, Turkmen has no genders.

Unlike Russian

There are no irregular verbs.

For

the most parts, words are written exactly as they are pronounced.
Finally, Turkmen's grammatical case system is remarkably simple once
understood, and has almost no exceptions.
The greatest difficulty for beginning Turkmen speakers will
probably be adapting to Turkmen's elaborate system of grammatical
suffixes, or "tag words" and learning to re-order their speech so that
the predicate (verb) is the last thing spoken.

Also, many simple

English grammatical structures (such as "to have", "to need", or "to be


able to") are handled differently in Turkmen.

Brief Dicussion of the Alphabets

The Turkmen alphabet was first written in Arabic, until about


1930, when a Latin script was introducted.

The Latin script was

replaced in 1940 when all Turkic people in the Soviet Union were
required to adopt the Cyrillic script.

Finally, in 1995, the "Tze

Elipbii" or New Alphabet, was formally introduced by the President to


re-align Turkmenistan with the non-Soviet world.

(Similar new alphabets

have been introduced in Uzbekiztan and other republics.)


The New Alphabet is currently used for street signs and political
slogans, but there is a severe deficit of other reading materials.
Almost all Turkmen books in print use the Cyrillic alphabet, and despite
the national-wide trainings that have taken place, and televised
instructional programs, the New Alphabet has yet to gain popular
acceptance.

1.3

Learning the New Alphabet

The new alphabet is much easier for native English speakers to


read and understand than is the Cyrillic, and also seems better suited
to the Turkmen language.

For this reason we have used it in the grammar

discussions of this text.

Most all letters are pronounced more or less

like their English counterparts.

The unusual letters are as follows:

New Turkmen English Equivalent


Aa
always the long a, as in "father"

always the short a, as in "cat"

ch, as in "cheese"
Gg
when starting a word, voiced like the English "g" in "go".
Within words, voiced like the throaty "g" in "bag"
Ii
ee, as in see
Oo
always the long o, as in go

oo, as in good but rounder


Rr
r, pronounced with a slight trill
Uu
always the long u, as in flute

like u, but pronounced with rounded lips and higher in the


throat
Ww
w, as in "water" (in Russian words, v, as in "very")
Yy
i, as in sit

y, as in yes

ng, as in song

zh, as in pleasure (only found in Russian words)


?
sh, as in wash

Learning the Cyrillic Alphabet

The Cyrillic Alphabet is a little disorienting at first, since


many of the letters seem like English counterparts, but they're actually
not.

The Cyrillic alphabet is also not ideally suited to Turkmen, and

as a solution to this, several distinctly Turkic characters are present


in the Turkmen Cyrillic alphabet that not present in Russian Cyrillic.
Also, several Russian Cyrillic characters are only found in words taken
from Russian.
Five characters look and sound approximately like their English
counterparts.
Cyrillic
Aa
Kk
Mm
Oo
Tt

These are:

English
long a, as in "father"

long o, as in "go"

The following eight characters might look like English letters,


but unfortunately they're different.

Vowel Harmony

One very interesting feature of Turkmen is that all vowels can be


divided into two groups, the front vowels (ine ekimli sesler) and the
back vowels (ogyn ekimli sesler). Front vowels are pronounced higher
in the throat and are more nasal, while back vowels are pronounced lower
in the throat and are more guttural.
and .

The front vowels are , e, i, ,

The back vowels are a, y, o, and u.

The "harmony" lies in the

fact that all Turkmen words of Turkic origin are pronounced either
entirely with front vowels, like kdi (pumpkin) or kw? (shoes), or
with back vowels, like doganlyk (brotherhood) or mugallym (teacher).
Grammatical and verb suffixes also follow vowel harmony, being divided
into two groups for front-vowel words and back-vowel words.

For

example, the front-vowel plural suffix -ler would be added to kdi to


form the word for "pumpkins," whereas the back-vowel plural suffix -lar
would be added to mugallym to produce "teachers."

In short, front

vowels go with front vowels and back vowels with back.

Subsequent

Turkmen/English Dictionary 138

suffix appendices will more completely explain applications of this


rule.
Turkmen has many Russian words, such as telewizor (television) and
radio (radio), that have simply been incorporated into the language.
These are spelled exactly according to the original Russian and often
have both front and back vowels within one word.

Such is true for the

numerous Turkmen words of Persian and Arabic origin, such as kitap


(book), dkan (shop), and serdar (leader).

In these cases, consistent

with the general rule for vowel harmony in Turkmen, the final vowel of
the word determines the vowel harmony for suffixation.
Verbs in Turkmen adhere consistently to vowel harmony.

All verbs

belong to one of two groups determined by their infinitive forms: those


ending in -mak, and those ending in -mek.

The suffixes for all -mak

verbs have only back vowels, whereas only front vowels will be found in
the suffixes of -mek verbs.

Examples of this will follow in the

explanations of verb tenses.

1.6

Long and Short Vowels

Another interesting feature of Turkmen is the use of long and


short vowels.
"bar."

Short vowels are like those in English, like the a in

Long vowels simply require pronouncing short vowels for the

duration of two vowels.

Often this difference in duration is all that

distinguishes the meanings of two words, as in the pairs below:


SHORT

LONG

at

horse

at

name

gyz

get excited! (imperative)

gyz

girl

bil

know! (imperative)

bil

waist

ot

grass

ot

fire

extinguish! (imperative)

revenge

gurt

curd, dry cheese

gurt

wolf, worm

d?

come down! (imperative)

d?

dream

Vocal Transformations

Certain consonat combinations are rendered differently in spoken


Turkmen than their written forms would indicate.

For example, the nd of

mende (on my person) is pronounced "nn" when spoken (menne).

spoken transformations rendered in the new alphabet.

The Case System

Like Russian or German, Turkic languages have a system of


grammatical cases.

Cases are defined by changes that occur to a word

when it is placed in different grammatical context.

English has cases

for personal prounouns. For example: "I see him", "He sees me".
"Me sees he", "Him sees I".

Not:

Turkmen, however, has six cases, and these

cases are used for all words, not just personal prounouns.

The six

Turkmen cases are: the nominative, used for the subject of the sentence;
the possessive, similar to English possessives; the dative, used to show
directed action; the accusative, which is similar to the English "direct
object"; the time/place, which shows locality; and the instrumental,
which is used to show origin.
While six cases might seem a bit overwhelming at first, it should
be noted that the case suffixes simply replace our English prepositions
such as "from," "at," "with," "in," "on," and "to".

Also, the rules for

their use are remarkably simple and inflexible, unlike those of the
Russian cases.

4.0 Relative Clauses


Relative clauses are formed in Turkmen simply by using verb suffixes
based on the tense and vowel harmony of the verb. Who and which, used in
English to form relative clauses, are not used as such in Turkmen.
Relative clauses in the present tense are formed by adding the suffixes an and -n to the stems of MAK and MEK verbs, respectively:
geln adamlar = people who are coming
azan dostum = my friend who is writing
Sentence structure is as follows:
A?gabatdan geln adamlar olda durdular.
from-Ashgabat-coming-people-road-at-stopped
The people who are coming from Ashgabat stopped on the road.
Kitap azan dostum rjewde a?aar.
book-writing-my friend-Charjew-in-lives
My friend who is writing a book is from Charjew.
Relative clauses in the past are formed by adding -an and -en to the
stems of MAK and MEK verbs, respectively:
gelen adamlar = those who came
azan dostum = my friend who has written
Sentence structure is as follows:
Tejenden gelen adamlar kp idiler.
Tejen-from-came-people-much-they ate
The people who came from Tejen ate a lot.
Bu kitaby okanlar ony gowy diip tapdylar.
This-book-read (plural)-it-good-that-they found
Those who read this book found it (to be) good.
In the future tense, the definite future forms of the verb (-jak and jek) form the relative clauses. There are no unique suffixes:
Bizi klasymyzy okatjak mugallym Erandan geldi.
to-our-class-will teach-teacher-from Iran-came
The teacher who will teach our class came from Iran.
Gkdep gitjek okuwylar duralgasynda gara?yp durlar.
to Geok Depe-will go-students-stop-at-are waiting
The students who will go to Geok Depe are waiting at the stop.

Possessive Suffixes

Unlike English, the Turkmen language also adds a suffix to the


object of possession.

This may at times be redundant (Meni kakam

geldi. = My father-(my) came.) but often the possessive participle is


omitted (Kakam geldi. = Father-(my) came.) so the suffix alone shows
possession.

Nouns in Direct Relation

Turkmen contains certain pairs of nouns that are in "direct


relation," or which together illustrate a concept, exist without
use of the posessive suffixes.
For example, the general concept of
"bus stop" is rendered as awtobus duralgasy, whereas the posessive
awtobusy duralgasy would indicate "one bus's stop."
In these
direct relation pairs, the first noun, in its nominative form, acts
more as an adjective than a noun, specifying the genreal meaning of
the two-word concept.
Other examples are as such:
ma?yn agy=motor oil
miwe sogy=fruit juice
ylan deresi=snakeskin

(ma?yny agy=one car's oil)


(miweni sogy=one fruit's juice)
(ylany deresi=that snake's skin)

mekdep howlysy=schoolyard

(mekdebi howlysy=a school's yard)

Note that the second noun is in its "posessed" form with the appropriate
-i, -y, -si, or -sy ending.

8.0

Coparatives & Superlatives

To form the comparative, the -dan/den suffix (than) is added to the noun
being compared, and the suffix -rak or -rk is then added to the adjective. As
in the following examples, the -rak/rk ending is not mandatory:
Bu zmler ?ol zmlerden sji
Bu zmler ?ol zmlerden sjirk = These grapes are sweeter than those
grapes
The -rak/rk ending can be used to indicate a comparitive idea without
the actual comparative structure:
Olary knekleri kelterk = Their dresses are (generally) shorter.
To form the superlative, the words i or has (most) are added before the
adjective:
Maral meni i gowy okuwym = Maral is my best pupil.
Bu ma?ynlardan seniki has owadan = Of all these cars yours is the most
beautiful.
Sekizinji klaslary i kde okuwylaryny sala = Choose the most talented
pupils of the eighth grade.

Four Important Modal Verbs: otyr, atyr, dur, r

Four verbs in Turkmen, oturmak, atmak, durmak, and rmek,


have special 3rd person singular forms, otyr, atyr, dur, and r,
respectively, that can be used alone or with compound verb
structures to indicate a continuous action or the physical position
of something.
Personal endings are added to these 3rd person forms
as such:
men
sen
ol
biz
siz
olar

otyryn
otyrsy
otyr
otyrys
otyrsyyz
oyrlar

men
sen
ol
biz
siz
olar

atyrn
atyrsy
atyr
atyrys
atyrsyyz
atyrlar

men
sen
ol
biz
siz
olar

durun
dursu
dur
durus
dursuyz
durlar

*The 3rd person singular, r, is used alone only in certain


regional dialects.
Examples of the use of the three above forms are as follows:
Myrat ?u wagt atyr=Myrat is sleeping now.
Meni dostum mugallymlar jaynda otyr=My friend is sitting in
the teachers' room.
Ma?ynym mekdebiizi nde dur=My car is in front of your
school.
I n c o m p o u n d s t r u c t u r e s , t h e s e v e r b s ' m e a n i n g s a r e re t a i n e d
only in that they indicate the position of the doer of the action:
Ol okap atyr=He is reading. (while lying down)
Men a iip otyryn=I'm drinking tea. (while seated)
Ol tada to gidip dur=There's a party going on over there.
(in one
place)
Sag-aman i?lp rsiizmi?=Are you (safely) working?
(continuously)
Physical objects capable of continuous action but not movement
such as cars, refrigerators, electricity, and televisions, use dur
in compound structures:
Swet anyp dur=The lights are on.
Holodilnik i?lp dur=The refrigerator is running.
Duhowka anyp dur=The oven is hot (on).

Expressing Needs and Desires

Although in Turkmen there is a way to express a wish to do


something that parallels the English use of infinitives, such as
Men a imek islerin (I want to drink tea), a far more common
way to express desires involves a construction unlike any in
English, utilizing the verb gelmek as a helping verb: Meni a
iesim gelr (My-tea-drinking-comes).This would roughly translate
as "I want to drink tea." or "I feel like drinking tea."
The main
verb imek has the personal ending -esim added to the stem, with
gelmek in the 3rd person singular, gelr.
Note the use of
posessive pronouns rather than personal pronouns in the following
charts:

Double Verbs

Whereas in English we conjugate all verbs and place "and"


between them when two actions are done at once or at relatively the
same time, Turkmen employs a structure that puts the two verbs
together. The first verb is reduced to its stem and the participial
ending -yp or -ip, according to vowel harmony, is added.
The
ending of the second verb determines the doer of the action
indicated, as below.
Men dn nahar iip atdym.
Yesterday I ate and went to sleep.
Men radio dilp hat azaryn.
I'm listening to the radio and writing a letter.
This form may be used to express an action which has been or
will be completed before the expressed action of the second verb:
Biz iip gelris.
We ate before coming.

(lit. Weeat-come)

Nahar iip okuwa gidi!


Eat before going to school.
Swedi rip gat.
Go turn off the light.

(lit. Food-eat-to-school-go)

(lit. Light-turn off-come back)

Turkmen/English Dictionary 161

The participlial -ip and -yp endings have negative


counterparts, -mn and -man, also added to the stem of the first
verb
agalar imn okuwa gitdiler.
The children went without eating.
Okuwylar okaman sapaga gelrler.
The pupils come to the lesson without studying.

16.1 Expressing Ability: -p/-yp/-ip bilmek


A modal structure involving bilmek is used to convey the idea
of being able to do something.
Men Trkmene okap bilrin = I can read Turkmen
Ol Rusa azyp bilenok = He can't write Russian
Biz bazara gidip biljek dl = We won't be able to go to the
bazaar

16.2 Doing an Action for Someone: -p/-yp/-ip bermek


A modal structure involving bermek is used to express the
doing of an action for someone:
Men size jay salyp berdim = I built a house for you
?ol gapyny apyp bermesene = Don't close that door
?ol ksni saa alyp bererin = I'll give you that teacup
According to vowel harmony the main verb's stem is followed by
the participial ending -yp or -ip, and bermek appears according to
the doer of the action and the tense.

16.3 Attempted Action: -p/-yp/-ip grmek


A modal structure involving grmek is used to express the idea
o f t r y i n g t o d o s o m e t h i n g , o r t h e i d e a o f d o i n g- a n d - s e e i n g :
Bu nahary datyp gr = Try this food
Men pikir edip grein = Let me think about it (and see)
?ol knegi geip grdi = She tried on that dress

16.4 Anticipated Action: -jak/-jek bolmak

used to indicate the idea of being about to do something:
