Abstract

ÖZ

Lezgiler, Kafkasya’nın en eski halklarından biridir. Dağıstan’ın güneydoğusu

ile Azerbaycan’ın kuzey doğusunda yoğun olarak yaşamaktadırlar. İslamiyet ve

Araplar ile VII. asırda, İslam fetih hareketleri sayesinde tanışmışlar ve sonrasında

da Müslüman olmuşlardır. Araplardan sosyal, siyasal ve kültürel olarak etkilenmenin

yanı sıra, dil yönünden de etkilenmişlerdir. Birçok Arapça kelime Lezgi

dilinde kullanılmaya başlanmıştır.

Bu makale, Lezgi Dili’nde kullanılan Arapça sözcükler hakkındadır. M.

Gaciyev’e ait “Rusko-Lezginski Slovar” (Rusça-Lezgice Sözlük) isimli eser titizlikle

tespit edilmiştir. Lezgi dilinde kullanılan Arapça alıntı kelimeler, kullanıldıkları

alan yönünden incelenerek tasnif edilmiş ve Arap dili morfolojisi bakımından

da incelenmiştir. Daha sonra Arapça alıntı kelimelerin Lezgi dilindeki yüzdelik

oranı belirlenmiştir.

Arapça alıntı sözcüklerin tasnifinde her bir sözcüğün Krilce yazılışı, Latince

okunuşu, Arapça karşılığı, Türkçe okunuşu ve Lezgi dilinde ifade ettiği anlamı

verilmiştir. Son sütunda ise Arapça kelime yapısı (morfoloji) açısından emsile-i

muhtelifesi yer almaktadır.
