Ataturk himself said that it was about 20 percent in 1926. They never claimed it to be 8 percent with the Arabic alphabet, but indeed Ottoman Turkish was hugely ineffective to be the standard language for a Turkish republic. The normal people couldn't really understand it, as only about 20 percent of the vocabulary was of Turkish origin. Also major parts of the grammar were directly copied from Arabic or Persian. The Ottoman Empire basically had 3 a 4 versions of Turkish of the same time, while the people's Turkish was hardly standardized or written down. That's also because the Arabic alphabet is not suitable for a language that is centered on vowel, while Arabic is centered on consonants.

Ottoman Turkish actually sounds nice to be honest.

Especially when it comes to poetry.

Language differences basically reflects how different the elites and the common people spoke. If we had such a system today it would actually be a nightmare the key to building a nation state is having a standardised language where everybody can speak it regardless of class.

Thats why French has easily supplanted a lot of the local languages in France. Same in Italy. German spoken by the numerous German states were actually different until German was standardised.
 
Important piece of Turkish political history.

Armenian intellectuals hanged by the Ottoman government were not actually innocent. They were tried for treason for calling on Armenians to support the Allies and rise up for a revolution.

Nowadays popular history made them "innocent".

Armenia has corrupted millions if not billions of girls through its creation 'Kim Kardashian" the non-productive whore that turns girls into sluts.

This is a genocide on the psychological level and its damage is beyond any that has been done in WW1. In Iraq a few months ago, Tara Fares some Insta girl got assassinated, however if you look at it from the bigger picture her entire influence was negative.

The only solution is the solution of the mutawa'een.

Imagine a bunch of so called intellectuals that live in a country that gave them benefits to live there while collarborating against the enemy and telling the enemy to invade.

By nature any country would put them to death for treason doesnt matter if they a engineers or doctors or even fcking astronauts.

In ww1 a German accounted how the Armenians felt during ww1. When the Central Powers were winning the Armenians would be sad if not angry when the Allies are winning the Armenians would be so happy.

Armenians in reality have contributed nothing. Only contribution is to the empires that ruled them or the countries they immigrated to.

The armenians spin this around about how they survived. They only surivived by being everybodys bitch.
