sumerian-turkish-word-comparison
Hello,
I have found approximately 160 words that are same or very similar to each other in Sumerian and Turkish Language.
As we know Sumerian Language is a SOV language like Turkish and they are both agglutinative.
There are other works about such comparisons but this one is mine. I didn't look at any other work and copied. The language experiences that I have helped me to find these similarities.
All Sumerian Words are from here:
http://oracc.museum.upenn.edu/epsd2/sux
![]() |
| Sumerian source for my comparison with Turkish words |
It looked like that as I want to see and compare the words at the end of 2020.
And now, I think I can publish my work. I can definitely say that it is definitely not complete. I didn't want to take the words, that they could be similar. The most of them below are words that are in shape and meaning same/very similar.
Now you can decide, if I am right or not:
