RFV discussion: January–February 2016
Tagged but not listed. Part of the long-running "is it or isn't it Turkish" debate (series). The lemma gets a page of Google Books htis, including one dictionary and what looks like a couple of uses. - -sche (discuss) 04:48, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
 * 123snake45 does not know Turkish very well. His Turkish is really poor. --88.251.55.24 15:55, 26 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Defined as verb "to telephone, to phone". ; . If attested, the form should be ranked as rare.
 * Some quotations found:
 * 1953, Türk dili, passage: "Baltalamak diyebildiğimiz halde kalemi emek ve telefonlamak niçin diyemiyelim ?"
 * DP note: Is in quotation marks; does it make it a mention? Given the title seems to say "Turkish language", is this a linguistic work?
 * 1946, Türkçeʾde kelime yapma yolları, passage: [...] (Telefon etmek, telefonlamak) gibi ulusal bir söyleyiş tarzı dururken tutup da Fıransızca mastar şeklini alarak (telephonner) demek, dili bozmak ve onun varlığına karşı saygısızlık etmek değil midir?
 * DP note: mention only? The book title suggests it could be a linguistic treatise.
 * 1964, Türk Dil Kurumu yayınları, passage: telefone etmek = telefonlamak (Fransızca masquer karşılığı maskelemek gibi)
 * DP note: Again seems to be a linguistic work, and it could be a mention.
 * 1930, Yeni Türk lûgati, passage: Telefonlamak [f] Telefon etmek, telefona çağırıp görüşmek.
 * DP note: Definitely a mention: a dictionary entry.
 * Does anyone know how to search for inflected forms? --Dan Polansky (talk) 10:16, 24 January 2016 (UTC)


 * It seems to conjugate like bağlamak, so the first person singular present simple is telefonlarım, etc. And judging from the hits that gets, it's attested: the question, raised in similar previous discussions, is whether it's Turkish or another Turkic language like Azeri. Plugging some of the results into Google Translate and asking it to translate from Azeri produces results only slightly less intelligible than asking it to translate from Turkish. Have any of our Turkish-speaking editors been active recently? , can you shed any light on whether this is Turkish or Azeri?
 * 1992, Fatih Çekirge, İktidar oyunu, page 29:
 * Biliyorsunuz benim telefonlarım dinlendi. Kiminle konuş- sam teşhis ediliyordu. Siz bütün bunlara rağmen benimle birlikte oldunuz. Güzel'in bu sözleri, iktidar oyunundaki çirkin dekorları gösteriyordu. Ne yazık ki, o oyunda Özal'ın yanında ...
 * -sche's note: Fatih Çekirge seems to be a Turkish author, suggesting that this word is Turkish

 * Seems to be amply attested, both in books and on the web (telefonlarız, telefonlarlar, etc). - -sche (discuss) 06:11, 8 February 2016 (UTC)


 * RFV passed per the above evidence of use. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 22:37, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Telefonlarım above means my phones, telefonlarız is telefonlarımız (mistyped) but you may find some citations by searching telefonladı, telefonladım, telefonladık etc. on Google Books. --2001:A98:C060:80:7D13:DC5E:20F6:73DF 14:28, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
