Turkish-English Loanword Cognates Word List

A frequency-based Turkish-English Loanword Cognates Word List (TELCWL) has been established to assist Turkish English learners’ improvement in English language learning and the corresponding pedagogical practice. A final list of 582 Turkish-English loan-based cognate word pairs was derived from the New General Service List (NGSL) and the Frequency Dictionary of Turkish (FDT). For pedagogical purposes, the TELCWL was divided into five sublists with different features of the cognates in spelling and pronunciation.

TELCWL has been created by Dr. Xiaoli Yu (https://xiaoliyu.owlstown.net/) and Veysel Altunel. Full article can be accessed by the following link.
