“Where are you from? Your Turkish sounds weird!” – Episode 6 with Çise Çavuşoğlu

In this episode, I am joined by Çise Çavuşoğlu to discuss the Turkish Cypriot language. We explore the impact language teaching has on how young people come to understand their Cypriot identity in the UK, why we need to increase the exposure to Cypriot language, and the beauty in valuing the diversity of language forms for the British Cypriot diaspora. Çise has undergone extensive research into the Turkish Cypriot community in London, by interacting with both students and staff in Turkish Schools.
