Türkiye
English
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Unadapted borrowing from Turkish Türkiye. First adopted in 2020 by the Turkish Exporters Assembly and then by the Turkish government in December 2021 to replace the exonyms of Turkey in other languages. In English, the change has been attributed to confusion with the noun senses of the homonym turkey.[1] In June 2022, the United Nations accepted the country's request to change its official name there.[2]

Usage notes
[edit]- Prior to 2022, the term was rare outside of Turkish sources or official contexts, such as when referring to the country by its full official name (Republic of Türkiye). However, general use has sharply increased since its recognition by the United Nations in that year.
- Türkiye (with a diaeresis) is the dominant and officially prescribed form, but it is sometimes omitted, as in Turkiye.
- The officially prescribed all caps form is TÜRKİYE, with a dotted capital İ.
