Idioms and proverbs are taken an important place in teaching of Turkish to foreigners from B1 level. Proverbs and idioms play a big role in the conceptual skill gain that require abstract thinking. Idioms are the most concrete indicator of a nation's thinking system, emotions and perspective on the world. The meanings attributed to idioms also show how societies make sense of the world. In the study firstly, animal perception in Bosnian and Turkish idioms was tried to be determined. Especially in the idioms where the animal name is mentioned, many similarities have been found. Some animals have similar characteristics, while others have opposite meanings. In Bosnian, horses, donkeys or bulls have negative meanings. Although the donkey has a negative meaning in Turkish, there is no negative meaning attributed to the horse. This shows the importance of horse in Turkish society. Animals such as rat, turkey, rooster, parrot, panther and snail are included in Bosnian idioms and not in Turkish idioms dictionary. In the study firstly, the dictionary of Bosnian idioms was searched, idioms with the name of animals were identified, and then these animal names were searched in the Turkish idioms dictionary. This study is thought to be useful in teaching Turkish to Bosnians. In this study which is a qualitative research, document analysis was used. The data used in the study were obtained from the Bosnian idioms dictionary which was prepared by Şakir Bayhan and Turkish idioms dictionary which was prepared by Ömer Asım Aksoy. |
