Roj Bash Kurdistan

Do you agree with this article? Why Kurds in Northern Kurdistan speak Turkish so much? One of my biggest friends from North-Kurdistan speaks Kurdish flawlessly.

And btw, and West-Kurdistan (Syria) Kurdish is forbidden. But there are still people who speak it. (Not all off course, there are also a lot who speak Arabic now:( .)

Once a Kurd said to me that oppression in North-Kurdistan is bigger. I don't agree with it. Recently a Kurdish soldier in the Syrian was killed in the army, because he didn't spoke Arabic well and was a Kurd.

What do you guys think?

I agree with Peter: http://www.kurdmedia.com/articles.asp?id=11885

ofcourse I agree ...

I know many Kurds in Iran who no longer speak Kurdish, and feel shame to say they are Kurd and they teach farsi to their children instead of kurdish . the population of Kurds is decreasing day by day...

when kurds stop calling themself and their land kurd and kurdistan .
it is end of kurdistan.

well the sitiation has improved during the latest years in Rojhelat (due to to raise of kurds power in South) and in recent years less Kurds feel shame of their being Kurd than before.

If PKK and their "baby", the Kurdish Freedom Falcons, continue making trouble, how can I get British organisations to give money for a school that could be destroyed as soon as it is built?

let be honest, Peter , how many bulidings have ever been destroyed by PKK ? and how many of them been Kurdish Language Schools ?

it is a stupid reason to NOT build a kurdish school .

He is saying that Kurds can loose vital support, if TAK and PKK pursues violent policies.

Coincidence. I just translated today a Nasr ed Dîn Hoja's tale showing that at a time, Turks could wish to learn Kurdish and said Kurdistan without problem

Good point Piling - there WAS in fact a time in history - when EVERYBODY admired and awed the Kurds - they wanted to marry Kurds, be Kurds and speak Kurdish! Because the Kurds were noble and royal... Because our culture was strong and influential...

We are loosing our specialities... Some Kurds don't even know what Sêzdek is... That is SAD...

Some don't even know what Êzidîs are and what Zerdesht taught...

Some don't know which land is Kurdish or who their forefathers were...

Some think that Kurds are a bunch of different people speaking different languages alltogether...

EDUCATION is what we need... And it is what will free our minds...

Bijî dibistana Kurdî!

About KUrdish language and education. I am currently learning Kurdish. Shall I put my remarks on the Kurdish language forum? Then we can help eachother with improving our Kurdish language.

well we have a special for language and one where we have to use Kurdish only.
