The Book of Dede Qorqud, a key work of Turkic oral literature,
provides valuable insights into the socio-cultural, linguistic, and psychological world
of the Oghuz Turks. The forms of address between men and women reflect gender roles, interpersonal relationships, and communication strategies. Women's speech
often conveys politeness and emotional appeal, while men's emphasizes authority and
social hierarchy. Linguistically, address terms reveal intimacy, respect, and power
dynamics through lexical choices and formal or informal expressions.
Psycholinguistically, women's nurturing and persuasive speech highlights their role
in maintaining harmony, while men's assertive forms reflect their expected authority.
Overall, these address strategies illustrate cultural expression, social regulation, and
gender dynamics in Oghuz society, showing how language shaped identities and
relationships within the framework of tradition and norms
