This author tries to show that loanwords called “Turkisms in Slovak” neverthe­less call for more attention and research than one might initially think as well as that, indeed, there possibly exist a few words borrowed directly from Turkish into Slovak. These words may, at least sometimes, reflect an old colloquial pronunciation variant in the speech of Turkish soldiers and are, thus, a Slovak contribution to investigation into Turkish linguistic history.}, doi = {10.4467/20834624SL.20.015.12720}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/studia-linguistica-uic/article/slavic-languages-in-contact-4-turkic-in-slovak-a-short-note} }
