ABSTRACT

Population displacements have occurred in tremendous amounts in the last few decades due to the collapse in civil order of the neighbouring countries of Turkey. This situation not only created a need for researchers to deal with the social, psychological and economical aspects of this forced mobility, but also with the acculturation process of the refugees who left their home owing to serious human rights violations. Because they do not occupy a great space in the policy agendas, they are an ‘invisible’ group. This poses a major problem that there are no specific theories regarding the second language acquisition process of refugees, because they are considered together with all immigrants although their experiences distinguish them from other groups. Thus, feeling the need to be the voice of this unvoiced group with their SLA experiences and witnessing the swiftly changing dynamics in the world, the Middle East in particular, and its impact on the sociocultural context, this paper concentrates on the perceptions of Syrian refugees about the L2 (Turkish) and the target language group (Turkish people).

摘要

在过去的几十年中，由于土耳其邻国的民事秩序崩溃，导致大量的人口流离失所。这种情况不仅使研究人员需要处理这种被迫流动的社会，心理和经济方面，而且还需要处理由于严重侵犯人权行为而离开家园的难民的适应过程。由于它们在政策议程中所占的空间不大，因此它们是“看不见的”群体。这带来了一个主要问题，即关于难民的第二语言习得过程没有具体的理论，因为尽管他们的经历将他们与其他群体区分开来，但他们与所有移民一起被考虑。从而，
