PEER BULLYING AMONG SYRIAN CHILDREN UNDER TEMPORARY PROTECTION: THE LANGUAGE ELEMENT

Journal Title: Ancient Land - Year 2024, Vol 6, Issue 7

Abstract

Abstract Migration has existed since ancient times and continues to this day. Since Turkey is a strategic and border country, it serves as a bridge to our country and other countries. Approximately more than one million of the Syrian refugee children under temporary protection who had to leave their home country and took refuge in our country are of school age. Starting school before learning the language of the country they immigrate to can cause various problems. It is seen that the language factor is one of the most common problems that cause peer bullying among Syrian refugee children. In this study, the language problems experienced by Syrian refugee students whose native language is Arabic during the language acquisition process were determined, the similarities and differences of the Arabic-Turkish language pair were emphasized, and opinions and solution suggestions regarding these problems were presented. For Syrian refugee students whose native language is Arabic, although there are similarities between both languages, differences in cultural and grammatical structure lead to various difficulties in learning. As a result of the research, it was determined that the main problems arising from the differences in languages stem from issues such as alphabet, pronunciation, sound and grammar rules, and various solution suggestions are offered.
