If you think it is a Turkish word which comes from Kurdish, then you accept it is used in Turkish --88.251.28.67 20:29, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

mirvari

Allegedly a Turkish word for pearl. Tagged but never listed. Has some citations which are claimed to be Turkish citations of this word in this sense, but in the past it's been noticed that (most but not all!) of the time, such citations are actually Azeri or Turkmen. - -sche (discuss) 23:14, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

@Curious, are the citations adequate? - -sche (discuss) 04:07, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Google Translate auto-detects the first citation as Azeri, which seems to be correct, because the format of it suggests it's a glossary entry, and the other term mentioned ("mirvarid", from "mirvari/mirvarid") as translating to Turkish inci is listed as Azeri in مروارید. Google Translate produces semi-intelligible translations of the other two citations whether I tell it they are Azeri or Turkish, so I can't be sure they are written in one language or the other. Those citations are also very similar. - -sche (discuss) 03:43, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

If the word is Azeri, how is it spelt? Pearl gives this spelling, as does Awde and Ismailov's Azerbaijani-English, English-Azerbaijani Dictionary and Phrasebook, while an online Azeri dictionary gives mirvarı. - -sche (discuss) 03:45, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

RFV-failed as Turkish; changed to Azeri. I note that tr.Wikt has the word as Azeri, not Turkish. - -sche (discuss) 08:15, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
