blue mavi Kök (Basicly all the colours are the same as in old anatolian Turkish)
to go Crazy Delirmek Sasirmak
So basicly
H = X
A = E or more likely (Ä or ə)but never at the beginning of a word
D = T (D is almost never used in The ahiska Dialect ever word that stars with a D in Turkish starts with T in Ahiska Turkish, the only exception that comes to me is Demek
(to say) it’s the same)
ğ = g (sometimes ğ is used but seldom and never at the end of a sentence)
G = K
K = Sometimes X but seldom Q like in Azeri
ı = i (not as sharp as the i but sharper then ı)
The personal nouns are the same as in Turkish & Azeri (both are used)
But the grammar is slightly different than both (NT = not sure)

It's pointless to talk about the vocabulary differences, because it varies from region to region.
this is allos what caught my attention, the meskhetian or Ahiska Dialect is a Türkmen Dialect yet on the map the coloured areas are Kypchak dialects. The light green dot above Turkey is were the Ahiska turks used to live it's the same colour as Crimea
