Abstract
This study examines Judeo-Spanish in the light of language death/shift/revival theories (Dorian, 1981; Dressler, 1988; Dressler & Wodak-Leodolter, 1977; Fishman, 1991; Gal, 1979). It focuses on the Turkish Jews living in Istanbul who form the largest Jewish community in Turkey. Judeo-Spanish came into close contact with Hebrew, French, Turkish and, recently, English. The analysis focuses on the dominant Eurocentric discourse each language carried and their influence on the present linguistic situation in the Turkish Jewish community.
