The classical Turkish poetry couplets, which have been formed out of the
accumulations of centuries framed by the precise principles of a certain art and
aesthetic perception and attributed as “a closed book” who are unfamiliar with
them, are embedded with lots of daily features. These features can be about
such attributes as conventions, belief, business life, some objects utilized in
daily life, sceneries of nature and conventions of tasawwuf and of any features
that may recur to mind. In the determination of the social life features in the
couplets, the dictionaries under hand may at times prove to be insufficient. It
is necessary to consult to sources other than dictionaries to understand some of
the terms particularly belonging to daily life or social life. Among these sources,
text annotations made within the frame of classical Turkish literature researches,
studies of text analyses are considerably significant since they also include the
meaning of concepts and terms in the couplets. Moreover, in the studies, which
have been recently prepared about the effect of classical Turkish poetry on social
life, concepts, terms and expression about social life are explained. In the study,
too, concepts and terms, which are in the sense of details from the scenery of
social life are tried to be explained in the context of couplets chosen from a wide
variety of collection. By way of the study, it is also aimed to demonstrate how
well classical Turkish poets observe their environments and to what degree they
are benefitting from their observations while expressing their feelings, thoughts
and imaginations and displaying their skills.
