摘要：Proverbs reflect a society’s customs, traditions, history, philosophy, and way of life. Therefore, proverbs, which occupy an important part in basic vocabulary, are among the essential elements that enrich vocabulary. In this study, the aim is to identify the archaic words in Turkish proverbs. The research was conducted using document analysis in accordance with the qualitative research approach. The research sample consists of the proverbs in the commonly used “Proverbs and Idioms Dictionary” by Ömer Asım Ersoy. The words which are used less frequently today or out of use in Aksoy’s dictionary were attempted to be identified by referring to Dîvânu Lugâti’t-Türk and Kutadgu Bilig indexes. In this research 41 words that displayed archaic features were identified.
