Özet

Language is not a pile of words; it is a tool for sharing one's feelings, thoughts and imaginations. That being taken place of this sharing as expected depends on that the words, and their world established in people's mind, in other words, concepts are the same for receiver and transmitter or at least are close to each other. For the person who thinks, interprets and wants to communicate with social environment, the words are representatives. Object, understanding, event, situation, etc. that they represent are registered in the memory. Human passes the records which are named as concept to the interlocutor through the words. Interlocutor gives it a meaning within the framework of designs of the words in his own mind in the same way. Communication does not occur if designs of the words in the mind of receiver and transmitter used in a communication process are different. Conceptualisation of the words that represent social values differently by individuals makes it very difficult to ensure the unity of feeling and thought in the community because people who think that they use the same language actually use different languages. In other words, they loads different values to the words; they cannot understand each other by staying the influence of this values in perception, understanding and explaining. In particular, faith-based concepts create significant differences in terms of style of thinking and way of living between those who live the belief and those who are unfamiliar to this. Today in our country, the words that represent our values are used by conceptualizing in many different ways. Alevism and Bektashism are also the words that are conceptualized in different ways by individuals and groups in our society.
