Almancı is a Turkish epithet used to refer to Turks in Germany.
History
The term "Almancı" is a diminutive of the word "Alman" which means "German" in Turkish. Although it was initially coined to refer to Turkish migrants who traveled to Germany as Gastarbeiter in the 1960s and 1970s, the term has since evolved to encompass a broader range of meanings and connotations. Later it became a term mostly applied to stereotypical Turks in Germany, who are viewed as enjoying life in Germany while treating their homeland as a vacation site, being extreme nationalists, radical Islamists, and Erdoğan supporters. The term is sometimes used pejoratively to imply materialism, cultural alienation, and a lack of authenticity among Turks in Germany.[1][2][3][4]
