Kurbetcha (Gurbetcha) is a creole language with what appears to be predominantly Romani vocabulary and Cypriot Turkish structure spoken by the Kurbet (Roma) of Cyprus. The Kurbet have traditionally also spoken Turkish. The majority settled in the north following the Turkish invasion of Cyprus but many have migrated to the Republic in recent years. Kurbetcha has been very little studied.
