The most distinctive feature of the names of diseases in Van Küre's mouth is that they are generally expressed with an idiom pattern; As an example, today in the standard language, it is seen that the idioms of Van Küresin don't come with a throat as the equivalent of the compound verb to swell the tonsils, don't hold a head instead of coughing violently and from the lungs, don't hold it in the waist instead of being held at the waist, and to describe the wounds that occur in various ways on the hands and feet, it is seen that the idioms are used. Some of the names of the diseases in the aforementioned dialect are either from a single word [şıl (to be paralyzed), ?orılceyh (especially dementia that occurs with forgetfulness in the elderly)] or those that arise as a result of the sound change of the name of the disease used in the standard language (such as goiter-goiter).
