Kafkasyali --- beyaz irk
Explanation:
Sozlukte Kafkasyali, Kafkas dili vs dese de, burada hem tip hem kriminoloj' vs bence beyaz irk olarak kullaniliyor.

Bu arada Senay goruyorum ki tip cevirisi yapiyorsun ve yuzlerce terimin Turk tip dilinde karsiligini sorma gereksinimi duyuyorsun. Asagida birkac adres verecegim, buradan yararlanabilirsin belki, daha cabuk sonuc alirsin:

tip ile ilgili sayfalar:

ayrica webcrawler, google vs gibi araclardan da yararlanabilirsin.

Umarim yardimci olur

Polis, doktorlar, kriminoloji uzerinde calisanlar suclu hasta vs tarif ederken CAUCASION, ASIAN, vs kullanirlar, beyaz, kadin, 25 yasinda boy vs vs seklinde.... Bu durumda Kafkasyali kullanmak biraz abes kaciyor.

And, it becomes a medical term if used by a doctor, describing a patient, police reports, criminology. It does refer to white male/female person.

OR at least can say Caucasion race, as Kafkasya irkindan... but I dont think so if this was a medical translation \"beyaz irk\" daha dogru geliyor bana...

IMO (in my opinion) of course

Kafkasyalilar


Explanation:
This is not a medical term.

Causasians means 'Kafkasyalilar' ('i' without the dot).

When I say \'it\'s not a medical term\', I meant that it is not the name of a disease, or of a medicine, or of a treatment, etc. Of course, the word can be used in a medical context, though, and I agree with the explanation given by Gaye and Opedos. My reference is not a good one.

"kafkas ırkından gelenler"


Explanation:
özellikle amerikan tıp literatüründe hastanın ırsi özelliklerini belirtmek gerekir(kozmopolit bir toplum olduklarından olsa gerek)Beyaz ve siyah ırk için genellikle white/ black kullanılır.Ayrıca "caucasians" kullanımı vardır ve bence endoğru çeviri "kafkas ırkından gelenler " şeklinde olmalıdır.İngiliz kökenli amerikalılara sırf beyaz oldukları için "caucasians" kullanmayız sanıyorum

neutral  Gaye Terzioglu-Booth: Sorun da bu... Caucasian kelimesini kullananlar Kafkasya'dan gelen irk diye birsey bilmeyebilirler bile. Benim onerim Amerika ve Avustralya'da yasayip bu ulkelerdeki kullanim seklini bilmemden kaynaklaniyor. Sozluk tanimi ya da cografi konumu degil :)

neutral  sevinc altincekic: bilimsel inanışa göre bütün beyaz ırk kafkasya'dan gelme olduğu için bilimsel terim olarak caucasian kullanılmaktadır, türkçe'de kafkasyalı bu ingilizce/bilimsel kullanımdan kaynaklanan bir zorlama yalnızca. ab^'deki black/white da ırkçılık kaynaklıdır

Explanation:
Burada genel bir anlam var.
ancak, Circassians olsaydı, özel olarak Çerkezler demek olacaktı. SELAM VE SEVGİLER.
