Natural language processing systems underperform on code-mixed text, particularly for low-resource language pairs. Turkish-English poses a further challenge: it lets English stems combine with Turkish suffixes to form single mixed-language tokens. We introduce TurEngMix, a corpus of 5.5K noisy, naturally occurring social media posts (486,974 tokens) rich in Turkish-English code-mixing. From this corpus, we construct a new Turkish-English benchmark for code-mixed language identification (LID) and named entity recognition (NER), comprising 15K expert-annotated tokens.
