French loanwords started came to language in first half of 19th century, during the attempts of reforms by Sultans and with the influence of people who had French education. I would argue most french loanwords were adapted earlier than 1920's where Ataturk had an influence on Turkish language. Roughly ~4% of Turkish words are French loanwords.
