This topic will help you to understand Turkish words, mostly
compound words. After that you can see how we see the world. Example, Conquest of İstanbul and Fall of Constantinople are same historical event but their mentality are very different. http://www.google.com.tr/imgres?hl=tr&client=firefox-a&hs=DLp&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:tr:official&biw=1280&bih=588&tbm=isch&tbnid=Xnh1USLQCfQBDM:&imgrefurl=http://www.evdemobilya.com/elektrik-tasarruflu-buzdolabi-markalari.html&docid=0DBkxtacGzN4WM&imgurl=http://www.evdemobilya.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/4-kapakl%2525C4%2525B1-buzdolab%2525C4%2525B1.jpg&w=1000&h=1198&ei=r-02UdzJC87EPI3RgWg&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:0,s:0,i:156&iact=rc&dur=1453&page=1&tbnh=175&tbnw=146&start=0&ndsp=13&tx=56&ty=82"> ice=buz, cabinet=dolap http://www.google.com.tr/imgres?q=gagal%C4%B1+memeli&um=1&hl=tr&client=firefox-a&sa=N&rls=org.mozilla:tr:official&biw=1280&bih=588&tbm=isch&tbnid=mOuf3p_85xh-0M:&imgrefurl=http://tanrivarmi.blogspot.com/2010/03/ornitorenkin-gen-haritas-ckarld.html&docid=4ggdaAlSk71kjM&imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/__qJ7k2lq3pA/S60a4o_GD4I/AAAAAAAAAC0/WGHuBoXa9EA/s1600/ooo3.jpg&w=468&h=318&ei=2-42Udm5HMiLOdzagNgD&zoom=1&ved=1t:3588,r:6,s:0,i:109&iact=rc&dur=2673&page=1&tbnh=175&tbnw=241&start=0&ndsp=10&tx=134&ty=73"> Gaga=Beak, Gagalı=Beaked, Meme=Mamilla, Memeli=Mammal Don't worry.

Please continue with lots more, Ollios. But can you also help those people like me to understand more by explaining the English pronunciations of the Turkish words. ------------- What a handsome figure of a dragon.

it is good to see that someone has read my topic  OK, I will try to explain much, but don't wait for anything about pronunciation. It is hard to explain them in English  Turkish pronunciation is easier than English. The video which is below, explains my comment well.Pronunciation of Turkish letters (English) but I have to warn you. The guy has strong Turkish accent [TUBE]bWC9GPtJdec[/TUBE] now time to fun  Turkish Alphabet song [TUBE]yLUEtiUA7Cs[/TUBE] and its practice in foreign Turkish Class [TUBE]homJdPOPEbM[/TUBE] ------------- Ellerin Kabe'si var, Benim Kabem İnsandır |

The ever Beautiful Arabic Script of the Turkish Language has gone since 1924 and being replaced by a multitude of more than 06 World languages , as such the present Turkish language is but " a spare part assembly " of World known Languages........

Arabic Script or Latin Script, what's the difference? In both case, orgin is none Turkic and Anatolian. However can't able to read many historical writing (not just books gravestones, writings on historical nice buildings) in your country is sad thing. According to hearsays, Ataturk was effected from Itamar Ben-Avi. Itamar's son is telling that. Itamar was supporter of Latin scripts in Israel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Hebrew - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_Hebrew ------------- Ellerin Kabe'si var, Benim Kabem İnsandır |

Brown = Kahverengi Kahve = Coffee Renk = Colour Coffee colour  I can't decide but it can be light salmon in english Light salmon = Yavruağzı Yavru = baby (for animals) - but I guess it means baby bird for this example Ağız = mouth Yavruağzı = the mouth of Baby bird   |
