minchickie ,

I heard that Hungarian and Turkish was similar to some extent. But I did not know that the resemblance between them was to that extent.

There are many slavic words in hungarian, no doubt.
may be, this words are slavics too.
For the dog exists regional words, like this: kuvasz.
In the literary magyar the word kuvasz means a kind of dog:

For the sheep there are a lot of words, with a little difference of meaning: birka which probably is a cheh word. In the begining the word birka was the name of a special kind of sheep(maybe from chehia). The other word is: juh. Its origin is unknown.

Intersting

 

 

There are strong historic links between Ukraine and Turkey, where Tatar Crimea served as link inbetween. Crimean Tatars speak nearly the same language as Turks and for centuries Khanate of Crimea had been an autonumous land within Ottoman empire. Great part of southern Ukraine had been part of Ottoman (Turkish) empire as well. Tatars and Turks ahd been always invading Ukrainian lands. Many of them settled and were absorbed among Ukrainian people. These interactions left a significant trace in Ukrainian vocabulary. Thus many Ukrainian words were borrowed from Turkish / Tatar (Turkic) languages. Ukrainian exclamation Hayda! (Go! Lets go!) derives from Turkish Hayda! / Haydi! (Go! Move!) (compare this term in other Turkic languages: Tatar hayde / to go, Bashkir eyde / to go and Kyrghyz ayda / to drive). While similar Russian exclamation Ayda! was borrowed from Volga Tatar. Ukrainian bohatyr (hero) also stems from Turkish bahadir (brave, hero). Ukrainian word hamanets' (wallet / purse) was also borrowed from Turkic (where for example in Crimean Tatar hemiyan or Chuvash haman means leather purse, bag. In Uzbek it is hamen, in Uyghur it is Hemiyan, in Kazakh / emiyan and in Turkmen ham stands for leather). It is interesting that many of these Turkic / Turkish based Ukrainian words are used with stress by Ukrainians to define their "Ukrainianess", patriotic and national feelings (example the central sqaure in Kyiv is called Maydan Nezalezhnosti - Independence Sqaure, where term "maydan" is Turkic in its origin (from Turkish meydan - square); or popular national Ukrainian term Berkut (golden eagle, also the name for special intervation security forces of Ukrainian police and Ukrainian cigarettes brand) which was borrowed from Turkic too (from Crimean Tatar / Cuman burkut - golden eagle ).

Gypo, an interesting word of Turkic origin in Arabic is "Basturma", the meat dish like salami-cured meat. In Arabic they say it in its original form, in Turkey they say "Pastirma" but it comes from "Bastirma" becauase it literally means "to squash/pressure" which is done to the meat. So Arabs say it in its original form.
 
Basturma--->Pastirma--->Pastrimi
