It means;

F***k off,oh s**t.

Sik=pe**s(in argo) or in this meaning to f**k

hassiktir can be used as an argo expression to a bad situation.

You can also use it to tell someone to go away mare er-insultingly

We also have mal but not malaka. Kerata is also used pezevank=pimp orospu=prostitiute(in a very bad lingo)

pezevank is used by Cypriots as pezevengis, and it means exactly what kerata means here in Hellas.
Yiannis may remember the old song

"ta rialia, rialia, rialia
ta selinia mona kai dipla,
ta monolira, pentolira kai pou'nta
o pezevengis pou ta'xei stin pouga"

What a shame for the singer!

What are you talking about, don't you people read anymore????

What is the shame in mentioning someone that has been betrayed by his wife in a song?????

I've already said it doesn't have the same meaning as in Turkish, the Cypriots have adopted some Turkish words but use them as synonyms to Hellinic ones, they don't use the original meaning.

I dont think we have malaka in Turkish. If you are talking about a different or midified word, I can be wrong...

Originally posted by ak�nc� Mal.I'm talking about mal.Changed though. Oguzoglu for example: "Lan mal herif!" See how it fits

Conguradilations. You are creative, but the word "mal" in Turkish morely referres to a person without improved understanding ability potential. So the words malaka and mal cant be the same word's versions, since midification at this level is not very possible...

I would like to but it takes time to learn another lingo.

If our mother had taken the time I would been speaking Greek and probably Spanish but I suppose she didn't see the point in teaching us Greek in an English speaking world. I had one Spanish teacher, an Anglo, who really taught us how to speak Spanish. I hope I have a Greek instructor that good. I wish we had more Greeks here. This area is far more beautiful than Chicago or Boston.
Other than my native language if I could speak two languages it would be; Greek and Spanish, German third!!!


Downtown Spokane at dusk!!

The word malaka,comes from the Hellenic word malakia,which means disease.So malaka is the person who is sick.That's the proper meaning of the word.

Why did you need to tease us? Akinci only thought the word can be a common word in both Turkish and Greek (he didnt even say that the word was derived from an original Turkish word) and I told him that the two words had nothing to do with each other. I didnt even claim that the word was a common word or originally was Turkish. So what's the problem?

Lighten up!!!!
Don't take everything so seriously, there is nothing wrong nor insulting in what I posted, stop being so overprotective and try to have some fun from time to time. Does it really have to be all about arguments all the time????
