Bill, my Turkish isn't great but I do know some very useful travel phrases that will help you win lots of friends on the other side.
1. When offered a handshake, say this:
Götüne elini sok
2. When your waitress brings you your order say:
Simdi de sikimi yala!
3. When introduced to a Turkish gentleman it is customary to say:
Anani siktim
4. When introduced to a Turkish lady, it is customary to say:
Sik emmeyi severmisin?
5. When asked for your passport at the border say:
Sok gotiena
6. If you are unfortunate enough to be threatened with violence, try this phrase to calm the situation:
Sicharim agazina!
7. As a last resort try this:
Ananin amina cam dikerim, golgesinde seni sikerim trans!
If you need the translations I will be more than happy to provide them if our Turkish friends don't feel inclined. |

Are you trying to get bill murdered? |
Merhaba Iceman -
Tessekkur ederim for the nicer phrases. |

The way a language sounds and looks when written, can affect the nature of the speakers.
In my opinion, irrespective of the Cyprus problem, I find the Turkish language particularly unattractive to listen to; and I do not like those hooks on some letters.
Language on the whole remains a beautiful thing ....  |
Our dear O. I fear I must share a sneaking suspicion that some of the suggested phrases above ain't that "beautiful".

Language stirs emotions. It can soothe or fire-up ... as such it is a beautiful thing ..... it's my ding-a-ling!  |

A full traslation of your writings is on the way to ADMIN.
Grow up Magnus. |

You are right Bill Cobbett, Magnus' expressions are beyong contempt. He has surely hit rock bottom. |

Mrs c is determined to travel to the Occupied North again this summer and She who must be obeyed must be obeyed. So I thought I'd learn a few words of Tr. to try out on our northern brothers. Can any kind member translate the following please - In the Cypriot dialect of Turkish (if there is such a thing)
Hello
Goodbye
Thank You
A beer please
Two beers please
Re - bring more beers
A Turkish coffee please ( sweet )
Where is the toilet ?
----
The rest is to be taken with a pinch of humour please : -
Turkish Army out of Cyprus !
Have you lived in my father's house for long ?
Who did you steal this house from ?
Have you got kochans ? |
Bill you're going about this language-learning thing completely the wrong way.  Every schoolboy knows that the first words you need to learn are the following:
Sh-t
B-m
Pr-ck
T-ts
F-ck
C-nt
W-nk-r
Fill in the vowels as you see fit. Once you know these words in a new language the rest is easy - gets your ear in, you see.............. |

Perhaps you've filled in the vowel blanks inappropriately Deniz, wash your mouth out with soap if that is the case.......... |

Perhaps I was wrong about you. I imagined you being of a mature age, and being a good example to the yougsters. |

Perhaps in his personal life, Talisker has been under a bad influence.
