    All I know about Turkey is they have feathers and most people eat them at Thanks-giving.

    Why not visit here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkey

    I dont know about Turkey as a country but i know that turkish gangs in london are responsible for organising a large amount of the heroin that gets into the UK, maybe its down to the location of turkey, they slightly sit within the edge of europe dont they but more leaning into the east.

    They are trying to get into the EU too i think, but have a long wait, something to do with their history of human rights i believe.

    I'm a Turk and like all of u ; )

    what do u wanna learn friend?
    about people? touristy places? historical places?

    maybe its better to put some pics for u

    I live in Izmir

    this is a view frm Alsancak/Izmir
    we also call this place 'kordon"

    another view frm Alsancak(kordon)
    u can sit on the grasses, near the sea, take a beer, play a guitar, sing songs etc.

    [​IMG]


    a shopping center in Bornova/Izmir
    [​IMG]


    a historical villa in Bornova/Izmir
    [​IMG]


    what foreigners say for Turkey is;
    * beaches r wonderfull
    * Turkish kitchen is delicious
    * people r helpful, friendly, warmhearted etc.

    in my opinion;
    * most of the beaches r really wonderful, some of them r very crowded and dirty unfortunately
    * I like most of them
    * not for all of the people of course, but its true for most of the people especially who live in the west side of Turkey


    I hope, these data will be helpful for you...


    to be continued...

    lol

    I think, you tried to translate "My name is hammy" to Turkish
    and used a translator pragramme
    right?
    but, this is an incorrect translation
    it can be "Adım hammy" or "Benim adım hammy"

    even the best translator programmes can't translate most of the sentences frm Turkish to English or English to Turkish correctly :(
    this is because, in Turkish and in English, words are entirely in different order

    e.g.
    Tr: bir bardak daha kahve ister misin?
    let's try google translate: "more like a cup of coffee are you?" :D lol
    but it has to be: would you like one more cup of coffee?

    bir=one
    bardak=cup
    daha=more
    kahve=coffee
    ister(istemek)=like
    misin=would you

    even, the translator programmes can't translate a sentence that it translated a minute ago
    Eng: more like a cup of coffee are you? (it is google translate's own sentence)
    Tr: bir fincan kahve gibi deÄŸil mi?
    :D

    try google translate, u'll c what I mean...
