Talking Turkish

Gobble, Gobble?

That's what my daughter said when I asked her if she knew any Turkish words- she cracks me up sometimes.  Anyway the real answer to my question would have been a big N-O !!  I'm not even sure if I've heard it spoken before, but here are a few words for your foreign language lesson this week.....

Hello- Merhaba    Good Morning- Gunaydin    Goodbye- Gule gule
Thank You- Tesekkur ederim    No - Hayir   Yes- Evet
Happy Birthday! - Dogum gunun kutlu olsun!
I Love You - Seni sevi yorum
 
1- bir   2- iki     3- uc    4- dort     5- bes
6 - altl   7- yedi    8- sekiz    9- dokuz    10- on
 
black- kara     white- beyaz     red- kirmizi     blue- mavi   
yellow- sari    orange- turuncu    green - yemyesil    purple- mor
pink- pembe
 
The Turkish word for delicious is "Leziz" and I apologize that I didn't make a recipe for you all this week but it's been so busy around here.  If you are interested in making some of the delicious Turkish food like we ate at Aspendos please check out these web pages- http://www.turkishcookbook.com/ ,   http://www.food.com/recipes/turkish, http://www.deliciousistanbul.com/blog/turkish-recipes/
 they all look pretty good!!

We are going to be out of town for a few days and so next week we will be taking a break from our "travels" and just enjoying ourselves. 

 Have a great week and we'll catch up where we left off!!
