Merhaba lol yeah that's about the only word I already knew in Turkish.

- Nasilsin? (How are you?)

- Iyiyim( I am fine), sen nasilsin?( how are you?)

- Ben de iyiyim. ( I am fine too)

Me disrespectful. The cheek!

So if i now call you a stupid little boy that would not be disrepectful, you for a young man are quite smart at trying to wriggle out of things but never mind we will progress.

Till now you have many times posted very biased or belittling remarks like your "tc are not cypriots" etc. and many forum members rightly so see you in a different light, but if you now say you are open to learning then try listening and asking decent questions and very quickly you will learn more than you can imagine and gain some respect from other forum members.

So from here onwards lets start again and lets see where we go, 'aferim sana' (well done to you).

Not really if I'm honest. it;s funny and something you'd say to a young boy.

From what I hear and read on the net (from un-biased sources) I don't think Turkish-Cypriots are Cypriots, but more Turkish. When I made my thread about how Turkish-Cypriots are Cypriots I gradually understood more and made a more neutral thought, but please, please, please understand, that when I say that I believe Turkish-Cypriots are not Cypriots, I don't mean it in a racist way, it's just the way i think, and I would like you to respect that, as I respect your views that you are Cypriots. It's not biased or belittling for me to say that, it's a point of view, an opinion.

Oh man! So if everybody shared your point of view then greek-cyriots would be more greek!!! And please people in this forum, there may be more young members than you would ever imagine, count me in!

If these threads were simply aimed at those attempting to learn Greek or Turkish, there would be no issue. It would enable us all to discover each others languages. However, the point remains that the intention of these threads is subversive rather than contributory. I have therefore created two threads whereby those of us interested in learning Greek or Turkish phrases, useful words can interact. That's a real step towards unity, not the division that these two threads attempt to incite.

For such a long time now I' ve wanted to learn Turkish (the Cypriot 1 if that makes sense :S) and I knw a little but I need someone who can teach me the grammer. I knw lots of phrases but no rules such as word endings and tenses. Now my exams are over I' m especially keen to learn!
Anyone fancy offereing their services to me, or know anyone that might? I' d appreciate it greatly!
Please let me know!
