Why don't you post a small greeting in Turkish Cypriot first so we can establish your identity before we hear your theories...

It’s good to always clear up who you are before moving on to the CyProb issues.

Who's going to verify his identity?

We understand and/or recognize plenty of the commonly used TC words Umit, but of course we always have the TC members like yourself too to verify…

Yeah, anyone could fake a few words. Don't you think it's a bit early to be patronizing this dude. Give him a chance!

My dad was born and raised in Nicosia’s Tartagalla area so he knew plenty of TC words and expressions. I remember him using… “brotsa” for a fork, “davli” for a table, “gandilla” for a glass, “ate ollan”, “yialla”, “odabok” (<- what is that?), “Oshgeldin shofageldin” (?), and many, many more…

Gandila is greek - turkish is kadeh or from Turkey Bardak
brotsa is greek - chatal
davli is greek - masa

Where did you get these from you say Tartagalla - you mean Tahtakala.
Goodness gracious me - you have slaughtered the language man!

Correction, brotsa is Italian word like apparos and gandilla i think.
As for "davli" is coming from Greek "tavla" as well as yialla (ancient Greek iallos)

[umit07]

I don't know most of the stuff you've pasted. Doesn't "brotsa" or "botsa" mean "cock" in GC dialect? In Greek I think it means "bottle".

Ate ollan= Hade olan
Yialla= Yalla ( arabic for "move on"), GC's and TC's use " hade hade"
Odabok sounds like "O da Bok" which means something like " that is shit"
Oshgeldin shoageldin= Hosgeldin Shifa getirdin= Welcome you have brought health ( or something like that)

My grandma alway's called a fork "Piron". I'm not sure what language it is.

Correction of myselve: yialla as quoted above means - go (fyge) and it seems to be an Arabic or Turkish word.

Generally the G/c dialog is almoast the same with dialogs in Rhodes and Kos Islands (is difficult for a foreigner to understand the differences between the local dialogs in the three Islands. This seem to be because of the similar occupators passed (Turks-Enetians-). This show exactly the same routes of local people who affected by same launguages and created the same dialog.These similarities are not famous in NEO CYPRIOTS minds!!!!

Yeah, "birouni" in Greek...

You know its funny how every time he’d chase after me (to beat the crap out of me of course ) he’d curse out in what sounded like Turkish Cypriot!
