These "orniha" and "apparo" words are very familiar to me, they are great old words. Somehow a 'kotoboulo" doesn't taste half as sweet as an "orniha" . (Better not let VP know about the "apparo" word - if he doesn't know already )

Re Bill, ornithes are very funny too!

Stamps! Postage stamps! Boullia ..............Gori! ........or is that Thkia? (aunt)

Postage stamp = boullia = pul (Turkish= possibly Arabic/Persian) needs investigating. I like this re-unification!!

I have seen sunshine, second day running.

It's all your fault D, all this peace breaking out on CF. (it is pully = stamp, now I think about it)

May it last forever! Its only so, because most belligerent forumers are nursing Saturday night hangovers.

Seriously though, how can you say such a language is being practiced? What we speak is dialect of either Turkish or Greek.

y family connections are from, Vuda, Civisil, Kophinou, Ay. Theodoros and Lurucina. Take your pick.

Umit, I lived in a mixed village. I never learnt Greek consciously. I remember playing with some kids which entailed talking etc. That might be what we are talking about. Gibrislica obviously has a bit of this and a bit of that added to a Turksh or Greek foundation.

You are international D. My questions was who are belligerent forumers and I suspect its the Lurucadis that we are related to.

Pul = a very Turkish word btw. Denotes a small disc, coinage, stamp, button, fish scales etc. Not that anybody cars.

Like this. "Cypriot is a language that his being practiced":

No, what you speak may be a dialect and, to some, a poor, vulgar and low-status version of either 'mainland' Greek or Turkish.

What I speak is a powerfully evocative and expressive language called Cypriot.

The Turkish Language Institute dictionary says that this word is of Farsi origin.

All I'm saying that it's nonsense to class "Gibrislica" as a language.
