n as in nun
d as in dad

Some words
baba - father
anne - mother
nene - grandmother
dede - grandfather

Thats enough for tonight.


E rah Freddo, u have written nene in TC dialect but not written anne and baba in TC dialect! Pu nalet olsun yüzünge suratınga. :lol: :wink:

In TC dialect Ana and Buba.

Sorry Insan we are more educated in Lurucina. We all completed Primary school. I went to Lurucina Ilk Okulu, then Lurucina Orta Okulu, then Ambarena Lise and then finally Trahona Universite
Ana is Turkiyeli village talk.
Buba is TC but I grant you that.


Ana is same in both Anatolian and TC dialect... Anataolia is where we originate anyway...

Ps: sorry Freddo I forgot that u were in Cyprus long before we arrived. :wink:



re ama, bizim köyde ana demeyik olan. Biz 'gocagarı' derik.

Be Denizui, gocagari nenegdir annege ayanne demezsingiz siz olan.

In TC community, usually; African look alike females have this name. Dudu,in Turkis also means sister but not a sister that someone has a blood tie but an elderly lady.
