this communiqué again we preferred to present some examples from the effects of Turkish Cypriot Culture. For a few years, we have concentrated on our culture’s effect on other cultures in Cyprus. Bearing in mind that we have lived together for hundreds of years with other societies, we have seen fit to give examples of the cultural interaction between other cultures and Turkish Cypriot culture. Our communiqué mostly comprises the effects of Turkish Culture. We have found it convenient to present idioms rather than words. As it can be seen from the examples, in every Greek saying there is a Turkish word. For that reason, we have chosen our title as “Turkish Idioms in Greek Cypriot Language”. These idioms which have the clear evidence of the effect of Turkish Culture have been limited with only 71 examples due to shortage of time. We are happy to be able to contribute to our culture. Now with our best regards we would like to start presenting the examples.

[quattro]

good one.... not heard it b4 quattro.. translation?

Beş = Five

Tambur = tambourine

Dört = four

Okka = okkas

Literally, four okkas into five tambours.

(elek/def a large sieve-like apparatus used for measuring grain or portions of hay for farm animals. It would roughly hold an okka of grain. About 18" diam 3" deep. often used to separate the chaf from the grain too.(Tambourine like)

You can make sense out of this surely.

that is the most scientific explanation i have ever heard

It means 'I don't care'.

NO it means en ta eshis 400
It means your IQ is below average .

"oi gia sena re kouroupet"
