I like the fact that Turkish names actually mean something. It´s the same with traditional Polish/Slavic names, not really true for modern ones (or names coming from foreign languages).

 

According to the list posted, my real name means:

"I like to drink -  I like to drink again haha - I like to drink again haha - I like to drink"

 

Now that´s what I call destiny

 

And what´s the brand? lol lol

Vodka Żubrówka to be precise (not your Heineken pretending to be Polish lol)

 

I just realised if it hadn´t been for Trudy I might have failed to share the meaning of my name as I surely missed Teaschip´s post from 2007. How would the TC folk manage to live without that knowledge

You don´t use your throat pronuncing it. Check out what I recorded especially for you:

I secretly downloaded it too. All that I understood was the "....as in..." part

Awww, I should have given a warning - I recorded a really harsh combination of Polish words. hard to listen to without a headache that is

 

Trudy asked about the pronunciation of "źdźbło" so I provided it and decided to torture her a bit more. the translation goes "A blade" as in "a blade of grass rustling in the wind"

Well, I picture myself trying in vain to say the name of this unpronounceable booze in a Polish liquor shop. The shopkeeper doesn´t  quite like the slurry speech I produce as I hopelessly keep repeating zdzlbo, zdzlbo, no, no, zdzþbpr.  He kicks me out saying don´t come back for a drink before you sober up...

I think the name of the alcohol is "zubrowka", the writing "zdzblo inna" means "a tad bit different".
