well..I am not sure if I this is the right forum to post this, but since this supposely has to do with turkish learners, I thought this was the proper place..not sure
A turkish friend sent me this message. Honestly, even with the translation, I am still not sure what is the real meaning and what this has to do with turkish learners? I think I have read it like 10 times and still dont get it

Does anyone know what this really means?

thanks in advance

"afyonkarahisarlilastiramadiklarimizdanmiydiniz?"

means that : 'aren't you one of those people whom we tried and could not succeeded in
making you to resemble the citizens of afyonkarahisar?""

I remember a thread for it. I will check it.
I think the similar word on that thread was
"Çekoslovakyalılaştırabildiklerimizdenmişsiniz" or something like it.

i think you need to break it down...

afyonkarahisar + -li + -las + -tir + -ama + -dik + -lar + -imiz + -dan + -mi + -y + -diniz

i hope i got that right...

If it is a question, it can't be a word. Question suffixes of -mı type are always written separated.

True: Gelir misiniz?
Wrong: Gelirmisiniz?
