I'm a teenage american girl who does not want to learn the Turkish language(s) for I am taking Spanish right now. I do not want help on my Spanish for it would distrupt my schooling, but if anyone could please give me any info on Turkey such as the best sights, ruins, and especially history. Most preferably of Mursili II about his ruling and the wars that went on, like links or anything. I'm facinated about the history, the ruins. I'm more of a natural gal so I don't usually like busyy places, but they can be fun. I want to know of the Turkish people that live there and such. Please let me know and if you need help with english(you have to know enough to speak it at least a bit) I can help with that. Any other random thoughts you would like to put in, feel free! This post is for anything, but if you want me to input and understand please try to speak English. Lol. ok bye

I think everything you ask for is on this site somewhere, and more............ have a look at the essays for a start, then try searching which you will find in the TC link on the left. In the meantime, I hope you find what you are after.

I think it is strange that you took the time to write a forum message but would not take that same time to google them yourself.

What a wonderful idea! A thread were we can put our random thoughts at last and FEEL FREE! A thread for ANYTHING No limits! Erm......isn't most of the Off Topic for that EXACT purpose?
Anyway, apologies Gabbriy but it feels WRONG, so WRONG to post on a thread which allows me to do such a thing! It's far more fun to spoil others
PS I tryed to rite in inglish - ay hope it wos ok

I have googled much. I check out books, buy some when I can, I study all the time. But I can't find all I want to. It would be odd to go to a country/region not even knowing
what the people are like, what they do, what THEY enjoy.
I am curious! ^ ^
And everyone you speak english great. I know it's fun to ruin other posts, but I hope you enjoy anyways!
Pft everyone needs to be more...say...active?

There should not be an 'S' on the word anyway!!! Dictionaries have added it because so many people say it with an S but it is wrong, wrong, WRONG!
Just a pet peeve of mine and since we can discuss ANYTHING here....thought I'd comment on it.

I thought this "anyways" business started in English slang, from some TV programme we have here! Something like "neways" and "yous" just meaning you, and aks instead of ask.................... grumble grumble grumble!!!!

Well that's how I learned it. I'm a usa citizen! And I'm well in English, but just as in Spanish and in most languages there are some that use different wording for the same word, both correct. Like in Spanish, some pronounce the "v" as a "b" but could be used either way. ^ ^ I'm so proud of myself, lol.
Oh! Oh! and umm I found out hehe, I'm looking for info on the "Hittite Empire". For some reason I thought it said that Anatolia was then, but read it and discovered otherwise. I want to know of the Hittites.
Ooo, and something random. (like it's not on here ) but more random I mean. Ehem. Umm...oh... I just forgot what it was... I guess I'm too tired... *yawn* disabled and with lack of sleep! Awesome! lol, ok not so much to both but nyways... Night Night everyone

Indeed, I was wondering if being a US citizen automatically means one's English is well... (That's always an advantage for me, I can hide behind being a non-native speaker when I make mistakes.... )

Lucky you! Is becoming a US citizen cheaper than taking more language lessons? Where can I apply?

Being a U.S.A citizen does not mean that you speak English well. Honestly, few do. Even those who go to school don't speak it all that well a lot of the time. English, at least in the u.s.a is very difficult, mainly because with slang and everything, it changes yearly, sometimes monthly. From what I have seen, everyone here speaks english very well. You don't have to speak is perfect or even that great, just enough so people don't have to stumble over your words to find out what they mean. Like I said, so far everyone speaks English well, I can understand everyone clearly, pretty much. But sometimes we can't understand eachother either, lol. ANYWAY ummm yeah, continue
