Does anyone know why the very useful Turkish Language learning site called the Manisa site and which I had bookmarked as www.turkishlanguage.co.uk has gone to. It seems to have vanished. There wre links to this site from practically every other Turkish language site I have accessed.

yes i believe it has closed down for the present time.  The owner is hoping to start up again from another country... sorry there was a link about this topic but i cant find it maybe someone else can help

however the site is closed for the present time

 The TC link about this topic is here   

We have a family house in Manisa -city- in Türkiye.But I did not hear any site like "Manisa Web Site".

 It´s not a website about the city, but it was a site to learn turkish. Was made by an english  man who lived in Manisa and had to learn turkish. So he built the website to teach grammar.

I love Manisa Turkish and I hope it comes back soon.

Thank you, Natalia..

Yes, Manisa is a historic city, nice and rich city, near the Aegean Sea, Izmir.

it has big size agriculture and industry and economic potential.

Do you want to learn Turkish?

Anybody has any new about Manisa Turkish?

It´s still not available as far as I know.

I´ve been trying to find the same site, with no success. It seems to have ceased operation. However, if you go to www.archive.org and type in Manisa´s former url there, you can find archived versions of the site´s old content. There are some changes to the formatting, but most of the information is archived there

 Oh thanks very much for that info!  I´m lost without Manisa! Slight problem - I deleted the site from my favourites and can´t remember the url 

The most recent archived version of the homepage (as it was in Feb 2008) is here:

 Thanks Apmahd, I´d been wondering where this site had got to.  It´s always useful to read same information from different sites.  Relieves the monotony when revising

I am from Manisa, but I have not heard a site like Manisa Web SIte ?

Hey, çok tessekürler!!! I missed also the web site "manisa" and was wondering what happened to it. I have founded it in here thanks to Apmahd

Thanks for the link

inþaAllah this very good website will be available again very soon

I hope John,the creator of the site, knows how much we miss it!

 So you said before - but please believe us - it exists!!

Thank you very much!  This time I´ll save the pages.

 thank you very much Apmahd, I didnt know you could do that..... its great being able to look at the website again... your a star

John has retired and is now living in NZ.  One hopes he is still in good health and able to find a less expensive hosting service to enable this service to continue.  It was a very good and useful addition to this site.

hey, Manisa Turkish has vanished again!! i was using archived versions of the site´s content and now even archives r gone.. (

any ideas how can i find it??

Hi, I downloaded contents of Manisa Turkish website about 1 year ago (I think it was in July 2008). Maybe not all, but probably the major part of it. I´ve just uploaded it to RapidShare, here´s a link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/211791011/manisa.turkish.zip

Unfortunately, it´s about 24 MB (there are some pdfs and mp3s included) so you will have to wait for a while (I have also a shorter version about 8MB, if someone is interested I can upload it too).

When you download it all you need to do is to unpack it somewhere, get into "turkishlanguage.co.uk" folder and inside of it open "index.html" file. Sadly, I guess I didn´t download some style-related file, because website looks quite different (layout is bit messed up, most of colors are gone) but fortunately it´s still readable.

Hope it´s helpful. If someone has any problems with downloading it then send me a private message with your email, when I have a time I can send it by email.

Great, but I looked at the link and it looks like the files will disappear after 30 days unless you register with the site? Do you know anything about that?

I´ve registered as a free user at RapidShare, and it states there that files will be deleted 90 days after last download (so if nobody download it for 90 days then it will be removed). If you read there that it is 30 days then it looks bit strange, if I have more time today I will have a look at it to check how it is in fact.

BTW, I just noticed that archived version of Manisa Turkish is back online:

http://web.archive.org/web/20080202222619/www.turkishlanguage.co.uk/index.htm

but anyway I´ll keep version uploaded on RapidShare, so if anyone finds it useful then it´s still available.

My error, I looked again and saw it is in fact, 90 days, not 30. I downloaded it for a "just in case" event. Thanks for letting us know Manisa is back online.

That was very generous of you, thank you!

Thank you so much. I may repubish them in my website but I hope no one would call it "stealing content"

 In response to Mike Mc >  Here is the link for ´Manisa´ ... it has been archived and has not been updated since it was taken off.  I understand that ´manisa´ may be restored by the author, John Guise, in future !!??  He now lives in New Zealand.

Manisa Turkish is now back on line!!  It can apparently be accessed at www.turkishlanguage.co.uk in quote " a simplified (and quicker loading) form."

This is great news - unfortunately at the moment I am getting ´Webpage unavailable´   - hopefully this is just a glitch.

Working here! It´s really great that they have texts and jokes for more advanced learners too..

It is working fine from the UK too!  Not had too much time to look around but it looks rather good now

Working for me now too!     It was obviously just a glitch in the system.  So glad to have it back!

Really great news! Thank you lady_in_red for posting about it!

WHOOOO HOOOOOO! Cheers LIR (and greetings from Marmaris!)

 Show off!!! you lucky thing

What happened to www.turkishlanguage.cu.uk  ?   It`s just disappeared again! I can`t learn without their clear grammar explanations.  Does anyone know?

It´s still here - are you sure you typed in the right address?

It´s back now, but the web-site was unavailable for over a day.

Yes, I`ve got it now. But I got really scared when it had disappeard for a while.
