Is there any specific reason you choose for sözlüm instead of niþanlým? They have two different meanings in traditional setting, but nowadays, are they interchangable in usage?

I think niþanlým could have been used too.  ´niþanlý olmak´ is a step more formal than ´sozlu olmak´.

But I am not sure if the same concepts exist in british culture. I mean you get sozlu/nisanli/evli (in  sequence) in Turkish culture. 

 I dont know. I just know that there is no such thing as ´sözlü´ in Dutch culture, and I avoid using it in Turkish because from the old days it implies the involvement of the parents (sözlü as in the promise between two families for their son and daughetr to get married), and in the new days I personally think it is useless to get sözlü before niþanlý Because in both cases you say that you love each other with the intention to get married, so in my opinion ´becoming sözlü´ is sort of getting a licence to f*ck. Sorry

 Sozlu = ´promised´ right?  As in ´she/he is prommised to me´.  In the ´old days´ in Britain they used to used to use the expression ´my intended´ to show a serious relationship but not as serious yet as an engagement.

Ha ha

But DK you were not supposed have it when you are ´sozlu´. 

Who told you that it is allowed when you are sozlu?

Sozlun? You have been misled it seems  

 Well, Im talking about modern Turkish society and I don´t know whether it is allowed or not, because that strongly depends on families in Turkey (I happen to know what ´my´ family thinks of it, hence I dont have any sözlü ), but I can say that Ive understood it as more acceptable once people became sözlü, but not sure whether it was more acceptable for their families, or for themselves!!

 Oh nice one. I didnt know about that!
