I know you can say "Inecek Var" to stop a dolmuþ but I´m sure I´ve had people say another phrase? Musait or something like this?  Any help...thank you

Hi, click on the link below and look at response 14

travelling by dolmuþ

 Musait bir yerde inebilir miyim? (Can I get off at a convenient place?)

Musait bir yerde! (Somewhere suitable!)

Musait bir yerde indirir misiniz? (Will you let me get off somewhere convenient?)

Or you could just name the place where you want to get off:

´Yol ağzı lütfen´, ´Durakta lütfen´, ´Işıkları geçince´, ´Migros´ta lütfen´. etc.

"Kaptan, sağda inecek var" is funnier. 

 Not funny when you want to get off at the left

, then you are going to say "Kaptan, solda inecek var"

You may be obliged to get off by the window or driver door

 I thought that was regular procedure

If you are taking a dolmuş going to or coming from ODTÜ/METU, you can say Hocam

  yeah, thats the one the first thing that i realized when i began to study there...

say to him "dayı beni indirecenmi"

he should be a bit elder

 I like it! We say hoca to everyone, it gives me sort of a ´communist feeling of equality´.

 Thats just peculiar to ODTÜ unfortunately ...

Yep, this is the most appropriate way, especially when they hear it from a tourist girl, they will be shocked for sure, kitlenip kalırlar   

something funny is when i first came to Turkey and learning Turkish by people around me, I would hear some guys say ´Kaptan inecek var vs..´ so when i said it one time, the bus driver was so shocked to hear it from me a foreign girl that he had to turn and laugh! now i know, its not so common to hear that from girls i guess. but now at metu its really cool to say Hoca and to be called Hoca everywhere, at first I thought  ´i must look old or something´ but now I know its a tradition there.

 Same for me! I made the unforgiveable mistake that when I didnt speak Turkish yet, I noticed the driver didnt hear an old lady say she wanted to get off, so in my effort of being helpful I repeated what I thought was ´Inek var´

check below link for more examples if you know Turkish well...

 Your example is #50 in the link i gave ...

"Hocam" was originally a cordial form of address, used exclusively between ODTU members holding a Masters´Degree or above.

 I bet it was a German tourist. They seem to have a habit of pronouncing ´var´ as ´vaaa´.

 Who knows?

 Haha super

  just for the first time when you realize what it means..then you get use to hear "inek", "gidek" and many others..
