You can find more samples:
şiir, şair, saat, suare, seans, kauçuk, kooperatif
The sources of these words are foreign languages.

BİR KELİMENİN TÜRKÇE
OLUP - OLMADIĞINI İNCELEME



"olup" ile "olmadığı" arasına çizgi konur mu hiç? Ben o iteyi hazırlayanın Türkçesinde şÃ¼phe ettim şimdi...

Hem de "m" ile, "c" ile, "r" ile başlayan bir tane bile Türkçe kelime yok mu yani?
