I have been trying to understand the "Garfield" cartoon on the comic page and I think there is a spelling mistake in the first part.......
Can someone who speaks good Turkish please take a look and see if there is a spelling error or whether I am just not understanding properly. Thanks!

I didn't notice. Maybe I missed, but where do you think there's a mistake?

sarmısaklı - shouldn't it be sarımsaklı?

Not according to the dictionary......
It should be sarımsak
Note ım not mı
Or are they alternative spellings?

This time I checked in english dictionary and saw "sarmisak", can you check again, please.
Did you ever eat pizza with garlic?

This time both of you are correct 
Sarımsak and sarmısak are both correct like sahlep and salep.

"sarmısaklı" is used in some countryside, I think.

Bod do not be
We all made mistakes (remember?) and learn from them.
If we don't make them then will not learn.This is my opinion.
Take care

Hey - I am never shy 
And I am not afraid of making mistakes - and making them in front of people who know better than I.......whether that be Turkish speakers or anything else !!!
I am proud of how much Turkish I have learnt in the last 8 months - I would have loved to have learned more but considering I have not yet spoken with another Turkish speaker I think I am doing well. And that is because of two things: I am happy to ask questions and make mistakes and kind people are happy to answer my questions and correct my mistakes. That is what makes TC
