"Philosopher, metaphysician,
Rhymer, brawler, and musician,
Famed for his lunar expedition,
And the unnumbered duels he fought,--
And lover also,--by interposition!--
Here lies Hercule Savinien
De Cyrano de Bergerac,
Who was everything, yet was naught."

Deli kız.. that's what a Turkish woman called me when I was on my own in the bus from Istanbul to Izmir, without my parents knowing where i was..

I put the possesive-suffix for Kadir behind it

But now I'd like to change it tho.. I had an account with the name 'Lello' before.. Lello is a name Kadir gave me, and it's not common Turkish, but used in the east of Türkiye.. i think it's kinda Kurdish or a mixture or something I'd like to get that nick back.. But i made a new account when i lost the password of the Lello-one

In law, it is used with aprox the same meaning (of its own kind/genus or unique in its characteristics) to identify a legal classification that exists independently because of its uniqueness or due to specific creation of an entitlement or obligation.
In intellectual property there are rights which are known as being sui generis to owners.

mine is supposed to be: parisisbeautiful. However, there's a limit to the number of characters you can have in your nick. Thus mine became parisisbeautifu. It supposed to read Paris Is Beautiful. Paris as in the city, not Paris Hotel.

But then, if I had visited Turkey, my nick would have said: turkeyisbeautiful

but which has evolved to now mean in common usage a seductress or "a woman who is regarded as evil and scheming".

Kai means Ocean....This was once my real nick name in high school too, even the teachers used to call me it.
Maybe your wondering why Kai? because it's not nothing like my real name (Natasha,) basically....
It's because I was known as wanting to be as free as the ocean one day (which I still wish I can be) and everyone knows it too. Everyone knows I didn't/don't like being restricted to doing certain things or to a certain place....I wanted (still wants) to be free and follow my dreams and my life the way freedom takes me....just like my father

nice to know from u all...
as for mine...

Arabianofelix..

at chatroom, some people call me Arabian , and some Felix... or as some Turks assume, Arap. and they aint wrong... but if u look at my profile, it says who i am

Arabia Felix is the name of my birthplace and home country, Yemen
but now live in New York.

So i just sneaked an O inn there: so be it
Arabian-o-Felix....



oooh, forgot to tell u.

Yemen was named Arabia Felix by Romans as to mean "Blessed or Happy Arabia" since it was only green and rich part of Arabia at the time {until they discoevered oil in other parts... Romans jinxed us once again}
since then when Romans called it so, Yemen never saw happy-ness ... hopefully it'll change soon

Mine speaks for itself- I am Harika... or at least that's the name on my birth certificate . I always loved the fact that I didn't know anyone else in my country with my name, but I never really appreciated it until I somehow got added online conversation amongst a group of Turks, and my name kept popping up! I was convinced they were talking about me, and my frustration at not being able to understand them was what initially motivated me to start learning the language.
Now I am sooooooo glad I did & I can actually appreciate my name
