Could someone tell me if this is a Turkish word?
I apologize up front if this is vulgar in anyway...

Is Zeri a Turkish word? If so do you know what it means?

Thank you for your help!!!

Zer means Altın (Gold) , but Zeri isnt a Turkish word.

Maybe Zeri = Concerned with Gold

But we have no word like that

Quoting Umut_Umut:

Zer means Altın (Gold) , but Zeri isnt a Turkish word.

Maybe Zeri = Concerned with Gold

But we have no word like that



"zer" means "yellow" in kurdish..."zeri" means "blonde"... or "yellowish" as a color..
the second meanng of "zer" is gold..

My dictionary says ZERI is the sowing of seeds. I dont know if there is another more basic meaning.

Yes, its not a common word in Turkish but it is used to be a common word in I think. It's a Persian word originally.
