Quoting Uzun_Hava

Oops, Melek was quicker.  Her versions are probably a little better. I didn´t translate ´arayaþi´ correctly.  The website won´t let me correct my post right know.

 

I like your #3 much better than mine. I´m not sure about my #4 either. Hopefully somebody will enlighten us on what it´s supposed to be. {#lang_emotions_bigsmile}

Quoting Calikusu

Çok ince bir davranýþ: Osmanlý halkýnda, birinin parasý kaybolduðunda o parayý gören ilk kiþi etrafýna bir daire çizerdi.ikinci kiþi de bir daire,üçüncü,dördüncü,beþinci ve altýncý kiþilerde daire çizerdi.Bu süre içinde paraya dokunulmazdý.Yedinci kiþi ihtiyacý varsa parayý alýrdý yoksa ihtiyacý olan birine verirdi. 

 

 

A lot of sophistication: In the Ottoman people, when one´s money got lost, the first person around seeing the money used to draw a circle, second person also one circle, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th person used to draw circles.  Within that time the money was untouchable. If the 7th person had the need, he took the money, if not, the money was given to the the person who needed it.

 

Ok, I think this is the last of it, I sincerely hope somebody will correct it, as the whole thing with the circles doesn´t make sense to me, maybe I´m way off here.

Quoting Calikusu

-Dosdoðruyduk:Fransýz generallerden Comte de Bonneval ise, þu hükmü veriyor: "Haksýzlýk, murabahacýlýk, inhisarcýlýk ve hýrsýzlýk gibi suçlar, Türkler arasýnda meçhuldur. Öyle bir dürüstlük gösterirler ki, insan çok defa Türklerin doðruluklarýna hayran kalýr."  

 

 

- We were straight (honest, fair?): From the French general, Count de Bonneval, this statement is given: "Offenses such as injustice, usury, monopoly (?) and theft, are unknown among the Turks. They show such honesty that, a person many times admires the uprightness of the Turks.

Quoting Calikusu 


-Cihana örnektik:Türkiye Seyahatnâmesi´yle meþhur Du Loir´un 1650´lerdeki hükmü þöyle: Eðer evin bacasýnda leylekler yuva yapmýþsa, bilin ki o ev bir Türk evidir."  

 

 

- We were a model to the world: The statemend that is in the famous Du Loir´s 1650 Guidebook to Turkey says: If on your house´s chimney´s starks were to make a nest, it would be known that that house is a Turkish house.

 

As always, wait for corrections.

Quoting Calikusu

-Ýtibarlýydýk:Bir zamanlar Hollanda Ticaret Odasý´nýn toplantýlarýnda oylar eþit çýkýnca Osmanlýlarla alýþveriþi olan tüccarýn oyu iki sayýlýr, onun dediði olurdu.

 

 

- We were influential: At one time at the meetings of the Dutch Chamber of Commerce when equal vote came from the Ottoman businessmen, the vote of the merchant counted as two, what they said used to happen.

 

With this one I´m not sure if I translated correctly, I hope somebody will check and correct it if needed.

Quoting Calikusu

-Hayýrseverdik:Comte de Marsigli´yi tekrar dinleyelim: "Yazýn Istanbul´dan Sofya´ya giderken daðlardan anayol üzerine inmiþ köylülerin yolculara bedava ayran daðýttýklarýna þahit oldum."  

 

 

 

- We were charitable: Let´s listen to the Count of Marsigli again: "In the summer, while going from Itansbul to Sofya, I witnessed on the main road from the mountains your villagers handing out free ayran to tranvelers."

 

As always, wait for corrections.
