Sağ ol (Sağol), Sağ olun, Sağ olunuz
This form is used a lot to thank some one for some extra service or for something that has put them out. It is far more stronger than - Teşekkür ederim - Thank you.

If for instance you ask a stranger for the time you could answer - Sağol - Stay healthy! - As a thank you for his trouble.

Pan-Turanian activists have developed a fascinating mythology with respect to the origins of the Turks. This is the legend of a certain “Boz Kurt” (Grey Wolf) who roared out to the ancestors of the Turks and the Huns to migrate west from their homelands in Siberia and Central Asia. The Grey Wolf then allegedly pointed the way west and south: presumably against Persia, Anatolia, the Caucasus, the Near East, Russia, Ukraine, the Balkans, Greece and Western Europe.

It must be made clear once again that the majority of the people of Turkey do not support pan-Turanianism. Pan-Turanianism represents a minority opinion at best. The majority of Turks are disinterested in chauvinistic violence and expansionism.

Pan-Turanianism is a racialist movement that not only threatens Iran, but Greece, Armenia, Russia, Ukraine and even (to a more limited extent) China. If unchecked, Pan-Turanianism may become as dangerous to international peace and stability as Islamic fundamentalism has became today.

What do you say when Turks want your attention by saying WHERE ARE YOU FROM? Should one ignore them or not? Best way is to continue walking.
