Could be, but when I looked at buying an automobile, I went for white. The reason was for safety. A white car is more easily visible, whereas a black car is in the shadow range. I have a black cat who disappears in the shadows, I think a black car would do the same.

May their souls rest in peace

I can assure you, Turkish does not sound very much like Spanish. Listen to songs. I find that is a good way to get used to the sound of a language. Spanish is a more steccato language, whereas Turkish is harmonious.  In both languages the R is trilled, but not as much as in Spanish with the latters r and rr. There is no ll in Turkish. Most of all, it´s the rythm that is different.

There have been many Turkish songs translated here.

Here is one by Sertab Erener by the name Aşk   and here is a discussion  about the meaning of the song...

Here is Tarkan´s Verme  here is a page with a translation

As I´ve never been a great fan of American accent, I don´t sound very convincing, though. Still, it´s enough to baffle people who always try to guess where I am from. So far I have been thought to be from each English-speaking country short of RSA Well...maybe in 10 years I´ll finally pick Hiberno English. Keep your fingers crossed!

What is it about US English? There is a strange flat twang to it.  John Wayne is the archtype of US English.  Of course, there the Robert DeNiro (faugedahbtit) style as well...still not pretty.

There is a nasal quality to it and a lazy nature of reducing words to one syllable.  Of course, let´s not forget Southern American English. It has a few variations as well.  There is the Texas accent of Jim Hightower

It´s tragic that through the years up to now, much of it is barely intelligible.

My favorite English is that of the Cambridge area. It has a nice lilt to it.

Why not take a look at just who has been the provocatour each time...over and over and over again?  It is annoying, why he is allowed to get away with it...over and over and over again...many valuable members have gotten disgusted and left.

what was said...."the best laid plans of mice and men"........one still needs luck....some try and try and nothing...others bingo! ready or not

So you are saying the people who built Göbekli Tepe or Çatalöyük...ummm...what? You are aware of the many different cultures have had their way within the current borders of Turkey?

Hattians, Akadian, Achaens, Hittitite, Ionian, Lycian, Pyrygia ...and on and on...not to mention it is part of the Fertile Crescent. Which is to say....the people who reside in Turkey are an amalgam of all the people who were there before.

Humanity has been interbreeding and moving around for millenia....

From what I understand, who lives in Turkey, who has Turkish citizenship is a Turk. You seem to be against nationalism, but until humanity learns to share resources, it is what we have. If you are a citizen of a country, it´s your duty to do what you can to improve the lot of your fellow citizens.

If you don´t have national pride, in the end, you won´t have a nation.

A beautiful bride was murdered in a sensless display of barbarism. May she rest in peace and may the hearts of her loved ones and family find peace.

May her death cause shame and remorse to those who contribute to hate and chaos.

May Allah have mercy on her soul.
