Does the name of this charming city mean something in general usage? I have a little phrase that I can't quite understand. Bursalı mısın kadifeli gelin çaydan mı geçtin.
I think kadifeli means velvet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Teşekkürler!

Thank you all! It has been fun reading all your explanations...I gather that the thing about the grasshopper is a sort of proverb. Again Teşekküur ederim!

çekirge bir sıçrar iki sıçrar üçüncüde yakalınir derler bizim buralarda hiç duydun mu?

Haven't you ever heard that among us....... (I'm lost).

Thanks. I was close, but "no cigar".

.....insanlarlar algılayabildikleri şeylere tepki verirler.

çok mersi!!!

Sayılmasam kaç olsam: If I can't be countable and be how much.

Can someone improve on the translation to English?
Teşekkür ederim.

Did I know you at that time?

Mersi!

Kusura bakmayın. I originally posted this in the wrong category.

First of all, Happy Cumhuriet Bayramı to everyone! Last night, at a party celebrating the same, the host had a video of new Turkish music. A Turkish lady there was unhappy about the "Turkish rap", to which I responded, "Turkish crap>". Then I attempted to put that into Turkish and offered "Türk boğu", which she corrected to "boku". Why not the "ğ"? I thought I was going to impress her with how correct I was.

Hope I don't offend anyone with my "gutter" language.
