Sorry askim
Yeah Turkish is a cool language to learn but why the hell do want to go to Beyoglu lolSorry askim
Funny story actually. I was at this ethnic supermarket place when I was about six, and there was a meat section (chicken, lamb, beef, pork), and they had the Arabic and Turkish translations of each meat.
PORK
DOMUZ
*Pig in Arabic*
Ever since then, I have remembered domuz.
I think I was destined to learn Turkish *tear jerking music*. I enjoy learning it from my friends.
A dream of mine is to go to Beyoglu.
Because I have (non Turkish) friends who went there, and said it was one of the most beautiful places they've ever been to (they regularly travel). So I sought the advice of Wikipedia, and I just knew it'd be a place I'd love. It's one of the many places I want to go to...
I totally agree that Beyoglu is beautiful, I was there last August, it just seemed strange that someone who is Arab would actually show interest. From my own experience, the Arabic people I have met really resent all things Turkish lol
Well, you've met some pretty dodgy Arabs. The Arabs I know adore Turks. Argh, I hate intolerance - people disliking others for their ethnicity, especially since it's something that is out of their will. I can't wait to go to Turkey. I was planning to go this year, after the HSC, but plans have changed, and I might be off to Germany, so def middle of next year (when it won't be cold). I can't wait to peruse every museum and building haha.I totally agree that Beyoglu is beautiful, I was there last August, it just seemed strange that someone who is Arab would actually show interest.

ps- it's simit
Please don't. Now I'll be craving sushi for the rest of the week.Sukoshi nihongo o hanasemasu. Go nen mai ni nihon o itakotto ga arimasu.
I speak some japanese.
Yeah but what can you do, some people just can't be changed. Just make sure you do go, well worth the time and money (especially Topkapi Palace). A warning about Istanbul, pickpockets are everywhere plus merchants will scam tourists pretty severely lol.Well, you've met some pretty dodgy Arabs. The Arabs I know adore Turks.

Woops, I pronounce it simet, so I wrote it that way. Lol whenever I buy pide, I always say pideh. I hate it when people say pide as is. And a lot of people think I'm Turkish, so I guess I'll fit in well there
You are quite welcome, it's just sad...and hilarious to see an unexpecting tourist robbed of their wallet, phone, and camera without even noticing for an hour lol
My wallet has been stolen three times before.
That sucks lol, I just made sure to scrape my hand over the pocket my wallet was in everytime I walked. Yeah It would be good to strap it to your body plus you will have no problems when Chuck Norris teaches you how to roundhouse kick someone square in the faceMy wallet has been stolen three times before.
I'd probs have to strap it around my body, and learn a few things off my mate chuck norris
I learnt Japanese in Year 1. Right now....I only remember counting from 1-10.
