first of all , did, im sos orry for ur leg. wish u to get well soon!

im so happy to see turkish girls here !!!

i myself heard one egytpian guy on tv singing sibelcanin "karagozlu cilgerem" but in arabic the name was different for sure, dont remember it all but the second word was something like "shulgharam" ya da ne ise. also i heard lot of my friends in egypt agree that arabian music is turkish (who would think that? lol) and i think if u are going to sing there ur going to be successfull cuz turkish music will sound for them exotic and familiar at same time.
egyptians like turkish music - all my turkish cds i had with me in egypt were gone to my egyptian friends.they were almost fighting for them (lol). 'most valueble" were sad love songs like "agla agla gozbebegim", "sari gelin" etc, also tarkan, ebru gundes ( unuturum was the most wanted ), sertap erener, and lots of others. as i am also a professional - they even made me sing in turkish for them. they liked it a lot. so i wish u good luck.

Topkapi Turkish Restaurant at Pyramisa Cairo, 60 El Giza St.

Attaturk: A dark horse contender. This Turkish restaurant, with branches just off Shehab Street in Mohandessin and off Al-Thawra Street in Heliopolis, serves consistently unique and interesting dishes with a real sense of style.

Certainly it is not like setting in a traditional Turkish restaurant overlooking the harbour of Fethiye, here you will be wined and dined with a mouthwatering selection of Turkish mezes (starters!) followed by Guvec (a traditional and delicious special Turkish stew), while you are entertained by a colorfull array of dances from all over Turkey with Turkish folklore dancers in traditional costumes.

Turkey is a muslim country but laic i mean that the arabic writing is forbit sinds years, that woman are free (exept old mentality like some villages fare away in Turkey, also we are very open mind, the woman doesnt close herself exept old woman i mean 60 years old ...
Also the califa is forbit for the mean and the dark black dresses as Iran or Afghanistan..
Also if we dont make ramadan is not a problem, we have to respect the religion, no pig..
In turkey you can wear the clothes that you want...short clothes i permetted...
We are veryyyyyyy open mind...
One part in turkey is European (istanbul) and the other is Asiatic...
then turkey is a modern muslim county...
The good exemple is for instante the kind of Jordania and his wife...
Most of people look like this..

I went in egypt many times and each time it was very difficult for me to go on the street with a dress...
Also all people ask me if im praying 5 times a day and if im a good muslim..
Policeman ask me my identidy card on the street...alot things like this..
Really i love egypt but im feel bad there coz alot of places was not open mind at all namely in the center of cairo (((((
If you speak about egyptian hospitality i will say that you are great !!!!!!!!
the best of the world...
otherwise we turkish and egyptian are similair...

Every year we revive new program with new works.

On Sunday 14 November 1999 11.00 am
S. Prokofiev: "A Summer Day"
L. Mozart: Toy Symphony
G. Bizet: "L’Arlesienne"
Conductor was: Amin Guven Yaslicam

Emin Guven Yaslicam started his musical career studying orchestral conducting and composition.
Later on he specialized in conducting. In 1983 he was chosen as the most successful conductor of the year.
He is the founder of several musical institutions and jury member in various competitions. He used to perform in many international music festival.

One of his main intentions is to introduce young musicians to the scene and to bring the works of Turkish composers to a broader international audience.

Last month, on 7 September, at main Hall Cairo Opera House, Main Hall finally opened its doors to the first concert of the new season, only this time the season opened not with Cairo Symphony but with the Opera Orchestra, under Nader Abbassi, in a gala concert organised in cooperation with the Turkish Embassy.

Turkish pianist Gulsin Onay's was playing there.

"Akdeniz" is one of my favorites. It is about where and how he falls in love. I like the music. It's quite slowish.

"Bi tanem" also is so nice, although I don't know the meanings to the lyrics and I dont understand turkish, but it's my favorite country and he is my favorite Turkish singer.

Sorry for interrupting the conversation , but can you tell me the difference between Turks from Turkey and the Turks from Azerbaijan ??

thanks ,

posted 30 October 2003 10:30 AM            

As a turkish girl I am proud to know that you choose turkey as your favourite country. It is really, so lovely country.

By the way "bitanem" means "my only one" which is a word used as darling. If you want any translation of turkish songs just let me know )Take care,

i would like to tell you that I traveled to turkey more than five times and I quiet understand the mentality of Turks , I have lots of friends there and some shop owners of “ Isteklal” street know me by name J , but recently I discovered this Ex soviet country which is called Azerbaijan and I was so surprised that people from this country are more or less like you and furthermore they are very loyal to the people of turkey they consider the two countries as brothers who were separated by politicians ….
I also discovered that many Turks from Istanbul are living in Baku (Azer. Capital) and vice versa , no visa is required in this respect !!
You would understand what I’m saying if you would se them cheering for the Turkish soccer team during the last world cup
Do you consider them the same or it is just loyalty from one side ?

So, as U see, I know a little, but will consider your offer as a teacher not a translator.
THANKS

Tesekkur ederim. Sen nasilsin?
Yes I agree with you. Knowing even a few local words in visiting a country makes a big difference. While I was in cairo this year and just after people learn that I am turkish, they start saying some turkish words as "merhaba,arkadas, hasan sas (means hello, friend and a name of a football player)" which makes me laugh so much...

If you really like to learn some about turkish, I love to help you in that. Who knows maybe I could learn some words in arabic(which I always believe it's so difficult)

Take care,

Let us start a language exchange topic.
Am ready

posted 06 November 2003 02:36 AM            

Thats great so is that means I could learn from you both arabic and greek?But could only help in turkish

Maybe we should start from the basic words and daily talk. You can send me email to fantachero@yahoo.com..

So excited...

well yes, there are a lot of differences but still we are close with turkish turks. most differences in culture are cuz of the soviet period in our history and a lot of relatedness with russia. we have the same education sistem with russia, lots of azeri people were studying there, there are tons of mixed marriages( my own mom is russian), most people speak russian etc. but! cultural traditions are muslim and very very close to turkish turks culture ( we are muslim but not so strict like egyptians though - we also are allowed to wear what we like just like turkish girls,but for sure pig meat and extramartial sex things are forbidden).we have alot in common about usual everyday things: the food is the same, the humour is the same, the intonations are the same,the way people look like are very close. the azerbaijani language has differences from turkish - for a simple example azeri people say "sevirEm" and turkish people say "seviYORUM" or we say "salam" and turkish turks say "selam"- its the different pronounsation, also in spoken language we use a lot russian words. azeri people love turkish people and yes, consider them brothers and sisters.we love turkish music and as i know turkish people love azeri music

as i am living in russia almost all life (was born here but lived in baku since 1995 till 1998 and visit my family there quit often) i am always happy to see or talk to turkish people no matter are they azeri turks or turkish turks i miss "milli" stuff so muuuuuuuuch! i have more then 800 turkish songs in my pc and its never enough and i still feel "the hunger".

there`s a funny thing connected to my ethnicity that happened to me in egypt: while i was there everybody were talking arabic to me - they thought i was egyptian,lol, and the best thing that i found out about egyptian people is that there is something in them that reminds me turkish people so much (sometimes i was understanding what people were talking about only from their intonations and mimicry even i dont speak arabic), everybody was very friendly and nice and when they heared that i am not egyptian but an azeri turk they began to be even more nice and friendly with me ( even since they always treat everybody just great, they treated us even better then other tourists from russia that were in same time in same place - all the stuff and managers were all around me and my little sister to make sure is everything ok and that nobody disturbs or bothers us: they treated us like their own family i swear )

so i mean i love egypt ))

everybody have a nice day
