Is this song in Turkish? -
I don\'t know if it\'s Azeri or Turkish. The girl comes from Azerbaijan but she lives in Turkey. Please listen to it and tell me! Thanks :)


OsmanWednesday 14th of March 2007 01:29:04 AM
- Merhaba Ivan!

Right, she is from Azerbaijan. Many people know her in Turkey. The song is mainly in Turkish but she sings with an Azeri accent. It is clear. Besides, she also uses some Azeri words like \'menden\' but we say \'benden\'. ;)

Anyone from Turkey can understand her Turkish without problem.

OsmanWednesday 14th of March 2007 05:19:39 AM

- *back*

Resmimi çeke çeke

bura getirem beni
seni yeniden görmek hevesi {hevesi}
seni yitirem beni,
sevgi gözleri yüreğin lalesi {lalesi}
kalbimin resmini çek, gör bir orada neler var
senden menden
yüreğim seni arzular ahhh...

[nakarat] x 2
resmimi çeke çeke herden, gözlerini çeke çeke menden kalbim yanar
çeke çeke çeke çeke senden

resmimi çeke çeke herden, gözlerini çeke çeke menden kalbim yanar
çeke çeke çeke çeke senden

gören beğenir beni
seni bağlanır görüm lalesi {lalesi}
ah severem seni sense ömrümü deştin nefesi {nefesi}
sevginin öf yolu var
üstüme intizar
gel gel, gel gel
yüreğim seni arzular ahhh...

resmimi çeke çeke herden, gözlerini çeke çeke menden kalbim yanar
çeke çeke çeke çeke senden

resmimi çeke çeke herden, gözlerini çeke çeke menden kalbim yanar
çeke çeke çeke çeke senden

nakarat: the part she is repeating ;)

enjoy it! :)

- teşakkür edirem for those lyrics,Ilike the song even htough I dont understand everything.
but u know when first I came to USA i used to go to the school to learn english with a turkish girl,she told me that Azeri is only a dialect of turkish and everybody in turkey can understand Azeri,that\'s the same thing that one of my Azeri friend told me,But I was wondering if kyrgiz or the language of kyrgistan is a dialect of turkish too.
By the way can somebody tell me what IYE GEÇELER means,I knew it but I forgot.
bye and teşakkür edirem.
FaWzYWednesday 14th of March 2007 11:06:23 AM
- İyi Geceler means Good Night.

Azeri and Turkmen sound a lot like Turkish to me, and they even share lots of vocabulary, I was watching an Iraqi Turkmen TV channel and I had no idea it was in Turkmen till I saw that inverted \"e\" and then they put their slogan as Iraq\'s Turkmen Voice or something like that! :D
Too bad all I get is the stupid \"Digitürk\" promotional channel... :(

Hey Osman I have a question. In the videoclip I can see how they must stand up before the teacher comes to the class and the teacher says them for sit down. Do you do that in Turkey?

Turkic language is mainly divided into 6 branches, and those branches are again divided in themselves, hence forming the dialects.
Turkish,Turkmen and Azeri are from the same branch of Turkic language, called Oğuz. That\'s why they are very close to each other and can be understood by both sides. Kyrgiz is also a Turkic language but the difference is not very close. There are common words but especially pronounciations are different so not very easy to understand them.
Here is a brief info about Turkic languages:

You asked Osman but I reply this :)
In Turkish customs when an elderly person enters the room, the youngsters stand up to show their respect to that person. In schools it is the same, when teacher enters the class, students (especially up to the end of high school, which is 17 years of age) stand up to salute. At universities they don\'t stand up but at least move on their chairs as if attempting to stand up :) It is considered to be good manners in Turkish customs.

Thanks for the information Hati :)

- hmm I thought it was Azeri. maybe I decided too quick. but it\'s not only \"məndən\" that she says in Azeri. She says \"ürək\"
not \"yürek\" (heart) and I believe \"qəlb\" instead of \"kalp\" (heart) and \"gözəl\" instead of \"güzel\" (beautiful). Anyhow a good song regardless.
FaWzYThursday 15th of March 2007 01:54:45 AM
- lol Ivan, you just reminded me of this very famous piece of a poem that says

[size=4]\"قُم للمُعَلِّم و اعطِهِ التَبْجِيلَ، كادَ المُعَلِّم أن يَكُونَ رَسُولا\"[/size]

\"Rise for the teacher and give him the respects, the teacher is almost like a prophet\"
OsmanThursday 15th of March 2007 02:00:14 AM
- \'respect for teachers\' is very important here although they are one of those who get little salary..

*feels sad*

did i tell i was supposed to be a teacher when i graduated from university? :D
FaWzYThursday 15th of March 2007 03:37:56 AM
- lol Osman, don\'t worry about it, you\'ll find your way around. :D
farzinfFriday 16th of March 2007 03:09:33 AM
- on second thought this song IS mostly turkish. it was originally written in Azeri though.
