Merhaba

@󠀂 󠀂 Да, немного

Я тоже

There is a curious amount of muslim anime

@Byzas Actually Merhaba isn't of Turkish origin. There's no word for Hello in original Turkish langauge ,lol

how did they greet each other

well modern Turkish is the only thing I have had exposure to

Merhaba is Arabic ye

Assalam aleikum @ChuuniMagexdd

@ChuuniMage ahlan

Keefek habibi

so they just threw kebabs at each other

Enta sharmuta

:DDDD

tbh that seems superior to every other form of greeting

enta shwarma

Actually the (religious) Turks say "Selamun Aleyküm", a bit different than the original Arabic one

I like that better tbh

selamun aleyküm

sailor moon aleykum

aleyküm selam

the anime is with islam...

I like ıskender

XD

I have a friend from Turkey actually

I used to

She took us to a restaurant here in CA called Ephesus

I left the circle we were in though

She is from the European side of Constantinople

I knew a Brazilian that had the hots for s Turkish girl

Are Turkish people Hamites @Byzas

I'm not sure about them
they see east Asians as cousins though right? That could suggest they are related

Well

Turks are Altaic in origin

There has also been plenty of mixture throughout history at this point

But modern Turks are more Greek, especially in West anatolia

aye

You mean turkish from turkey or turkic?

Yes i was about to say that lmao.

Also by the time the Seljuk Turks arrived in Anatolia they had a lot of Iranian admixture

Yeah that's true , Turkish people were mixed to the Greeks mainly when they got to the Anatolia.
