Heres something you may find interesting. :) The name of my country has nothing to do with the interesting and delicious bird ''turkey'', well let me explain. :) Name of my country has always been Turkiye, that is Turk-iye, it's been known as such since around the 1200's, spelled to phonetically resemble ''Turkiye'' in different languages, where the -iye suffix means ''land of/belonging to''.... ...just like the Latin suffix -ia in such countries as Latv-ia, Roman-ia, Eston-ia, Austr-ia, Austral-ia etc etc. Another example; decades ago Czechoslovakia Republic changed it's name to Czech Republic and a few years ago changed that to Czechia (that is Czech-ia). Anyways, most likely the Latin -ia suffix was derived from the Turkish version -iye, as Turkish is much much older. Because in old times people of different languages could only pronounce it as their languages allowed them, we got various differences in spelling like Turchia (in Italian), Turquie (in French) and Turkey (in English) all trying to resemble the pronounciation of ''Turk-ia'' thus Turkiye. Mind you this was way BEFORE the animal we currently know as 'turkey'' was found by the europeans when they explored the north americas, the bird was sent to europe from north americas in the year 1519, so upuntil that they there was no bird named 'turkey'.... ...they came across the bird and thought it was a specie of the fowl/chicken they had been buying from the country of Turkiye at the time, so they named the bird ''Turkey Fowl'' meaning ''Turkish Chicken''..... ....just like how a dog breed is known as German Shepherd (because it's from Germany), Rhodesian Ridgeback (because it's from Rhodesia), American Bulldog, British Terrier, Greek Harehound etc etc. In time you don't get to call the Greek Harehound as simply as ''Greek''; or you don't call the British Terrier as ''British''; or the German Shepherd as ''German'', but in time the Turkish Fowl started to be called just ''turkey'', and has been going on for hundreds of years. Now in 2023, this is causing confusion, especially when we have people across the world unable to point to their OWN country on the atlas, this ''confusion over the naming'' needed to be corrected. So my country decided to rectify this confusion that has been going on for so long and corrected the name in other languages to Türkiye, which it always was, we basically didn't change the name of our country, we changed the mistake made in the English language. : ) So, there's some tid bit information for you to have a great day, if you read upto this point you have a great night too, ohh just have a wonderfull life. : ) Best wishes. ;)
Interesting information! 😃 I always call the country “Türkiye” to not create confusion with the Turkey (animal) Thanks for watching and the information! More videos from Türkiye coming soon! 😃
Hi! Thanks for sharing yours video. It's very interesting channel. Do you have any issues with recording public transport there? I'll visit Istanbul shortly and looking for any law regulations and special/interesting places for train photography. Best regards, Woit
Thank you for watching! 😃 Regarding the recording of videos, i did not have any major issues. Though it’s best to avoid recording people’s faces. Enjoy your visit in Istanbul! 😃
@@AhmadFaroosLosSantos It Was October 9th, 2023: Windy, Cloudy and the Afternoon brought Rains. Temperature was around 15C. Istanbul’s Climate is indeed Colder than Many People would think it is, because of its northern Coastline at The Black Sea. For Sunshine and Warmth, Head to Izmir or Antalya 👌 😊
@@kanchanananayakkara8959 you are welcome! 😃 Unfortunately, Istanbul is not the number 1 destination to see YHT. On average there are around 1-3 YHT per Hour. I recommend you to go to Feneryolu station and see them pass there starting 9:40AM, or to take a YHT to Eskişehir (which is really the busiest YHT Hub in all of Türkiye, but is around 2.5 hours by YHT from Istanbul). But also a good station would be Bostancı, where there is lots of YHT (some even stop there) and Marmaray together 😃 👍🏽
