Learning Turkish
« on: October 14, 2005, 14:34:51 PM »
RE:-[^][^]Mahoney that advertises Turkish lessons. Just some background info.  he is actually an english teacher for Turkish college students. so is an ideal teacher for english people wishing to have a command of the Turkish language. As a side note ther are 2 letter I's in Turkish so although his advert looks like 'Y can teach you turkish' - its actually the printing that at fault not the teaching. book lessons with confidence.

So, what is a Dolmus?

And, if they are all called Minbuses, why are the regular stops called "Dolmus Duragi" and not "Minibus Duragi" ???

Or, is it just another case of TIT Syndrome?
