Can People Solve Questions About Turkye? l France, The US, Korea, India, Poland 

Asking do you speak Arabic in Türkiye is as ignorant as asking do you speak Spanish in Brazil, or asking do you speak Chinese in Korea. Except these aren't even related linguistically.

Turks never spoke Arabic. The official language is Turkish and it has no similarities with Arabic. It's like going to Korea and asking "Do you speak Chinese?"

The official language of Türkiye is Turkish. And yes, we do not speak Arabic because we are not Arabs. In addition, there are many minority languages ​​in our country, they can speak them to understand each other, but our official language is one.🇹🇷 Loves from Turkiye.💕

Turkiyede arapça'yı araplar konuşur tıpkı Kürtçeyi Kürtlerin, lazcayı Lazların konuştuğu gibi. Azınlıkların kendi etnik dilidir. Ancak Türkiye'nin resmi dili Türkçedir ve herkes sadece Türkçe ile anlaşabilir. Etnik diller aile arasında ya da kendi sosyal çevresi arasında iletişim için ancak yeterli olur

Greetings from Poland, my dear Turks. As a person from Poland I admire you. It was very nice to get to know more about you. Our flags have similar meanings !

Turks have never spoken Arabic at any time in history. Our language is Turkish. Since the Ottoman Empire is an Islamic state, it has adopted the Arabic alphabet, the language of the Qur'an. They wrote Turkish with Arabic alphabet. In addition, because we have been living in interaction under the auspices of the same state for centuries, words originating from Arabic are also used in Turkish. After the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, the alphabet changed and became the Latin alphabet. Personally, I would prefer to use our old göktürk alphabet preferably, but the Latin alphabet is a more universal option.

bu esmer abla ilk önce constantinopolie falan cart curt yunan saçması kelimeyi kullandı sonra arapça falan dedi sonra gezecek yer var mı ki diye aşağışamaya çalıştı ağzına vurasım geldi

As a Norwegian, I love Turkey very much. There are excellent holiday destinations, Istanbul is beautiful

Is it joke that she said Costantinople 😂 Dude like come onn There is even a song for that to explain it is İstanbul not costantinople

Türklerin arapça konuştuğunu düşündüğünü söyleyen kızı görünce başım koptu ve koreye uçtu.

Arapca konusuyor musunuz sorusunu duyunca beynim patladi bu soru kesinlikle kasitli abi

I am armenian but even I was insulted by question : "Do you speak arabic in Turkye?"🙄😣😓 BTW, it is great that you have included all other ethnicities in the Turkye.

It is truly tragicomic that an Indian from a British colony asks us if we know Arabic. Others there do not ask. An action to be expected from a complex nation.

italians speak italian. french people speak french. turks speak turkish. it's that simple. of course we don't speak arabic

ARINMA GECESINDE ILK SU HINTLIYI YOLLUYORUM ARKADASLAR. YOK KONSTANTIN YOK ARAPCA YOK BILMEMNE SAKAMISIN SEN BE

Olm bilerek mi "arapça konuşuyor musunuz?" diye soruyorlar. Türkler hiçbir zaman arapça konuşmadı biraz araştırma yapsın bari bu ne cahillik.

Türkiye does not speak Arabic!!! But unfortunately, some people still ask even though they know. Türkiye always speaks Turkish, only some Arab immigrants or minorities from foreign countries. Apart from that, Türkiye always speaks Turkish!!! (*´˘`*)♡ The video is very nice, thank you very much 💖

Yabancı insanların İstanbul dedikten sonra Konstantinopolis olarak eklemeklerini anlamıyorum yani neden..

Despite the crescent and the star are a widespread motif in Muslim-countries, it is not Islamic in origin. Unlike the cross in Christianity, crescent and stars hold no importance in Islam. But as crescent-and-star appeared on the flag of the Ottoman Empire, many sultanates of its contemporaries around the world who look up to the empire began to adopt the symbol as well. This was how the crescent and the star became a symbol of Islam by association. But of course the crescent and the star combo is not Islamic in origin nor it is exclusive to Islam. Even Singapore, which is not an Islamic country nor a Muslim-majority one, has the crescent and the star on their flag and emblem.

I wish this video was longer with more interesting facts and places to visit not only in Istanbul but in whole Turkey. Can we have the second part?

i hate how people from other nationalites think we are ''arabic''.

I really love this country's history, food, culture, language, courage, everything and of course its geographical structure Ahh Türkiye, you are a wonderful country.

WE ARE TURKD, NOT ARAB. HOW CAN WE SPEAK ARABIC? I CANNOT BELIEVE PEOPLE DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT TURKS, WHO RULED THREE CONTINENTS AT THE SAME TIME FOR 600 YEARS.

There is a moon and star motif on the coin of the Turkic Khaganate, a Turkish state that existed in the years 552-744 before the islamization of the Turks.

Hintli kızda benim basim egilmedi koptu, videoyu kapattim… ARAPÇA KONUŞUYOR MUSUNUZ NE DEMEK?Çok cahilce, evet bilmiyor olabilir ama bari sormayın.

İstanbul was Con*tantinople now it’s İstanbul not Con*tantinople, Been a long time…Listen to this song maybe you realize somethings.

Turkey has nothing to do with Arabs, we are just similar in religion. It's getting annoying that Arabs are mentioned in every topic where Turkey is mentioned.

Galata Tower was originally built by the Genoese when that part of İstanbul hosted a Genoese Colony named Pera in the Byzantine Period. The district name Beyoğlu is derived and adapted into Turkish from the title Bailo/Balyoz because the Venetian Bailo/Ambassador resided on the grounds of Pera. Beyoğlu is also referred to as Pera due to the expansion of the Genoese Colony in time; however,after the fall of Constantinople, the Genoese gave up on the colony but went on with their trades as before. There are remains of Genoese walls in the Galata area. The original tower was built in Romanesque style but had to be restored several times to repair the damages mostly due to fires.

Türkye cumhuriyeti türk lerindir ❤🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

You could ask what place in Turkey 🇹🇷 is the same name as a superhero ? The answer is Batman 😊😂

It's very funny that your friend from India gave another name to Istanbul. I think they forgot that they spent years as a British colony. We were always free . 😅

Galata district was a Genoese colony in the 13rd century. The watch tower was built by the Genoese. Thats why it is medieval italian style.

De toutes façons la Turquie est un Pays a visiter ! Jamais fait mais j'espère le faire dans les prochaines années.

About ten years ago, 🇫🇮 I posted some photos on Facebook. A few days or weeks later, a 🇹🇷 Turkish friend of my 🇫🇮 friend liked many of my photos. I was a little bit surprised, because I didn't know that person. My friend told me that the Turks are very curious. 😃 That friend (he studied the basics of Turkish at the uni) of mine organized a trip to Istanbul for the other fellow students of Spanish, but I lived in 🇪🇸 Spain then, so I missed that chance. 🙃 As a flightsimmer, I could have named some other Turkish places & airports, e.g. İzmir, Alanya (my mind draws a blank though). 😉

10 minutes it is not enough to talk about Turkiye. We have so many beautiful things. Thanks for the video

2:07 that was the Battle of Kosovo in 1448, which ended in a victory for the Ottoman Empire. It's said that when one of the Ottoman commanders was looking about the war-torn field, they saw a reflection of a really bright star (but which was the Venus) and crescent in a pool of blood. A flag literally made out of the blood of the Turks.

Calling a Turk and Arab is like the worst insult ever in Turkiye :D

we dont speak ar*bic

Türkçe alt yazı ekleyebilir misiniz. Videonun devamını bekliyoruz 😇

I loved this video! You can tell that the turkish lady loves her country! Maybe they could have mentioned Cappadocia one of the most beautiful place on earth, definitely in my bucket list. I would love to see a video about turkish cuisine though. By the way the indian lady has a beautiful aura around her and she seems so smart and kind

Her fluency is amazing

Thank you for having me. It was such a knowledgeable experience for me especially because i find the language Turkish really beautiful. Teşekkürler Aleyna and Awesome World ♥️🥰 Just to clarify a few things about people calling me a hater or what not in the comment, 1) I just knew that during the Roman Empire Istanbul was called Constantinople. It was however renamed in the early 1900s. I mentioned it simply as something I was aware of to answer the question they asked related to what do you know about Turkey/ Istanbul? 2) I am aware that the national language is Turkish. I am also aware that Modern Day Turkish is influenced by Ottoman Turkish which took in Arabic influences. India has many languages and even multiple countries in Asia speak multiple languages even though they do have their official language. I was just curious if Turkey had Arabic speakers too because I truly didn’t know and was genuinely curious. I apologize if it has caused a hate train, or come off as ignorant. I didn’t do it on purpose and I hope y’all understand that it was my first time learning more about Turkey. Yes I do know about politics but only present day politics because of the area I specialize in. I don’t know everything so it would be nice if y’all could be kind in the comments.

Asking a Turk "Do you speak Arabic" Is samr as Asking a Korean, That "Do you speak Japanese"

Istanbul is not our only city on the European side. Edirne, Tekirdağ and Kırklareli cities are also located on the European continent.

Canım Aleyna’m yine çok güzel bir şekilde tanıtmışsın♥️♥️

I hope this video reaches everyone who associates Türkiye with the wrong concepts and misunderstands Türkiye. We are Turks, our mother tongue is Turkish, our flag is shaped by the blood of our soldiers and the reflection of the sky as described in the video and Türkiye is a secular country. Greetings from Türkiye :) 🇹🇷❤️🤍

Saying to a Turk, "Hey, do you speak Arabic in Turkey?" is literally rude. Just as it's unpleasant to say to a Korean, "Hey, do you speak Chinese or Japanese?" or to an Irishman, "Hey, you're British, aren't you?" is a very unpleasant gesture, that's what it means to us. Let's say this question was asked, and the team that edited and edited this section found this question quite normal and did not cut it. I couldn't rationally understand, or rather I didn't want to make sense, why you were doing such a thing instead of bringing people from different cultures and geographies together and having a very decent and useful cultural exchange.

The star and crescent is not an islamic symbol, while it was also used before by many, the current meaning is just ottoman influence, and doesn't symbolise anything specific unlike the cross. Some muslim groups tried to use it as a symbol though (like the Pakistani flag), but it's symbolised because of who's flag used it, not vice versa (relation of association)

"Interesting vid, learned a lot about Turkye! 🌍👏"

Gerçekten bu kanala bayılıyorummmmmm

Turkey is not a country that can be described in 1 or 2 words. It is a country where many civilizations, cultures and people live and still continue. My advice to foreign friends is that you should not come for a trip without doing a good research on Turkey. It is a country with 81 cities

Tr 🇹🇷 Türkiye'yi ve Türkleri, Sömürgeci Avrupa ülkelerine ve dünyanın geri kalanına çok iyi şekilde tanıttığın için çok teşekkür ederim Elina! Türk halkı sana minnettar 🇹🇷♥️ En🇺🇲 Thank you very much, Elina, for introducing Turkey and the Turks to the Colonial European countries and the rest of the world! Turkish people are grateful to you 🇹🇷♥️ De🇩🇪 Vielen Dank, Elina, dass Sie die Türkei und die Türken den europäischen Kolonialländern und dem Rest der Welt vorgestellt haben! Die Türken sind Ihnen dankbar 🇹🇷♥️

Hala Arapça konuştuğumuzu zannetmelerinden bıktım artık 🙄

The Galata Tower built by the Genoese, a point of reference when I visited Istanbul

İt’s Turkiye not Turkye please edit it, thank you

It's disgusting when people say we speak Arabic

Not yukta and that guy endup being cute till the last lmao😂

Gerçekten bu kanalın ülke genişliği ne bayılıyorum

Neden Türkçe altyazı yok.

Olum la bu kız Türklerin arapca konuştuğunu düşündüğü kızsen kimsin la hayırdır ...:HePiMiZ aYnIyIz IrKçIlıK yApMayınn✨✨

actually video is good to understand people's mind . i like it .

Korean guy would definitely get extra hospitality in here :)

turkey is such an underrated country (it's not really underrated, it still deserves more attention in my opinion)

It is 2024 learn its TRUE NAME, Istanbul.

There were many things to be said about Galata tower, which the Turkish lady failed to explain. Galata is a place in Genoa too. Galata tower was built by Genoa merchants based in Konstantinopolis, to watch the sea to see if their merchandise is coming, and rush to the port to receive it before the competition. During the siege of Konstantinopolis by the Ottomans, the Genoans were neutral while the Venetians were fighting on the Konstantinopolis side. So after the conquest, the Venetians got the boot, but the Genoans stayed and continued business as usual. Their tower built to follow arriving ships lives today as a tourist attraction, and a restaurant.

I love how even caption is mistook the name of the country 💀

Turkey is the most beautiful country ive ever seen best historical places best scenery best food best culture and best infrastructure.my fav country ❤❤ i love Turkish drama also ❤❤

It's so frustrating that people are so ignorant about Türkiye.

Thank you for this Video

Galata Kulesi'ni restoran gibi anlatması müthiş olmuş gerçekten, işte aradığım sığlık

🌍 Interesting to see how much the world knows about Turkye! 🇹🇷

During the Ottoman Empire, Turkish language was actually written in the Arabic script. But came Ataturk who "modernized" Turkey and changed the writing system to Roman letters.

For the second question Istanbul isn't the only city which has lands in Europe and Asia, The other city is Canakkale.

Fun fact about Galata Tower: That part of İstanbul and the tower gets it's name from Celtic people. Galata, Galego, Galician, Galaecian etc. these words are all to define a certain Celtic people. Which is quite interesting to imagine that place has a connection to Galicians living in the North West of Spain and all other people from Celtic descent.

The year is 2024. Do Turks still speak Arabic? Does it use the Arabic alphabet? Is it an Islamic country? I think questions like these are asked stupidly and on purpose. I think the Indian girl has a problem with the Turks? I know Constantinople 600 years ago, but I don't know that the Turks spoke the Latin alphabet and Turkish. I never explain anything to such people anymore, because it seems ridiculous to me to remain so ignorant at this time.

I love turkey a lot from 🇵🇰 💕🇹🇷

At least you could say that the Galata Tower was a watchtower from the 1200s during the Byzantine period and is now a museum.

Çanakkale also is a city that have borders Asia and Europe :) 3:00

As a Turk, I would like to give you different information. Turkey is a Eurasian country. It is connected to both Europe and Asia. We are from the world, you cannot limit us to a continent. It is surrounded by seas on 3 sides. We have many beaches. It is one of the 3 countries in the world that has not been colonized. This is one of the reasons why our English is bad. Others The reason is the state's national feeling and the feeling of putting our own language at the forefront. Another reason is that we do not want it. We are a secular country. Whoever wants to wears a miniskirt, whoever wants to wear a hijab. Religion depends on people's preferences, not the state. Alcohol is sold freely everywhere. Even though it says "Muslim" on the ID card, it doesn't sound very Muslim. We are open-minded. Of course, there are those of us who live their religion as Muslims. We have no relations with Arabs. Only the religion is the same. According to Asians, we are Europeans, and according to Europeans, we are Asians. Our red line is Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and our flag. Since there are many uncivilized Arab refugees in our country, the people we hate the most are They are Arabs.Our leader never reflects the ideas of the Turkish people.If we look at the world agenda;I love both Israel and Palestine.I don't support anyone in this war.What happens is happening to babies.. We always want the African people to develop.We don't know why😂I feel closer to Indian Hindus than to Indian Muslims. Ukraine and Russians are the same people in our eyes.Indonesians are so sweet. They look so innocent and baby-like. I want to love them like babies😁Azerbaijani ,Turkic people are our own brothers, our own nation. South Korea, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina are also our brothers. As a Turk, this is my perspective and the perspective of the place I live.And finally, as a Turkish girl who was a victim of the earthquake, we will not forget the countries that helped us during the earthquake. Turkish people never forget the good deeds done. Thank you.

Its Aleyna not Elina btw

Story of the moon and crescent is much more complicated than that. Though, the moon and crescent are used on the flag of Constantinople(nowadays Istanbul) on the Roman era. War story which is cool but I think it's just a story not a historical fact.

The story about the flag 🇹🇷 mentioned in the video is just a representative and a patriotic story (about battle of Kosovo in 1389) but the crescent and the five point star symbolize Islamic and Turciq backrounds. However, in Turkish flag the crescent doesn't have a religional meaning.

It is a good enough video, but you should have added more places and background information. For example, she could have said that Galata Tower was built by the Genoese, who set up colonies across the Mediterranean and Black Sea shores.

Türkiye bro Türkiye. Not turkye

Öncelikle güzel video olmuş tebrikler...Ama Bayrağımızın; şehitlerimizin kanı üzerinde ay ve yıldız yansıması sonrası oluşması anlatımı tamamen romantizm maalesef:)evet kulağa hoş geliyor ama Bayrağımızı yüceltmek için çok ekstra 'hikayelere'de ihtiyacımız yok...Tabii ki şehitlerimiz çok ama çok kıymetli hepsine minnettarız ve ebeden öyle olacaktir...İşin aslı ise Kırmızı zemin üzerine ay ve yıldız 1800'lerden bu yana Osmanlı Devlet armasinda kullanılıyordu zaten...Tek fark yanlış hatırlamıyorsam o yıldız bugünku halinde değildi 8 köşeliydi sanırım...Tekraren güzel olmuş video👏

We dont have exact answer, what the symbols actually mean. The symbols have vary explanation. Reflection of moon and star is a myth and its not possible. Turkish flag symbols, Red = Blood / Star(5-pointed) = Independence / Crescent = Pincer Movement aka Ancient Turkish Battlefield Movement. Note: "Crescent" symbol has a rich history and its use varies widely from country to country and during various time periods.

Hello!! It’s Aleyna here. I had fun talking about Türkiye and our culture. Everyone in the video was so respectful and eager to learn. ❤️🤍 see you on next videos;)

2ci qızın danışanda göz teması qurmayıb axmaq suallar vermesi esebleşdiricidir

2. soruyla ilgili benim naçizane düşüncem her gün feribota binmenin içindeki güzelliği kaldırdığı, bir dönem çok sık üst üste feribota binmem gerekirse artık o değişik güzelliği kalmamış gibi hissediyorum, mesela her gün okula gitmek için binmek gibi.

Türkiye is one of the most diverse countries in the world! She did a good job trying to tell more about our country. More details about touristic attractions could be overwhelming because then this video would probably over an hour long 😄 turkiye is definitely a Land which you have to come and see for yourself 💜

IRMAĞININ AKIŞINA ÖLÜRÜM TÜRKİYEM 🇹🇷🫀🫰🏼

They talked about istanbul not Türkiye - Türkiye sadece istanbul değildir

India loves Istanbul! So many Bollywood movies and shows have been shot there!

How many times do we have to say this to this channel? Why are there no Turkish subtitles in Turkish content? Can you explain why not?

Yukta if its of india🇮🇳 ...add Lakshadweep and (andaman and nicobar islands)🇮🇳..cz many people dont know about it...and north east🇮🇳 india also cz its underrated.... Funfact: india has islands, himalayas, desert..(also known as mini world)..india is not the way its shown

In the ottoman empire we wrote with arabic letters but it was still read as turkish or known as "Osmanlıca" I wish we would speak Osmanlıca again...

you forgot to introduce where everyone is from

the moon and the venus not star! 1 of the oldest flama from türks more than 3000 years old some use like star some use like planet but moon is always there..mogols cousins use similiar.. how many ETHNİC if u ask more than 8 9 because some chechens we have cherkes we have not only kurds..we speak no arabic even our religious hodjas half of them cannot speak arabic or doesnt know the litarature.. u could ask better questions to them but was nice :)

I love Turkyie

the crescent and star reflecting on spilt blood is only one version, how would you explain the same crescent and star on Turkic flags before islam?
