Image via WikipediaFirst, I want to say Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow American bloggers and readers. :)
Second, I have a confession to make:
I've been calling it Turkey, partly because that's what most people call it and partly because I'm lazy and I hate to open the character map every time I need a weird letter. (Many words in my posts are probably incorrect due to reason number two.) But on Turkey day I feel the need to clarify.
The official name of the country is Türkiye, not Turkey.
Enjoy your bird!
I didn't know -- thanks for clarifying!
ReplyDeleteWhat a tidbit. Thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for this info!!! I think Turkiye is a superb name - it's says Nation with a touch of the Exotic! Take care

The fact about the character map is pretty interesting to read and also good to read that you have readers from America.
