I would like to help you about Turkish. (I studied Turkish language teaching at university.) But it is a hard language,especially grammar (it's not like English at all) even sometimes I think that to teach Turkish is more difficult than to learn it.

But as far as I see you are very good at languages.

Yes,maybe but I think the difficult part of Greek is the alphabet...I think pronunciation is pretty easy.But I have no idea about grammar yet.I would like to learn Greek one day,bcoz I listen Greek music very much and I feel like I must learn it...but I don't have time now...

In Turkish pronunciation is not that easy,we have some unusual letters like "ö","ü","ğ" etc...To learn alphabet is not a problem at all,the problem is to make true sentences...

Yes, the greek pronunciation is easy, but the grammar and the syntext is very difficult.

From turkish i know the alphabet, the pronunciation and to make plural (-lar and -ler) and some words and frases.

I bet your Turkish is much better than my Greek.

Anyway,if you have any questions about Turkish feel free to ask.

Tipota Maria mou.Esi ise glika too. (I hope I said correctly.)

The correct one is : "Milenacım" >> Milena mou

Or "Milena'm" means "my Milena",you don't need to use "benim" ,"im" is possessive suffix.

[maria_gr]

Yes, it's right. By the way too in greek is episis.

Yes, I thought it was wrong cause it doesn't sound well. I know only how to say it when it ends with consonant (eg, Berrin'im), but your name ends with vocal so I wasn't sure. Thanks, now I know it, Milenacim.

You're welcome Maria.

As you guessed it depends on consonant or vocal,so if a name ends with a vocal "m" is enough,but if it ends with a consonant it can be "im","üm","um"etc...

Οοοps, that sounds complicated...

I had told you. It is complicated.

There are lots of sound changes and suffixes in Turkish.

You can find detailed information here:

Yes in America about 99.9% of fraternities and sororities use a combination of 2 to 3 Greek letters for the names of their organizations and then each chapter for each school has a Greek letter starting from alpha through multiple letter to distinguish the first to the newest. While pledging, they must also learn all the Greek letters. Some frats and sororities might take 2 Greek letters and one non to create their name.
