Word Ways
Abstract
The following list of English-looking Turkish words has been compiled from two sources: Alderson and Fahir Iz's Oxford Concise English-Turkish Dictionary (1959), and Urdant's Random House English Language Dictionary (1968). A few capitalized words (given names, geographical place names) have been included. None of the words has the same meaning in Turkish and English. Because most people are unfamiliar with Turkish, the Turkish meaning of each word is given in parenthesis.
