Please don't follow up on hidden agendas that you know very little or nothing about. I specifically stated that this is not a language issue, people can speak and write whatever language thet want in Turkey. The official language is Turkish, what languages people use in their everyday lives is up to them, there are no restrictions. For your information, there are a couple of radio stations broadcasting in Kurdish. Why insist on having a "Kurdish locale in Turkey"? You can set the language to Kurdish, as well as Arabic, Georgian, Greek, Armenian etc. all of which are spoken to some degree in Turkey. So, instead of citing political mumbo jumbo, maybe you can just tell us where you get the information and whether there is another agenda here. Kurdish on its own would be correct just as Basque is (It's not Basque (Spain)) If you would like to learn more please don't hesitate to ask, I would be glad to help clear out any misunderstanding and wrong conceptions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
