[Say goodbye to Turkey and hello to Türkiye.
The government of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has asked the international community to recognise Turkey by its Turkish name Türkiye, dropping the long-standing anglicised version that was often confused with the famous Thanksgiving animal. "The word Türkiye represents and expresses the culture, civilisation, and values of the Turkish nation in the best way," Erdoğan said.] https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2...ged-their-name Petty reason |

You can tell Erdoğan, "no" from me. I speak English. Or at least I try to. And he can't make me, so tough titty.

POW! BLAM!

It's pronounced basically the same. You could NOT say it their way and no-one would notice.
I sometimes wonder what if every country was called by its native name tbh
