The language is Turkish.
Turkish is'nt an easy language to learn, but it's worth
picking up a few words and phrases to amuse yourself and to
astonish and delight Turks! Despite oddities such as the
silent 'g'(?) and undotted i (?) , Turkish is phonetic and
simple to pronounce. In a few minutes you can get the hang
of the sounds, and then you're ready to start talking. Most
letters are said just as they're written: but here's a list
of the tricky ones :
A,a short, as in 'ant'.
E,e short as in 'bell'.
İ,i as 'ee' in 'bee'.
I,ı 'uh' like the 'e' in 'open'.
Ö,ö as German 'ö', or 'fur'.
U,u short as 'oo' in 'moon'.
Ü,ü same as German 'ü', or 'pew'.
C,c is a 'j', as jam.
Ç,ç 'ch' is in 'chin'.
G,g always hard, as in 'get'.
Ğ,ğ: not pronounced, lengthens preceding vowel, ignore it!
H,h always pronounced, as in 'hat'.
J,j as in French 'j', or 'rouge'.
S,s always 'ss', never 'z'.
Ş,ş 'sh' as in 'ship'.
X,x not used, Turks use 'ks' instead.

Some Turkish customs
A sink plug may come in useful, as many hotels and small
pensions do not supply a plug. This is because in the Muslim
faith it is preferred that one washes in running water. A
torch may be needed as some areas of road in Dalyan are
unlit and of an uneven surface. Dalyan also has many power
cuts but these usually only last for a short while. Credit Cards :
You can obtain money from banks with your cards but may find it
difficult to purchase goods, as many shops in Dalyan do not have
the facilities for credit cards.
Water :
Although the water is very clean but it is not recommended
that you drink it due to the high mineral content. Bottled
water is not expensive.
Photography :
The Turkish landscape is perfect for photographic
opportunities. Do be careful of Military Zones, inside
museums and some local people may be offended if you take
their picture. It is always wise to ask first.
Post Office :
These can easily be spotted by the yellow PTT sign. Expect
post to England to take at least a week.
