peer agreement (net): +1Siyah renkli ve beyaz bıyıklı Ankara kedisi Explanation: Angora cats are generally white as shown in below link, though some other colors seen. Your question is not so clear :mustache or black means Bıyık veya Siyah. But your description indicates a cat from tales: A cat with boots, if you mean this famous tales (Left to smallest child of farmer )it is : Çizmeli Kedi (cizmeli kedi-similar English fonts ). But if you ask only male Turkish Angora cat who is black with a white mustache : The answer is "Siyah renkli ve beyaz bıyıklı Ankara kedisi " instead you may also say Siyah tüylü ve beyaz bıyıklı Ankara kedisi " -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2001-12-30 08:33:16 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think \"Kömür \" of murad aşkın best for your cat( means coal/charcoal. ) if you are looking for a Turkish name for Turkish Angora cat Reference: http://animals.kolayweb.com/ankara.htm |

"Mustache" = Bıyık; "black" = kara, siyah Explanation: The job is to use the words "mustache" or "black"as descriptive elements in naming a male Turkish Angora cat. My comment: "Bıyık" and "kara" are not words generally used in description the cats and the Angora cats. In case, "Ak Bıyık" or "Karam" may be used. |

komur Explanation: I think komur is the best. But one should explain the orthograph in case the asker can not view turkish letters. Let's say "komur" with two points on both o and u. As for the prononciatıon; In "ko", "k" is pronounced as "c" in cup, and "o" is as "ir" in bird. In "mur", "ur" is pronounced as "ure" in "pure". Note: I agree with the first answerer but there wasn't enough space to add a comment this is why I had to add an answer. |
