Non-PRO English to Turkish Other Other Vocab Item
Hi,

Today in Izmir I bought several books and was given some free bookmarks. When the shop assistant asked me if I wanted bookmarks I didn't recognise the word she had used so I asked her to repeat it. She said that it was “ayıraç”, adding that in Izmir they tended to cut out the I and pronounce it “ayraç”.

However, nowhere can I find anything to authenticate this word in any of my dictionaries.

All the best,

Simon

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (2): Selcuk Akyuz, kalkhas

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

ayraç

kitap ayracı olarak kullanılagelse de olması gereken ayraç kelimesidir. kitap ayracı, ansiklopedi ayracı, süreli yayın ayracı olmayacağı gibi.

tdk "bellik" diye bir kelime de vermiş. dilde kullanım kazanır mı bilinmez.
