> In the case of vowels, Turkish contains eight different short vowels and no long ones, whereas Arabic (and Persian) have three short and three long vowels;

Now, the alphabet of Turkish language is latin. This statement applies to Latin alphabet as well. Latin alphabet does not contain all the vowels and but Turkish version latin alphabet contains the necessary vowels. The problems are solved just as done in Arabic alphabet.

The thing is that assuming these adjustments as a conflict is meaningless. More, calling it funny is just an ignorance of linguistics. After reading this passage, I would think that Turkish people cant write in Turkish during Ottoman era because of the alphabet limitations. Then, millions of Ottoman manuscripts would deny me.

Wikipedia is a practical source of information, but not necessarily a trustful and truthful one. If anybody thinks that these are valid statements to achieve a success on a language, just consider applying same revolution on English language to achieve the same success. Catastrophic, right? What happened has just happened. Just don't polish this move.

Well design of one-to-one relationship between users and shops. Then, they solve the problem that approach has brought. Nothing particular at the article.

But the perfectness always comes with the practicing.

You are right. I have updated my comment :)

I am one of whom has switched its browser because of this issue. I have seen that in the blog post, they claim Chrome will offer an option not to allow chrome sign in when you sing in on a google service. Let me describe your mentality: hey there who is aware of what they use. I have an option for you. You can turn this feature off. For the others, this will be default. Why don't you simply make this option closed as default?

Do you still want to play with your users, Google? It's your product and your choice. Good night and good luck

I hope there could be more tests on Brave browser, too, which aims to improve privacy. But its most lovely feature imo is opening any kind of tab (normal, private, private on Tor network) on the same window. I wonder if this causes some backdoors, though. I support so that it can become better.

One approach to test the effectiveness of a translator is translating a passage from L1 to L2 and then its reverse. When you do this action many times, if the final version of the passage in L1 gives the meaning of the original passage in L1; then it is a stable translator. They do this test for English-German at Linguee translator. Their claim is that it is more successful than Google translate in these terms. This gives another idea that Google Translate does not give strong results for English-German translations. Considering German is much more closer language to English than Turkish, I don't expect much from Google Translate. Thus, I don't see it as a proof to any argument.

Many mistranslations may be a result of lack of work/research in Turkish language. I don't agree with that Turkish language does not get along with computers well. Yet, there is not a mature work on this. If a language is understandable, analyzable, executable, expressible by humans, computers most probably can process it (this is a claim, not a fact).

Actually, this is not an exception in Turkish. It is because of that "meyhane" is a foreign word (adapted from Persian). In any case, no one will expect smo to pronounce these 'e's distinguishably.

Many books are written to shape the history in the benefits of some countries. Linking them with other topics will attract more attention and will help to exaggerate effects of their claims. The passage above from wikipedia is a nice example of this propaganda technique. Underground cities are associated with totally another political issue. The blog post, the situation is just inflated and dramatized more: domino effect. It would be too long and unnecessary to answer all accusations, though. Here is not a place for historical or political discussions. Therefore, to sum up, as a local of Cappadocia, I can say that these places are not really unknown places. In this area, there are many underground cities inside the villages (since at least 1900s), not in isolated places. People used these places as warehouses. If a crime existed, then people could have been found there at most as hardly as in a normal village. Hiding on mountains would be a more plausible option. In the early centuries, against invasions, it may be safer than a regular village, because they are generally inside valleys and not in a place where a popular road passes. So, it can't be discovered from far points by eyes.

There are many churches in caves or as buildings. The ones as buildings are from 1800s. Ones in the caves are more older apparently. Also, many historical Greek houses exist. Majority of them contains caves as parts.

It's pathetic that the author has written Turks slaughtered Greeks in 1900s and forced them to leave. An absolute ignorance of history. If Turks has slaughtered any Christian population in their country, how had these people been able to live for above 400 years under their ruling? Oh of course, by hiding in underground cities in Cappadocia.
