No need for insults; they don’t strengthen your argument. 😊
“Deutsch” literally means “German” in the German language, so your own example actually proves my point even further.
Also, I didn’t “twist words” I shared my personal experience and referenced documented facts. Reporting guests to the government isn’t common everywhere; it’s a policy specific to certain countries, akin to heightened surveillance, and it understandably makes many visitors uncomfortable once they realize what’s happening.
As for the historical point: we’re talking about relatively recent periods here, since languages evolve substantially even over a few centuries. The English word “Turkey” has existed for hundreds of years in international use, long before any modern rebranding campaign. The term “Türkiye” was only officially pushed for global adoption in 2021–2022 by the Turkish government itself.
You’re absolutely free to prefer “Türkiye,” but that doesn’t mean everyone else is required to change how their own language works or adapt to another country’s preferences. That’s exactly how linguistic independence - and freedom of expression - function.

I don't mean the Germany, i meant the Deutsch for German. The very first word of "Türk" were found in Chinese and Uyghur Turks' sources which means it is older than your so-called history. You have to report your stay just because of the fricking safety of ours. You do the same thing when you're in other countries. So, don't even try to twist the words. The Byzantines named our country "Turkiye" in their way. After we changed our alphabet into Turkish one, ig they chose and started using it. The very Turkish version of ourselves is "Türkeli" or "Türkili".So again you chose Turkey name on your own, not us. You tried you idiot :)
Wrong lol. We don’t say “Deutsch” for “Germany.” We say Germany in English, Deutschland in German.
The name-change request came from Turkey’s own government in 2021–2022, when they asked other countries and international organizations to use “Türkiye” instead of “Turkey” in foreign languages.
No one “decided” the English name for them, it’s Existed For Centuries, long before this rebranding effort.
When I Lived in Turkey, I noticed how closely Visitors Were Monitored. Even short-term renters had to report their stay to the authorities, which felt extremely invasive.
Reports from Amnesty International and others describe journalists and protestors being detained for peaceful expression. It’s troubling to see how far state control can reach, from speech inside the country to even influencing what words others use abroad.
That kind of overreach shouldn’t extend into other people’s languages or countries.
The Turkish government's PR campaign doesn’t rewrite English history. But it’s cute that you tried. 😉

It’s Turkiye/Türkiye/Republic of Turkiye or Turkish Republic. If you can write Deutsch for German, you can write Turkiye or the other options as well. Turkey was decided by other countries and it was not our choice. So learn the damn name and use it :)
