It was a nice a video, and I can tell you why it's called Muz! In Arabic, Banana means مَوْز "Mawz", and the Turks took the islamic caliphate role and made the ottoman empire, so they took the name from Arabs and made it "Muz". There are many Arabic lone words in Turkish!

[@facoulac]

these maps look nice. good job and commentary from a greek!

[@turkchap]

Thank you!

[@georgios_5342]

Really cool video, I had been anticipating it for quite a while. Congrats!

[@turkchap]

Always great to see your comment, thank you :)

[@Samuil-iq6eb]

You have no brain, georgios. Greece didn't exist before 1830.😂

[@darkshinigami9438]

2:51 Why in the second map, there is not the Alexandretta / Iskenderun part? Was it part of Syria at that time?

[@turkchap]

Hatay joined Türkiye in 1939

[@murategeli6701]

Because Hatay part of Turkey.

Smyrna/izmir: The word originates from the Pelasgians before the ancient Greeks, there is a case for both the word and the language to be more ancient than the whole world, while for example Dorylaeo is simply ancient Greek

[@dimitriosvlissides5781]

How do you know is pelasgian do you know any pelasgian unless you are albanian and you claim that the hole universe is Albanian sqipeterian

[@Anargyros-f3y]

@@dimitriosvlissides5781 I have read it, I read a lot about Anatolia, Anatolia is a Greek word and yes Albanians are too illiterate in the comments and everything.δημητρη

10:30 the Turkish word "muz" is from Arabic مَوْز‎ mawz

[@rtvitko]

I think the Arabic word is the root of the innovated Latin name, and thus the modern genus

[@darkshinigami9438]

4:41 Smyrna, not Symrna

[@SuiuS1]

Since when has Tazmania been independent from Australia?

[@turkchap]

I guess since I accidentally marked it that way. An honest mistake, sorry bout that.

[@Bonkers_Boi]

10:23 the Spanish word for banana is "plátano"

[@ecranfortessa]

Sí, pero hay gente que dice "banana". Pocos, pero hay. xd

[@Irzusa]

Also in Persian and Arabic language Banana is called: Muz

[@biorix9704]

Iran uses Persian script, it looks like Arabic, but has more features. Never confuse Persian with Arabic in front of a Iranian person or it's your last day alive

[@turkchap]

There are 4 extra letters also some modifications, this is literally what I said. I know it well that Persian and Arabic are completely different. You are saying this to the wrong person mate. Persian is an Indo-European language, Arabic is a Semitic one. Also the Iranian people are very very different than the Arab people as well. Different cultures. I myself consider the Iranians I meet to be educated and quality people. No one is mixing Iran and Persian with anything.

[@RashadGasimli2005]

Well, the modern-day persian script is literally arabic script with modification. Also we Azerbaijanis uses latin script with small modifications, so it means Azerbaijan uses its own script ( Azerbaijani script)? Definetly not. Modificating the script doesn't mean "owning". Thank you for read.

[@Samuil-iq6eb]

Persian uses Arabic script lmao, every language adds something or throws something, learn before embarrassing yourself.

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

Kurdish means Kurmanji language in Turkiye. I am saying this because Kurdish is not a single language unlike Turkish. Kurdish is group of languages just like Oghuz or even a wider concept.

[@shkoata366]

Where did you get this information? Kurdish is one language with two main dialects kurmanji and sorani. Dialects exists in many languages and makes them richer Are you a kurd or someone who studies kurdish language? Why would you state something untrue about the kurdish language?

[@samankucher5117]

kurdish have regional divisions that are kurmanji sorani and zazaki and kolhori and gorani ...and more

[@kiiiiit5109]

Muz for banana?😅 what is ice called in Turkish? Almost all central Asian Turkic languages call ice as Muz

[@turkchap]

[@محمد21-غ4ت]

Muz iz arabic

[@Rhythm412]

Yes the Turkish word for banana which is 'muz' came from Arabic موز which got adapted directly from Arabic.

[@KoraySelduman]
