Today, I went to Turkish exhibition at Jakarta Convention Center in Senayan, Central Jakarta to cover the issue about it. The exhibition was about Turkish export products. Actually I was not feeling well this morning, but I really needed to be responsible for my job, so I went to the exhibition with weak feeling and sleepy eyes.
When I got there, I entered the room, where the opening ceremony was conducted, and I found so many Turkish people inside the room. I started to open my eyes, looked from left to right, forward and backward, and the searching had begun (hahaha...).
But the fact, I was dissapointed because there were only old businessmen in the exhibition *sigh :( ===> hoped that one of them had brought the son, but NADA! (zzzz...)..
After the opening ceremony, I went out of the room and started to walk around the exhibition's area. There were around 33 Turkish companies with various type of products, such as wheat flour, pasta, hazelnut, kitchen appliances, jelly, candy, cosmetics, electronics, products for babies, and cooking oil.
And can you imagine, readers? I found a pasta company with a very strange name, but maybe it was not strange in Turkish language, but it had very irritating meaning in Bahasa, let me show you the name..
See readers, could you eat this kind of pasta after you saw the name? (hahaha...)
Ok, for my foreign readers, I will explain a little bit about this thing.. So the name on the picture, if in Bahasa, means sh*t (can you imagine that? hahahaha...), what a name..
I will find out the meaning in Turkish, let me ask my friend who knows Turkish language..wait..wait..wait..and the answer is 'bright' or 'clear', woowww...what a total different meaning, ckckckck... So I think its ok to eat the pasta after I found out the meaning in Turkish, hahaha...
This is one of the beauty of languages, how God is very good.. The other example is below:
The left picture is the symbol of German kitchen appliances company.
The name on the left picture if in Javanese language has a very irritating meaning (I cannot even explain the meaning to you, readers, so I will skip to explain the meaning) and it has no meaning in Germany, waaahh..what a name...Nice..
