Today I learned that the direct translation for kahverengi, the Turkish word for brown, is 'the color of coffee'. Of course it is.
The other day I discovered that the school library is never open past 9 pm, or on Saturdays. Of course it's not.
When the clocks changed this spring, there was no set time to do so. At around 4 pm all of the city buses changed, but none of the trains changed until midnight. Every person had a different time, but every person was on time according to 'Turkish Time' (you get there when you get there, typically an hour or so past the time you agree upon). Of course they were.
