mail2onur. that is amazing.
Couple of questions, firstly, are there many Macedonians living in Turkey.
and secondly, are you Macedonian?
you dont have to answer, no answer would be in the affirmative."The moral revolution - the revolution of the mind, heart and soul of an enslaved people, is our greatest task."__________________Gotse Delchev

Ofc I can answer, why i shouldn't?
I checked the website of Macedonia immigrants association to give you a proper answer. It says that there were around 300.000 muslim people(All could speak Macedonian and Turkish) at Macedonia around 1948s and 200.000 of them migrated to Turkey between 1948...1967 because of the opposition of communist regime and oppression of Bulgars around that time. Also there was immigrants who came to Turkey between 1900...1950 but its difficult to determine their exact population.
Only one of the Macedonia immigrants association in the city of Izmir says they have 50.000+ registered members.
About me;
I really don't know for sure. My parents was from Petrich and they migrated here at 1924. I remember that my grandma could speak Macedonian and Turkish but this is not an indication of anything. They were probably Turkish or half Turkish&Macedonian since it wasn't that uncommon thing 90 years ago.
Also we don't regret something like this here since even the founder of our Republic, Ataturk is half Turkish&Macedonian. Also about %30 of Turkey`s population are Balkan immigrants like that.
So, having multi-cultural heritage is not something to hide here, we are even proud of it. Maybe this is a heritage of the Empire days to us, i dont know.Last edited by Onur; 04-11-2010, 09:45 AM.

The point I made earlier on this thread should not be forgotten:
There are several Macedonian songs that are sung with Greek words in those parts (Kostur, Lerin, etc) or played with no words at all. Of course, you ask the average Greek and these songs are 'pure' Greek, yet, sometimes I look at the Irish and I think about the dozens of patriotic Irish songs they have which they sing in the English language rather than Gaelic, and still you will find no englishman claiming these songs to be for the glory of angloism.
This thread will be in relation to traditional Macedonian folk songs that have been among the culture of the Macedonian people for many years. In many traditional songs there is a story to be told, each has its unique spirit and lesson to be learned, and the reality of the times is certainly reflected in the sentimentsIn the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

These people are probably the children of 1950s immigrants. They teach Macedonian to their kids and most of them can speak Macedonian.
About ~170.000 people came to Turkey at that time(4th big wave of immigration from Macedonia). Most of them living in Izmir now.Last edited by Onur; 05-02-2010, 01:03 PM.
