    Default Germanic-Turkic linguistic allegories

    This is the most mysterious circumstance I have ever observed in linguistics, but I don't know why. Can you explain following allegories?

    English - Turkic
    Where? - Kayer? [compare Middle English 'wher', 'quher', literally “at what place”, compare to Turkic 'ka' (at what) and 'yer' (place).]
    Where at? - Kayer te?
    When - Kanu?
    Whom - Kim?
    Why - Kayu?
    Whence - Kança?
    Wait - Küt
    Waiter - Küter
    Waiting - Kütgen
    Will - Kıl
    Willing - Kılgan
    Wry - Ekri

    There are too many words in european languages that are Turkic. But thanks to shifting of the vowels in the european languages, most are now unrecognisable to a modern speaker or reader. I could give you many thousands of word examples from english that are turkish. For instance the letter -w, said to be coming from the Old Germanic -w/ka letter. Somehow this -w/ka has softened to a -w sound. Now we know that letter -w was back in time gave out a -ka sound. Lets work some words out:

    Wres.tle - Küreş.itüli
    Wres.tled - Küreş.itüldi
    Wres.tling - Küreş.itülgen

    too many - münü

    some pronouns..

    English - Turkic
    Me (Old Englsh: min) - Min, men
    You (old english: 'syn' , later in time 'thyn') - sin, sen
    She - Eş (woman)
    Ær (old english man soldier) - Er

    Also keep in mind Proto-Germanic '*wīz' ("we") and Proto-Turkic '*biz' ("we")...
    or German 'Sie' ("they") and Turkic 'siz/sez' ("they")...

    I ont really think they have something in common maybe they had a past influence but that is also thousands of years old.

    English: top
    Turkic: tepe
    indigenous North America: tepe

    English: money
    Turkic: manat

    English: say
    Turkic: söy.le

    Additionally, for example, the English term "COUNTRY", when rearranged as "CONUT-YR", is the Turkic expression "KONUT YER" meaning "dwelling place". The equivalent of this concept in Turkish would be "KENT (GENT), KONUT (GONUT), KONTU (KONDU, GONDU)" meaning "established dwellings area, city, town, village". It must be noted that the transliterated form "NU.T" is already in the Turkish words "KENT, KONUT and KONTU" which also contain the name KON (KÜN, GÜN) meaning the "sun". Thus, even this English word has been reconstructed from these Turkic words.

    I really love to enjoy moments like this, it makes me fun when people try to deny simple linguistics, in this case the wellknown Old Germanic -w/-ka vowel shift.

    Especially when they fail to see the similarity between Middle English 'quher' and Turkic 'kayer' or PIE *kʷo-.

    They seem less similar than Kipchak Håkan and AseNa.
