International words Turkish - English

Hello everybody!!!!

I would love to create a list of those Turkish words ( or maybe even sentences) which are pronounced exactly or close the same as in English. Mostly this means that these words are internation terms & they are spelled similar in many of the world languages. For example, proje, program, televizyon, konferans, etc.

So can anybody help me about this and copy here some more examples / lists or websites where I could find necessery information for creating this? It can be useful for everybody here to memorise new words better and to extend vocabulary!

Thanks in addition.

Best regards,
Santa

You can find a list of loanwords on these two pages. I think especially the loanwords of french origin are easy to memorize for learners as they are similar with English. This is a good way to build vocabulary. Good luck!
