Why Opereyşın?
Finding high-quality, original content online is a challenge — especially in Turkish. We recognized this gap and set out to fill it.
Our Translation Team curates the best content from around the web and translates it into Turkish. Meanwhile, our Authors Team shares their unique perspectives on what they love and make. The result is a perfect blend — a delightful dessert we call Opereyşın.
Opereyşın. What does it mean?
“Opereyşın” is a playful, phonetic spelling of the English word “Operation” using Turkish pronunciation.
In Turkish, foreign words are often written the way they sound phonetically to Turkish ears. So: “Operation” (English) (\ˌä-pə-ˈrā-shən\) becomes “Opereyşın” in Turkish-style phonetics:
O-pe-rey-şın (like it would be pronounced by a Turkish speaker).
This playful spelling gives the blog a distinctive local identity and mirrors its unique blend of international content and Turkish cultural flavor — much like Opereyşın itself.
