Disclaimer, Site Information, and Links

Paramparça is a part of ZeynepGoral.com, a collective of various websites that I created and maintain. Paramparça was open to the public on January 1st 2003.

My name is Zeynep. If you feel like contacting me for any number of reasons, please feel free to e-mail me. I'd love to hear if I've interested you in Turkish pop, or if you noticed something that needs correcting. However, please keep in mind that I do not take translation requests.

This site is an archive. Updates may be scarce. Total number of songs translated: 198

Other websites that could be of interest:

  • Ekşi Sözlük : A Turkish dictionary that helped me with older words and proverbs.
  • Sesli Sözlük : The online dictionary I use. It also has sound clips for pronunciation.
  • Tulumba.com : A Turkish music store based in New York.
  • Turkcemuzik : Helped me find some of the Turkish lyrics for artists for which I didn't have CDs. There is an English version also (check top left).
  • Akmarket.com : Another general online Turkish store with multimedia.

Amazon.com also has some CD's of Turkish artists, but not too large a selection. If you know of other places that I should post here, feel free to tell me so I can share the wisdom.

The short song clips in the Featured Artists section are all less than 30 seconds long and run at 48kps. They are meant as samples to encourage buying the actual CDs. I do not claim any of the artist's work as my own; this website is solely a fan tribute. I only claim my own personal English translations featured on this site. Please do not reproduce any of my translations anywhere else.
