(i)stanpol, Naming the cities and great commanders with the letter (i) at the beginning is a dialectical mouth and culture that comes from local ancient languages that have existed for thousands of years in Anatolia. istanpol (istanbul) , ismir (izmir), isparta, iskender, istiklal some of examples.

@@phillyandkeely No problem mate, My guess is that this pronunciation has passed into anchient greek as well from here. another remarkable thing is that it is generally used in texts such as preaching, faith, baptism, oath in anchient Greek. it may be abolished in modern greek or a different word may be used instead. For more, I recommend you to research the Luwians, the first indigenous people of Anatolia and one of the first multi-racial communities to be interested in religions. we know that the Hittites prayed in Luwian language and It is known that the first temple in the world discovered in Şanlıurfa. Also It turned out that Artemis, Aphrodite, Apollon known as the Greek gods, was of Anatolian origin and a form of the Anatolian goddess Cybele. These people may have invented the first religions and it is possible that these words were spread by wars ,trades and different forms. Another fact that recently discovered is many city names, seas and rivers in Turkey and nearby geography are Luwian origin. Also There are many words of Luwian origin in Turkish.

Haha I did wonder if it was lucky. We took it out to check if there were any restrictions as the app usually alerts us, but it said we were good to fly, and we seen another drone floating around low down, so thought it must be ok, so we took it off ❤️ we think it might be because we have the really small drone, maybe it's allowed? However, then later we noticed the other drone hovering around started talking, so wasn't sure if it was a police drone or something? I'm not sure but the shots were beautiful 🤣🥰 very glad we didn't get arrested 👮👮♀️
