Why Is That ?

I grew up calling the said product Hellim so does that not make me a Cypriot ?

The Turkish Cypriot?
The Greek Cypriot?
Or the Cypriots?

please be serious dp you claimed that if it was not called halloumi then we can all pretty much go to hell . But why do you insist ?

The word halloumi may have come from the word Hellim , Please do not bother to research this as the issue is more about you are claiming that all words used should be Greek

I apologise 100% Cypriot, I know it must be confusing... I guess sometimes I just fancy a change...and when I saw the logo of the dancing man wearing what appears to be a Vraka ('Can't touch this' MC Hammer I believe), well I just couldn't resist... :oops: :wink:

100% i think what I am trying to say is that the Republic of Cyprus wants to register Halloumi like Greece has done with Feta and France with Champagne:
As for the Turkish Cypriot using the word Hellim it is there priority to use it:
So what do you want?
The Republic of Cyprus to register Hellim?
The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus to register Hellim?

I think most foreigner know that Hallomi is a Cypriot Cheese:
So what I thought is that if the Republic of Cyprus register Hallomi on the international scene as the legally recognized country according to the UN the Turkish Cypriot can also use the word Hallomi for export and Hellim for internal use:
OR register both: BUT it is the Hallomi that people know internationally specially in Australia:
To tell you the truth in Australia there are many companies selling Hallomi cheeses Cyprus Style!
AND i think this is what the Republic of Cyprus wants to stop specially in the EU:
cheese! I mean cheers!
DP
PS The Aussie have now registered the following words:
BONZA!
OKKA!
DIGGER!
AUSSIE!
and other words as well!
So where do we draw the line Mate!

Dp if the Tpap Gov has to have Turkish writing on its money then these thing's should be written in turkish as well , as the way you are putting it is that the Turkish Cypriot has no voice in Cyprus and the Naming of Hellim or Halloumi in one language alone depicts that the Product is Greek Or Turkish . The Turkish Cypriots should do the same with any product being exported and the naming of the product should be in Greek as well

Any notion of dual names is nothing short of partitionist as it refuses to recognize the official language of Cyprus and clearly suggests DUAL identity.

My friend, you are really confused! Where is that legal definition which says that Turkish and English are secondary languages of the Republic of Cyprus, where as Greek is the primary language? And what is the actual meaning of a language being the primary or the secondary language of a country?
...

GR's meaning is that Greek Cypriot are primary Cypriots and Turkish Cypriot are secondary Cypriots.

GR, say cheese, and we'll snap a picture. You are really making a clown out of yourself.

When I started this topic what I had in mind was really this:

I suspected that if the Republic of Cyprus from the beginning had applied to register both Halloumi and Hellim then I am pretty sure there would have been Turkish Cypriot protests claiming that Hellim is not a product of the R O C but a product of the T R N C.

Silly, but true isn't it?
