This is why I think Turkey's insistence it be called "Türkiye" in English is dumb. English doesn't use umlauts, most English speakers can't even pronounce "ü" properly. English doesn't use "iye" sounds. They should be happy that the country is more-or-less pronounced the way it sounds in Turkish.

I mean, look at some of Turkey's neighbours. Georgia, pronounced "sakartvelo" by the locals. Armenia, called "Hayastan" by the people who live there. Greece, called "Elláda" by people who speak Greek (sorry, speak "elliniká").

People aren't speaking your language when they're talking about your country, they're speaking their own language, and "Turkey" is about as close as English gets to "Türkiye"
