kelle Explanation: It's kind of a wild guess derived through the pronunciation of the word. "Kelle" means "head" in slang, it may be somehow related. |

Başlık Explanation: Obviously without the context I am only guessing and referring to English to English explanation of Calle in Sesli Sözlük - A kind of head covering; a caul - and looking at the meaning of caul: file başlık in Turkish which is more than a 'başörtü' that covers the face as well as I've seen in some visuals. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day12 hrs (2017-05-14 09:32:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In addition to that as Mr. Turkmen above pointed out that it sounds like 'Kelle' in Turkish Slang. Originally the word itself is Persian and means few things in its slang use. 1. Dumb head, 2. Very Drunk Person 3. Head of Penis. (ref: Great Turkish Slang Dictionary by Hulki Aktunc, 6th edition, Published by YKY 1998. |
