ISO name change for Türkiye

That's horrible. The Turkish "i" is a never ending source of locale nightmares. I really wish they would pick a new letter for one of the sounds and use the standard "i" for the other. Like maybe use a diaresis.

I wish the word "read" is read as read instead of read in past tense form.

Funny, there was a time when I was still learning English (well, it's a never-ending process, but still), and for quite some time I was using "red" as a past tense of "read"! No spell-checker ever corrected me :-) In fact no one did, I just noticed one day that it's not how it's spelled in books...

IPA uses ɨ for the central sound.
