Idioms / Maxims / Sayings / A cartoon by Serkan Altuniğne
Turkish term or phrase: anaa karı abaza çıktı
The cartoon is somewhat rude & shows two men taking advantage of a woman. In it one of the men says anaa karı abaza çıktı to a woman the other man addresses as yenge (aunt? sister-in-law?). Abaza presumably means randy. What does the rest mean?

Hey, this is one horny chick
Explanation:
I am not really sure about this without any wider context. I can only guess that "anaa" means "ana", with an extra "a" added to show that the second syllable is extended as it is pronounced, and that it is used here to express astonishment, and that "abaza" is, as you have suggested, a contracted form of "abazan" - although I always associate the latter word with men rather than women (and this is what the TDK dictionary tells us).

An excellent translation! This deserves the full marks! As for abaza, it is no doubt an Eastern Anatolian dialect form for abazan cf. in this dialect
the n sound which is at the end of words like bilin has a different pronunciation viz. it is a nasal 'n'.
