What does the turkey say now
It's interesting to translate turkey into foreign languages. For example, turkey is called Indian chicken in Turkey, Peruvian chicken in India and Greek chicken in the Middle East. Moreover, such names emerge one after another, and each country has a different understanding and address of Turkey.
But in our big China, turkeys are called turkeys. But in East Africa, France and Greece, as well as Arabia, the Netherlands and Malaysia, their names for turkeys include Indian chicken, French chicken, Roman chicken, Calgary chicken and Dutch chicken.
If there are different names for turkeys around the world, I believe you can circle the earth several times. So why eat turkey on Thanksgiving Day? In fact, it originated from harvest celebrations in Europe. At the European dinner many years ago, the popular main course was roast goose, but later they knew that turkey was more delicious than goose, so they inherited this food in the traditional way.
But it's interesting that the English name of turkey is actually Turkish chicken. Because this kind of turkey was brought to Europe by Turkish businessmen, it got its name. But later, because the Spanish came to America, they found a kind of guinea fowl similar to poultry, which was very delicious, so they brought it back to Europe. Since then, turkeys have appeared.
