Turkey is a bird. The Turkish word for Turkey is Hindi (which is funny, because the Turkish word for India is Hindistan, -stan means country, so a literal translation of Hindistan is "Country of Turkey")

Türkiye is the Turkish spelling for the Republic of Turkey.



The bird "turkey" is named after the country.
