Yağız, YAĞIZ	Ya\u{g}{\i}z

Y /j/ A /a/ Ğ This is referred soft "g". It is silent, used to lengthen the previous vowel. Think of it as the Turkish equivalent of the gh in through I The lowercase version of this is a dotless i (ı). It is pronounced like the e in legend or i in cousin. The pronunciation is made by shaping your lips to say e (as in bread), but trying to say u (as in you) instead. Z /z/
