Turkish

<p>
        Turkish has a significant amount of words ending in a consonant that <strong>drop their last vowel when they are followed by a vowel</strong>.
        There is no rule for which words possess this feature, so you will have to memorize the words that do.
        Note however, that many of these words are referring to body parts.
