(Editor’s note: In Turkish, the words Gezi (Geziler) and Yolculuk (Yolculuklar) also mean Trip (Trips). When one or a group of people are going on a shorter trip or excursion (e.g., a day trip) Gezi is the conventional word used to describe the event. When it comes to an expression about a trip (e.g., Have a good trip!), the base word, Yolculuk, is conventionally used. Seyahat (Seyahatler) is the conventional word used to describe a bona fide trip where the event occurs over an extended period of time. (e.g., a week long vacation or a month long trip)
