re <<Auto turning ... Greek ? Gyro ?>> Good catch! That gyros dish I ate in college comes from the same Greek word... Gyros en.wikipedia.org The name comes from the Greek ????? (gyros, 'circle' or 'turn'), and is a calque of the Turkish word döner, from dönmek, also meaning "turn".[14] It was originally called ?t???? (pronounced [do'ner]) in Greece.[10] The word ?t???? was criticized in mid-1970s Greece for being Turkish.[15] The word gyro or gyros was already in use in American English by at least 1970,[11] and along with ????? in Greek, eventually came to replace doner kebab for the Greek version of the dish.[10] Some Greek restaurants in the US, such as the Syntagma Square in New York City—which can be seen briefly in the 1976 film Taxi Driver[16]—continued to use both doner kebab and gyros to refer to the same dish, in the 1970s.[17]
