Between stones and stories of an authentic village
Discover the enchantment of the ancient village of Turi, amidst cobbled alleys, hidden squares, and centuries-old stories. A journey that takes you back in time, to experience the authenticity of a place rich in culture, tradition, and charm.
In the dialect of Turi, some expressions are more than words: they are layered stories, cultural inheritances that come from far away. “Jèje figghie alla gaddìna bianghe” is one of them.
In the Apulian context, “meh” is less a word with a fixed meaning than a flexible expressive unit, capable of conveying multiple meanings through a single tone of voice — much like a glance, a shrug, or a facial expression, but verbalized. This quality makes it a distinctive feature of everyday communication, not only in dialects, but also in contemporary popular culture.
