What is the Turkish word for "person who cries"?

Or something equivalent. I'm writing a story and one of the characters cries a lot, so I want her to be called whatever the word is for "weeper" or "person who cries."

    you can use "Mizmiz" which means wiener.

    You can also use "Aglak" which means a person who cries very easy.

    It would be better if you could write the whole sentence since the meaning can change due to the wording.

  • The answer is "Thanksgiving Turkey", because they cry a lot at this time of year.....and "Turkish Towel" is that think they cry into....maybe you should find the Turkish word for "flightless bird who has no chance of escape" and call her that......

  • "ağlayan" means "crier".

    Yes, Nalan is a name, and it might mean that.

    Kurds, and McCain aren't Turkish as far as I know.

    You could also use the name "Nazlı". Naz means coyness, and Nazlı means coy.

    Hope I helped! Please choice me as best answer! ;p
