Nazar Boncugu

Jim Windlinger demonstrates one possible use of the Turkish anti-evil-eye amulet, the Nazar Boncugu. Note on pronunciation: the "c" in "boncugu" is pronounced like an English "j", and the g is silent, so pronounce it as if it were spelled "nazar bonju".

Nazar Boncugu

Jim Windlinger demonstrates one possible use of the Turkish anti-evil-eye amulet, the Nazar Boncugu. Note on pronunciation: the "c" in "boncugu" is pronounced like an English "j", and the g is silent, so pronounce it as if it were spelled "nazar bonju".
