Pleqse Help me identifying spices.
Hi to everyone. I'm an italian guy and i visite North Macedonia in the previous days. Lovely place, Lovely People. I really enjoyed my time there. Whenever i go, I always visit the local market because I think it reflects in a way the city and also I like to Explore new products, smells etc. I'm also an amateur Cook so in every market I'm like a kid in a toy store. I bought some spices (or spices mix) from a stand but the guy Who sold me didn't talk any english so I didn't understand what I was buying but I was interested in the colors and smell so I bought them anyway thinking that I'll eventually figure it out but I'm having some difficulties doing so. For this reason I ask for your kind help. I attach the photo of the stand where i bought the spices and the 3 bags i bought home. If you identify the spice(or the Spice mix) you can also share the usual way to use the? Thank you to everyone Who will help =D

yellow is vegeta, also known as tuzot. Replaces salt. Gray looks like it is a grounded black pepper.

Yellow bag is labeled turmeric. Red bag is labeled sweet (red pepper). The grey bag doesn't seem to be in the first photo and has no label so I don't know.
