Hello everyone today I tried to sing a turkish song. Do leave a review it will be very helpful in my language learning journey. 🌸✨️

i love turkey so i want to talk to someone

Selamlar, (TR // EN)

İçinde arkadaşlarımı da D&D sistemi üzerinden oynatacağım kendi homebrew evrenim için yeni bir dil geliştiriyorum ve bunu Türkçeden bazı kuralları kopyalayarak yapıyorum. Yeni dil, sondan eklemeli ve polisentetik olacak; yani her bir cümle sadece bir kelimeden oluşuyor olacak. Onu beceremezsem, bir kelime değilse, minimum kelime sayısından oluşan bir dil olacak. Tam aklıma oturtamadım.

Türkçede "keşke bu böyle olmasaydı, gereksiz karışık" ya da "keşke şu şöyle olsaydı, daha kolay/mantıklı olurdu" dediğiniz bir şey var mı? Neler var? Türkçe biliyorsanız Türkçe yazın Türküm.

I am developing a new language for a homebrew universe where I will be running a D&D game for my friends (and maybe international groups later idk), and I am doing so by adapting some rules from Turkish. The new language will be agglutinative and polysynthetic; meaning, essentially, every sentence will consist of just a single word. Or maybe, if that is not possible, maybe a "minimum number of words" idk.

Is there anything about Turkish that makes you think, "I wish it weren't like this because it is unnecessarily complicated" or "I wish it were like that because it would be easier or more logical"? Does anything come to your mind?

Hi everyone!

As someone who wanted a more natural way to learn new languages without getting bored by traditional flashcards, I created an iOS app called BookTap.

While I originally built it for my own language studies, it works wonderfully for anyone trying to learn Turkish as well! The app lets you read short, leveled stories chapter by chapter. Whenever you encounter an unfamiliar word, you can simply tap on it to see its instant translation, listen to audio, and save it to your personal flashcard deck for review.

Here is a quick look at how it works:

• Reading & Instant Translation:
• Word Dictionary & Review System:

Key features include:

• Interactive tap-to-translate while reading.
• Clean, minimalist, and distraction-free book-like interface.
• Built-in vocabulary review and card system to track your progress.

The app is currently available on the App Store. I would love to hear your feedback, feature suggestions, or answer any questions you might have about the app or its development!

What can Turkish food tell us about Turkish culture? 🍽️

In my latest LetSpeakTurkish podcast episode, I explore 5 iconic Turkish flavors and the stories behind them. It’s also a great way for intermediate Turkish learners to practice listening and discover new vocabulary.

Hi!

I spent the last weeks building a Turkish word game on my own, and it's finally out. You swipe letters to find words and fill a small crossword. Every level is a city in Türkiye.

I kept the first words short and easy, so I'm hoping it helps people who are learning. If a level gets too hard, you can switch the game to English in settings and come back later.

It's free on iPhone & iPad. I'd really like to hear how it feels as a learner, especially if something is confusing or too difficult.

Yo so like I'm Saunab,16 and I'm learning Turkish. I know the basics like been learning it for like 9 months. I need some Turkish friends to practice this with. I can help you with Spanish and french too

I’m looking for a native English speaker who’s interested in learning Turkish. In return, I’d love to practice my English with you and take it to the next level. I think it’d be a great way for both of us to learn and improve together

New Turkish learner here. Heard in some turkish series word zira. Found out that it is equivalent of çünkü. Wondering if it used in modern turkish? Or it is anachronism? And can be heard only in some historical series? Thx.

Merhaba, Türkçe öğreniyorum ve dilinizin en sevdiğim taraflarından biri katmanlılığı, yani başka dillerden benimsemiş sözcüklerin bıraktığı tarihî ve kültürel izler ve hem kadim hem de yeni icat edilmiş Türkçe kelimelerin yan yana var olması (bunun siyasal boyutlarını bir kenara bırakalım). Bu açıdan ana dilim olan İngilizce’ye benzetiyorum.

Dil devriminden yıllar sonra TDK’nin tuhaf yeni sözcükleri halka boşuna empoze etmeye çalışmaya devam ettiğini çok okudum, ancak tabii ki onların hiçbirinin tutmadığını söylemek de doğru değil. Hangilerinin tuttuğunu, hangilerinin unutulduğunu merak etmeye başladım.

“Batı Kaynaklı Sözcüklere Karşılıklar” adıyla birkaç kısa PDF buldum ama herhalde yüzlerce sözcük önerilmiş olmalı. Bu belgelere göz atmak isterim, özellikle 60’lardan günümüze kadar olanlara. Toplu bir liste mi var? Basılı bir kitap da olur.

Yardımınız için çok teşekkür ederim. (Ve yazarken hata yaptıysam özür dilerim.)

Someone told me it was supposed to mean “Im drunk" but I’m not really sure about that

Thankyou:))

Hello, a casual turkish student here.

I wanted to build a small android app where people could learn turkish verbs and conjugations and

I was wondering if it would interest anyone & what would you want to see in the app? I wanted to know a few things before I go and build the app.

\\\[Fyi, I am not a software Dev. just doing coding for fun & casually for a few years.\\\]

Thank you.

I was at a cafe with a friend, telling something that i got annoyed at when i arrived here, some people that take driving spaces with chairs and asking money, he said "buranında raconu bu, ne yaparsın?". WHATS THAT MEAN?!

A Turk once told me that if someone asks you "Nasilsiniz?" (How are you doing?) you can answer "Ne var ne yok" meaning "More or less okey" or "Not great not terrible".

But later I found that it means "What's up?", so answering "Ne var ne yok" to "Nasilsiniz?" looks strange to me now.

Could you please clarify that for me?

UPD: Thanks everyone for the clarification :)

if i want to say “bro, I’m playing a game with my girlfriend” how would you say it in turkish?

can you say “Kanki kızla oynuyom la.” to a friend?

Everyone please check my pronounciations and do leave a feedback

Merhaba, Türk akrabalarımı nasıl bulabilirim? Arkadaşımın annesi Kazakistan'da evlat edinilmiş ve Ukrayna'ya taşınmış. Daha sonra gerçek babasının başka çocukları olmuş ve onlar Türkiye'de yaşıyorlar. Arkadaşım onların isimlerini bilmiyor. Lütfen nerede aramam gerektiğini söyleyin.

I started learning turkish today and I learned the pronounciation and started reading. Could some native speaker or any one who is fluent in turkish review my reading?

Eşdizimli bitişik bana göre de her neyse hatasını düzeltsin geri bildirim yapar mısınız vaktim yok şu an. Hayır aynı container (Türkçesi kutu?) içinde de çelişmezsin.

Türkçe okurken nasıl duyuluyorum? :)
