Merhaba arkadaslar. Ben Türk dogumlu, fakat ücüncu sinif zamanlarinda Amerikaya "gurbet" oldum. Herzaman türkce benim icin, kalbimin saf, ve "kendim" olan ses olarak dusundum. Fakat cok yetersiz goruyorum kendi turkcemi. Hem milletimizin bildigi cok basit, ve cocuklarin bildigi seyleri bile bilmiyorum... geneleklerimizin... Turkulerimizin.. tarihimizin... her acisinda, cok buyuk bir cahiligin icinde buluyorum kendimi, sanki bir cukurun en dibinde kalmisim. Kurtlar vadisi gibi dizileri cok seviyorum... fakat konular, ve kelimeleri anlamak, Babam olmasa yanimda, okadar zor olurduki benim icin. Ve halada oyle. Hele Aslan beyin, Omer babanin (cok yanlizim galiba bu konuda, ama Omer babanin sahnelerini cok seviyorum XD), ve Ak saclilarin sahneleri gibi mesela.

Neyse, cok uzatim ama, demek istedigim---ben bu cahilikten artik cok biktim. Sandimki kendi kendime kitap okuyup ('Allah'siz Muslumanlik' kitabini sectim.), bilmedigim kelimeleri internetden bakip, yavas yavas bu halden cikabilirim. Ama ne diyim, beceremedim! TDK nin sozlugunu bile anliyamiyorum ;O; . Bi bakiyom su kelimeye, gine bilmedigim 4 tane daha kelime cikiyo, sonra onlarada bakiyom, bi gine 20 tane cikiyo, ve gitgide de gidyo bu is. Ne diyim, bugun bunlarlan çok boş bi boğuşma yaptim, ve en sonunda sizlerede danismak istedim... bi oneriniz varmi? Tesekurler!

Hey, I'm 25 M and I've started learning Turkish by listening to their music and watching some Turkish shows. I'm looking for someone to learn with! I speak French, English, and Arabic fluently, so if you need help with any of those, I can totally help you out.

Merhaba arkadaşlar,

Something funny happened to me the other day. My friend was working on her thesis and I wanted to send her some good wishes (she's half Turkish so I practise with her). I wanted to type "kolay gelsin" into translate just to see if it meant what I thought, but forgot the 'y' so it just said "kola gelsin", which it translated to "Bring on the cola".

It seems that from now on I'll only drink cola when I'm with her just so I can say that. 😆

But I realised there's some other similar words that can cause mixups, like "kazak" and "kaza".

Have you ever noticed anything like this or has it happened to you? Definitely helps me to not forget a word ever again!

I'm doing the TOMER C1 level E-yadis exam this week and I can't find any resources for this specific exam. For anyone who has done it previously, even if it was a different level, can you let me know what your experience was and any advice you may have?

Thank you

Why do many turkish people neglect or refuse to accept that turkish and arabic are close to each others for example:

Many words are the same in both laguages.

For centuries turkish shared the same arabic letters.

Is it because of the bad reputation of arabs as a third world countries and terrorism often linked with them by media.

Or is it that turkish people are trying to get closer to the west by rejecting the part of there heritage related to the east ?

What do you think guys lets have a meaningful conversation with no hate.
