Learning Journal #4 (SDLC 110 Turkish)

I think I met my learning goals a little bit. In my last post I noted how I would try to just continue what we are doing. I have memorized nationalities and countries that we were taught. I also have mastered basic introductory conversation.

There are some challenges that I am facing with numbers, but we have played a few different games to help that. I think it's actually a lot more simple than I think and reminds me of an even easier version of numbers in Chinese in a way. Chinese is very unique in that it counts the places and goes by tens, so twenty-five is literally "two ten five". Turkish has words for tens up to one hundred so all you say for twenty-five is "twenty five" which I guess is more similar to English than Chinese for now.
