Week 3
As we are well into our third week of learning the Turkish language, I am confident of my mastery of the Turkish alphabet. I found the alphabet to be very similar to English with a few exceptions. Also, learning how to pronounce the letters is extremely helpful with properly pronouncing different words. I believe that the most challenging part about learning Turkish at the moment is speaking. The words sound very different from English and Spanish so I find myself always second guessing how to say certain words. We also have expanded our vocabulary for greetings, so instead of just knowing how to say "mehaba" I learned how to say good morning "gunaydin," good evening "iyi aksamlar,"good days "iyi gunler" and good night "iyi geceler". Also simple fun phrases like We are Spiders "We orumcegiz" are interesting to learn and I am able to use it with my friends at school. I am looking forward to expanding my vocabulary but also learning grammatical rules so that I can start form sentences in Turkish.
