# Turkish phrasebook

Turkish (Türkçe) is the most widely-spoken of the Turkic languages and is the official language of the Republic of Turkey and the co-official language of Cyprus but is only spoken and useful in Turkish speaking Northern Cyprus. It is also a recognized minority language in Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Romania. Its closest living relatives are other Turkic languages, which are spoken in southwestern, central and northern Asia; and to a lesser degree in southeastern Europe (the Balkans). Outside of Turkey itself, knowledge of Turkish is helpful in several neighbouring countries particularly in the Balkan countries of Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Bulgaria where there are significant Turkish communities, and to a lesser extent in Azerbaijan, where it is to an extent mutually intelligible with Azerbaijani. It is also spoken by a significant minority in Germany, which has a large Turkish immigrant community. While most of the Central Asian "stans" speak Turkic languages, the similarities between Kazakh and Turkish (for example) are only very rudimentary. Turkish is considered a difficult language for English speakers to learn and speak, due to its complicated, mathematical vowel-harmonied grammar.

## Grammar

Turkish grammar and sentence structures as well as vocabulary differ completely from Indo-European languages like English and Farsi and Semitic languages like Arabic and Hebrew and indeed from many other languages. There are no articles, genders, or declensions. Unlike many languages, Turkish forms words by a process known as "agglutination", where prefixes and suffixes are attached to words to mark different parts of speech and so on. Thus, an English phrase such as "I am an Australian" is rendered in Turkish with the one word "Avustralyalıyım - Avustralya-lı-y-ım" (Australia-n-I'm). Turkish uses postpositions instead of prepositions. Thus, an English phrase such as "in Turkey" is rendered in Turkish as "Türkiye'de - Türkiye-de" (Turkey - in).
In Turkish there are two ways of addressing people - informal and polite, like in German, French or Russian. Turkish has two "you" verb forms which denote the relationship the speaker has to someone else. For formal address the plural form of second person "siz" should be used, while for informal address the singular form of the second person "sen" is used.

## Pronunciation guide

Turkish pronunciation looks daunting to non-native speakers, as many of the words are very long and look like tongue-twisters. With a bit of practice, however, it becomes much easier. The spelling of Turkish is phonetic, so once knowing the pronunciation of each letter the reading should not be a problem, since all words are pronounced exactly how they are written. However Turkish has some vowel sounds that are not known in many other languages, so they can be hard to learn.

### Vowels

The Turkish vowels are
* A - a short sound, as in the English father
* E - a short sound, as in the English pet
* İ - the sound in the English meet and at the beginning of İstanbul (ees-tan-bul)
* I - the short "schwa" vowel. This vowel exists in English although there is no specific letter for it. It is the 'i' in pencil and the 'e' in taken.
* O - as in the English order
* Ö - pronounced as in German, a blend of "o" and "e", with lips rounded.
* U - short as in the English put
* Ü - pronounced as in German, make a sound like "ee", but round your lips like you are going to say "oo"
Remember that, in lower case, the two letters İ and I look different as well. The lower case form of İ is i, while the lower case form of I is ı.

### Consonants

* B - as in bed
* C - equivalent to J, as in the English jump.
* Ç - the "ch" sound in the English chapel
* D - as in drum
* F - as in far
* G - as in girl
* Ğ - a silent letter which serves to lengthen the previous vowel at the end of a word or between identical vowels, a very slight form of y (with the tongue in a lower position) elsewhere
* H - as in hello
* J - the soft (or "French") G sound in words such as visage and menagerie.
* K - as in king
* L - as in love
* M - as in man
* N - as in new
* P - as in print
* R - a tricky consonant in Turkish, most often rolled very lightly
* S - as in snake
* Ş - the "sh" sound in the English shake
* T - as in take
* V - roughly the mid-point between the "v" in very and the "w" in was
* Y - as in yet
* Z - as in zoo
