basic words in turkish

[MrSerlat]

@Theshoesaremine İf you want to learn Turkish, we can speak via msn or skype. I want to learn English & you want to learn Turkish This method can help each of us. We can learn from each other.

[0AnimaLibera0]

@noclassatall Mostly because it's easier to say that way, otherwise sounds funny and weird to me.

Oh and Turkish is a polite language, with time, you will fully understand why it changes, by ear. :)

beautiful language

[OverLord987]

abi is wrong, ağabey is right.

[kelRapunzel]

@OverLord987 abi is short form,not quite wrong

[fade123d]

it is Merhaba, with H

[fade123d]

Abla , Abi , these words of sign of Respect, if u have brother older than u,u do not call him name,u tell him Abi, ofc if u want to call his name u would,but with Abi,For example Mehmet (Abi),if u have a older sister than you,for example , Ece (Abla), usually we turkish ppl do not use the names into our family,Bigger Sister (ABLA) , bigger brother(abi),like i said this is a sign of respect. Amca(Uncle),Teyze(Aunt),Annean­ne(GrandMother),Dede(GrandFath­er),Kuzen(Cousin)

you didn't mention that "ata" is old turkish for "father".

[kelRapunzel]

@Sule452 ata means ancestor these days:)

[athenistan]

merhaba is pronounced "merHaba" or "meraba"?

[LearnTurkishChannel]

@athenistan i would say both:)) but, usually, the "H" in the middle is not pronounced, because it takes some effort to say that "H" all the time... we just quickly say "meraba":))

[athenistan]

@LearnTurkishChannel thank you very much for your important help

[LearnTurkishChannel]

@athenistan you're welcome:)

[geordiegee]

thank u for this ,xx

[kimmi90me]

how would you pronounce 'ocean'?  Like "day-neez"?

[LearnTurkishChannel]

@kimmi90me ocean---okyanus, sea---deniz, the letter "e" is different in turkish, you shall watch my "the letter e" video...

[PrincessMarina121]

at 0:41 the word "siz" ppl still use it?? i always use "sen"! it still means u right?

[LearnTurkishChannel]

@PrincessMarina121 people do still use "siz":) "sen" is singular, "siz" is plural..

[PrincessMarina121]

really i always thought "siz " was used for being polite to people who are older than you, like use it when talking to ur parents, grandparents, etc. well since i`m a Ahiska Turk we mostly use "sen" =)

[LearnTurkishChannel]

@PrincessMarina121 you're right:))) but, its used both for being polite and plural form:))

[PrincessMarina121]

yeah i guess=)

[PrincessMarina121]

u know turkish is a little complicated but i`m glad i`m a turk^-^

[lofaszt]

Anya --> Ana (mother)

Ő - O (He She It)

Ők - Onlar (the "lar-ler" is the hungarian "k" suffix)

Én - ben (i)

Enyém - Benim (mine)

Sok - Cok (many, lot, very) (the hungarian "s" is the same like turk "ş")

Very similar to hungarian!!

[mgoksoy]

Yes, linguists say Turkish, Hungarian and Finnish come from the same family of languages. So, we can be considered to be relatives.:)

[sstylish0]

very useful

is this true in turkish (çok yararlı)

but I dont know how do they say it?

Specialy (yararlı)

because I learned çok means very

Çok teşekkür ederim

[kibumlover1997]

cok means alot, take it from a person whos was born knowing turkish

[Booboo201999]

Abla is kind of like spanish

habla espanol?

[LearnTurkishChannel]

probably sounds like the same, but they definitely have different meanings

[Booboo201999]

Turkish have a lot of other languages in to it. like money pora i will always remember that becaouse someone i use to know use to tell me give me money in Serbain all the time.

Dee Me para "give me money"

[LearnTurkishChannel]

turks have ruled multinational empires for years, so its normal:)) but still, turkish also has lots of original old turkish words in it... we can still understand the other turkish groups living in central asia...

[ptmona]

I can see that, we use turkish words in Egypt as well, like Abla, Abi, Baba, Ana. I'm hoping i could learn more turkish, it's a wonderful language and culture.
