[blogtvtrollbrain]

ahahahaha bu ne lan

[shanedawson1231fan]

@martinharrell your pronouncing and saying every thing correct but i am turkish and when you listen to it you can hear you exaggerating some of the letters. you are ment to pronounce every single letter but there is no emphasis needed. other than that it was really awesome!!

[bebekafa]

i can understand what you are saying clearly but also i can understand that it is not your native language in your first word %100 :) keep it going m8 ! greetings from istanbul...

oh btw, blue shirts are generally good yes ;)

[Meltemfb48]

ahahahahah koptum yaa

[semprefidelis76]

I think you need to speak a little more, how to say, "monotonous". Turkish does not have too much high and low pitches. Like in every language, how you "deliver" the words is what makes the difference. Try to lose the high/low pitches. Speak like you are bored. p.s: And the monotonuity or the lack of pitches is what would be difficult when a Turkish is learning a language such as English.

[MeHMaTRiX]

well done bro, you are awesome... i'm from turkiye too and congratulations...

[reddeads]

are you gonna pay ?

[ozulucan]

congratulations, u're speaking very well

[chayinva]

my hubby said u pretty ok..."he turkish" good luck

[TheDisneyManips]

ahahah you speak turkish very well!! bravo from turkey (:

[sucukekmekk]

ahaha i love the way you say " taabbiii" :)) I appreciate, and keep trying. Your Turkish sounds really good, but it needs to be backed up with more practice of course :). Congratulations! :)

[fragilejem123]

Actually, you're doing great! My only criticizm is about your K's. They sound more like a G, so you can work on that. But this is just a detail. Yoúr general pronunciation, syllables and where you place the sentences' stress is excellent. Turkish is a really hard language.

[ylkerkulac]

al al nasıl ödüycen bilmiyorum :D

[psychoplot]

Hey man "tebrikler!" i like ur pronounciation, all u need is improve audio emphasis. if u fix it, ppl can think its ur main language hehe

[remedy78]

reaaaly good :) i liked your turkish

[kendisinsan]

Yeşil etek ve yeşil elbiseyi sen mi giyeceksin? Şaka şaka :) I appreciate your effort speaking, nice job!

[xlcxlc1]

Very good

[b3yonc3knowles]

I'm Turkish and honestly you sound quite good! Your Turkish is definitely better than the Turkish accent of others. And I think that your Turkish sounds cute!

[kritikjones]

Ne hürrem, ne ivana sert, ne karolin, ne endipol, ne wilco

[Wolfeywolf16]

wtf! ur good buddy

[king36er]

Uff awesome, your turkish is very well almost no accent keep up

[superbetyl]

hehe, i laughed not because you're speaking in a wrong way but because it sounds really funny. anyway it really enables you to live in turkey if you can speak like that. :) good job

[milad19]

you are really good bro.

[crazydoll800]

wow you're very good, but you've to practise it more x) keep going ! :)

[LocationDelirium]

Drunken Russian ftw

[mreuphrates]

Your accent is very good.You can communicate with any turk.

[ErkanTR16]

You Can Read Pretty Good, You Seem To be Having Your Accent From Your Country But Try Listening To Turkish Music And Listen To Turkish New It Can Help You

[emir90]

you sound like a russian hooker lost in antalya

[heryerdeyim]

you are awesome dude.... trust me.

[fukinlittledots]

good job, congratulations on your hard work.

i may only say one thing about your accent, or the way you speak/read; try to pronounce the words briefly (sorry if i'm picking false words). I mean when you are saying ''güzel'', try to not to say it ''güzeel''. You know, it's only one ''e''.

Don't take me seriously though; i'm not offending your accent; it is just one of the biggest problems when someone tries o learn Turkish :)

[harrage]

the other stuff is the pronouncing of close vovels as open ones. let me explain;

when you say ''istiyorum'' there have to be an 'O' vovel as been in ''dog'' (unless you are a yorker:):). i mean , in turkish every vovel have just one sound. and except the exceptions , none vovel contains double voice at the same time. you should pronounce the ''o'' vovel as right as the ''o'' in the ''fog''.

good luck:)

[harrage]

applause:)

i see there are lot of comments and hint for you. let me add some;

you have to notice on ''r''s more. the basic principle of turkish accent is ''r'' sound. if you have been met with a turkish guy who try to speak english with his native turkish accent , you would notice that he pronounce the ''car'' as ''carr''. a solid and stressed ''r'' have to occur.

press your tongue to just back of your palate and try to have o continious 'r'. and turkish news channels have to be your priority.

[soccergirlz850]

Oh and if u listen to Turkish music u will improve like rafet el roman

[soccergirlz850]

It's pretty good for an American but Turkish people would laugh at u if they heard

[xooxle6]

[luvaduvalicious]

Awwww =D. Am I the only one who thinks he actually sounds really cute speaking Turkish haha =D?

[0hanness]

@luvaduvalicious that's because you've probably never heard Turkish before :) :) watch something in Turkish by native speakers so that you can see the huge difference...

[luvaduvalicious]

@0hanness ...I am Turkish. And I still hold by my original convictions.

[enis020]

@luvaduvalicious yeah you are the only one

[KiryuuKeiko]

You're so good you just need a little bit more practice but i understood everything you said :D

[mustafa3447]

congratulations ! but get relax and try to accent ' r ' more.

[ephence]

That's great ! congratulations :)

[Mattichimaru]

its good, but your doing too much of an italian accent..Try a harsher or more russian sound into your accent... But yeah, great job :)

[honeythebunni]

i love your accent! very understandable

[cnorkun]

[TurkishGeneral]

[senizx]

Your Turkish is excellent! Keep practicing and you'll be fluent!

[TheShadow91]

The accent is funny ahha :D Buy We would still understand you ^^

[egeseatr35]

You will surely be understood.BUT, definitely people will understand you are not Turkish.

[dasgun]

well people will understand you:D

Atleast you don't say the american r because that would sound weird in turkish

[SxQueenful]

Haha your Turkisch is really cute,your Turkisch is very well mate.:p

[Goegoetje]

you reading good turkish, but not with a turkish accent. if you watch turkish tv etc, you can learn faster how to speak (:

[gozde345]

It is really good. I can understand you clearly. You pronounced everything quite well. Yes you do have an accent but it is normal, you don't have to speak like a Turkish. The most important thing is to be understood by others you do it perfectly..

[emilalipiev]

omg, Russians can pronounce Turkish really good..you have to hear that from west europeans, they cant pronounce at all

[byCEMD0GAN]

I am a Turkish , I appreciated your effort about learning Turkish but the thing is you still have very strong accent with your natieve language , but you r doing your best and l guess it will be much more better if you more listen to conversations .. How ?? Allright mate just try to listen to Turkish slow music to make your accent just like Turkish , you are doing fine mate doing fine .. Congratulations 

[emoxmasochist]

I'm Turkish. You sound good but try to feel it :)

[runafes]

[theworkshyturk]

@sercan192 That's not true - spies and me!

[Tarab35]

[Kseletia]

[fl233d0m]

güzel güzel, beğendim adamım :)

[traceurturk]

Hah. Your accent is soo cute. Good job. Keep it up ;)

[FOXDIEPATRIOT]

Good job :D....

[XxBozkurtkiz5oxX]

haha really nicee =) i could understand every word, good job

[pornpan96]

cok guzel konusuyosun lan...biraz azini ac yaragimin kafasi,,

[turkerefendy]

great!ottoman istanbul accent.compared to many turkish.

[keltos05]

good job :)

[sazji]

Not bad but you especially have to pay attention to your "ı", "u" "o" and "r". But I thınk you're working hard so you'll do it.

[luvjustinbieber4evax]

your very good i can understand you your clear but you do strech some letters a bit much :)

[wtfidascrappy]

not bad at all..need just a little practice.

[burakkk55]

Türkçeyi şivesiz konuşan birisi.bütün dilleri rahatlıkla düzgün birşekilde konuşabiir.

[AzerX]

accent guzel.. keep it up

[barishman]

You're certainly getting there mate, surely reading better than many natives I know could. Listen to the intonations and stress points a bit more in pronunciations and try and imitate them as the natives do and you're set.

[molodoychelovek]

It is pretty understandable but the problem is, the text you read does not make any sense in real life, real dialogs are way more different.

[editors35]

su bilgisayardaki sanal seslere benziyor :D

[Sameyorklal]

Not bad at all :)

[melkormgc]

You are pretty clear. In short conversations or sentences it could be that people do not notice you are not a native speaker. Since they might just think that's just the way you talk (since there are a lot of Turks who have their own way of talking unlike the Americans for example who speak in a more standard way depending on their subgroup). You also could pass as a second generation Turkish immigrant to Germany actually! Good job, I am sure it is quite tough!

[GangstaMB]

try and keep your tone constant. dont go high and low when pronouncing words :)

but we can still nderstand you well :)

[fxpanthera]

dude listen no one can speak turkish correctly but Turk's can speak any leanguage perfectly for example i can do any accent of any language cuz its so easy for me

[yerlibilgin]

@fxpanthera türkler yabancı dillerde her zaman dökülür. ne arapça ne ingilizce bırakın şimdi dürüst olun. İngilizce konuşan türklere bizim hoca turklish konuşuyor derdi. Dürüst olalım.

[tuanbloooom]

güzel

[raviolli182]

nice try dude but u should ease up on r's

[KARRAMBINO]

u want the truth? your pronounciation sucks.

sorry dude but i don`t wanna lie to u..

[fatsumnac]

hiç fena değil. :)

[Etlipuro]

sorry but you sound like gay man.

[mojalaska]

not bad ,but you have to work on "ı" "r" and "e"

lol meralodem is totally right..

i know in hungarian u have 2 "a" ,but we have 1 "a" and its always like your a'

u most roll "r" more,and "r" at the end is touching to the palate,be careful.

[ibrahimhalildere]

you read turkish very well. you didn't make any mistake. congrats...

[meralodem]

you should work on '' ı '' '' e'' and '' r ''

[Aliceyn]

Ochen xopowo drug. very nice you are even better than some turkish people

[mczr00]

are you russian ? .. you can make it better if u keep workin

[ankaralikuzu]

lmao

needs more work but your good :)

[berfush]

oh god it is really nice:D

[yoeskalatoryo]

good work mate!!! try focusing more on the sound of the letter "ı" ... it sounds like the second e in "alan"

it is the key for a good turkish accent!!

[SuperSilentium]

dude this is just cool :)

[KanadaTurk]

wicked :)))))))

its really cool

cheers

[fenERkut]

Oh shit, he's reading Turkish even better than some Turks:)

[IRunHipHopmuthafucka]

[sirketmirketanlamam]

[cemeds]

[mezzanine74]

[darkhorni]

"R"s in Turkish are soft.

[LOSGUERREROS619]

hahhahahaha very nice mate very nice

[Sephirothmmd]

the intonation is mostly horrible except the question adjunct "mi"... u gotta work on it man. it aint easy but it aint impossible... even turkish people who live in US lose their accent after like 10 years

[MrBordobereli]

Your accent is better than Turks.

[ancalimonungol]

[koraymelih]

[midifix]

[karakasIST]

[RaffaelloRossi]

quite clear accent. very easy to understand.

[cenquee]

gayet güzel , tebrikler.

[ibrozdemir]

you'r speaking quite good

but you are emphasizing "k" letters too much

and also you should work about stressing

[serjejunkie08]

haha you should work a lil bit more. but its good enough anyone in turkey can understand you.

[robahmet1]

u sound like a swedish person talkin turkish lol

[colosayko]

wonderful

[Ataturk2Day]

Nicht schlecht Martin, übe weiter!

Aber nicht nur einkaufen ;)

[sweetyorientalcat]

loool it sounds sooo cute

[kadymp]

good job, keep work on it

[RainstRom1]

he speaks like cypriot turks :)

[robbie8686]

Excellent!!!

[germanboy37]

Some constructive criticism:

If you use -misin to ask a question then you don't need intonation? Only Cypriot-Turkish has intonation when asking questions.

Stop reading Turkish as you would a European language. Turkish has a melody like Persian. In fact it is very similar to Persian in the way that it is spoken.

[onculkoparan]

i dont really get this. Whats the relationship between persian and turkish? :S .. well i wouldnt know how turkish sounds as its my mother tongue but this is first time i hear turkish and persian is alike.

[reverdyz]

keep up good work man , you are great :)

[newandnew]

Very clear, very understandable, and very good accent. You should emphasize the letter "r" a little more as in American accent.

[hessianmercenary]

Hey you did a good job!

But are you American?

This does not sound like the typical American acent - it is definitely a lighter accent. I would rather say you sound like a German speaking Turkish :-)

Keep up the good work!
