Well I do GCSE French and German and I'm not very good at them, so I think trying to learn turkish would just about kill me! :)

Turkish is hard but when you understand the word sequences and the sentence structure it's easier to understand :)

Hello Curtis my name is heather i am 48 and i have been learning turkish for the past 2 years. I can get by in conversation and i now know how to construct sentences etc. it is a beautiful language, very difficult but when you get to the point where you can communicate with the turkish people its a fantastic feeling. I will continue to learn and maybe one day i will be fluent. Its well worth the effort and the rewards are worth it. I love the language.
