Athens Turkish Lessons

Turkish grammar and sentence structures as well as vocabulary completely different from Indo-European languages like English and Farsi or Semitic languages like Arabic and Hebrew and indeed from many other languages.

Turkish has some unique characteristics, like its vowel harmony and the strong presence of agglutination; there are also no articles, genders, declensions or noun classes in Turkish. The word order of the language is flexible, but the basic and most common order is subject–object–verb. Turkish has a strong T–V distinction and usage of honorifics. While these may seem strange at first, you’ll be surprised how quickly the new rules become practical and natural when you’re learning Turkish!
