10 Turkish Expressions You MUST Know When Learning Turkish! 😲

These 10 daily Turkish expressions are being used all the time by Turks and definitely sound super weird to foreigners. Since the Turkish culture is very different in comparison to most European cultures, the Turkish language itself also shows a lot of differences and approaches. One might say Turkish is a warmer and more welcoming language. Looking at these phrases, you will definitely realize that most of them don’t make much sense in English. That’s why we have to distinguish the language culture from the very beginning if we want to try to learn Turkish.
When posting videos about Turkish I will always put emphasis on how to learn it especially taking the language culture into account.
If you want to learn Turkish and understand the Turkish language and its logic, you definitely need to watch this video till the end.
A lot of people around the world have been wanting to learn Turkish because of Turkish TV series.
On my channel I am explaining the key elements of the structure of Turkish, how it is used and what the main similarities and differences between Turkish and English (and other European languages) are. If you are a beginner and want to start learning English and don't know where to start, I'll show how to learn Turkish fast by firstly understanding the language culture and structure. Since Turkish is an agglutinative language, people struggle thinking in Turkish and therefore might learn the grammar because it is rather easy but the usage in everyday conversation can be quite different.
You can watch this video with both English and Turkish subtitles!
I hope you enjoy it. :)

Before I went to Turkey I took some time to learn simple phrases like good morning, thank you very much, good night, etc . I did it through internet with Turkish audio so I could learn how to pronounce the words correctly. I memorized some 30 simple sentences and words. When I reached Turkey I realized how good it was that I did that. In our group of tourists I became the official “translator”. Besides, I was amazed to see how Turkish people were glad and friendlier when I addressed them in their language. I loved that country and hope to take time to really learn more, as I plan to go back there.

Turkish is such a lyrical sounding language. It's beautiful! Something I think I've figured out from watching a Turkish vet here on KZbin, is that you often use the word "yes" the way we use "ok" in English. I was confused at first because I learned that "yes" is "evet", and "ok" is "tamam", but this vet very frequently says "evet" in a place where we'd say something like "Okay.... let's do this." It's a really interesting language, but hard to learn!

I'm really enjoying your videos. My family is from Azerbaijan, but escaped to Iran during Stalin's time. Though my parents' mother tongue was Azeri Turkish, we spoke farsi at home (like most immigrant kids) and Azeri Turkish with my grandparents. It's interesting that so many of these same expressions, including the mistakes, also happen in Farsi. We use the same expression, Elina sağlık in Farsi all the time: "Dastet dard nakone", or may your hand not ache, as an expression of thanks when someone cooks for you or does something nice for you. And all my life, I heard people say, "Sa'atte Hammam" when someone took a bath or shower, which literally means "Clock or time of bath." I didn't realize till this video that they were supposed to say Salamate Hammam (Salamat means health). So in two different languages, people make the exact same mistake with the exact same result!

Awesome video! You did a great job, Resh! As for “Cone”, the word “Kolah” in Persian language means hat. It might be that in old times, languages intermingled together as nations did, and Turks also called their hats the same with a minor difference in pronunciation: “Külah”. Since Turkish hats in ancient times were conical (Google Ottoman hat) the word Külah was gradually used to describe the shape of other conical objects. In time, fashion evolved and Turks stopped wearing conical hats, but, the word Külah remained in the language. So, that sentence literally means: Talk to my hat! That’s my guess, anyway.

I completely agree with you about how awesome Turkish people are! I am about to come to Turkey for several months. I am choosing to stay during the healing process in order to truly enjoy the beautiful country and people. I was previously married to a Turkish man and have spent plenty summers there. This upcoming journey is about really exploring whether or not I can live there and where might I want to live.

Awesome! I haven't finished the vid, but already a few comparisons come up. - "Lan" is exactly like "weon" in chilean Spanish, or probably "buey" in mexican Spanish... a very informal emphasis-giving word that can be added everywhere to set an extremely informal tone to a communication (and obviously only to use with friends or when you are too mad to maintain respectful composure in the street). There's a "cool" or comedic element to it as well, like street-talking slang (and also, bonus points, weon in chilean can even be used as a verb 😅) - Kolay Gelsin definitely sounds like the Spanish "que te sea leve", literally "may it be light for you" as in wishing that your effort isn't too straining. But we don't really have a bantering response to it - French seems to also have most of Turkish vowel sounds (like the unusual ü) - proverbial-talking is sort of very present in Spanish as well (probably through the muslim influence during Al Andalus times) - french people also use the "tsk" sound to disapprove, also to either emphasize a no or to discreetly and quickly express disapproval (its not too polite, but we do it a lot... can't help complaining 😂)

We use "vala" in Serbian too, more or less with the same meaning. We took it from you guys, of course, with many other words :) When you told about the "rude" reply to Kolay gelsin, I thought of a similar meaning of a different expression in Serbian, namely - someone says to me, oh, you have such a nice brother! I reply, impliying that my brother is not as nice as he seems: "If it's so, then take him home!" Of course, only among friends and close aquaintances. We also have the ts,ts,ts sound for no :) but it also can mean dissaproval. Your videos are very interesting, you explain well, I subscribed not long ago. (I'm learning Turkish just because I like it, but it's pretty difficult for me).

[@bilge6486]

yeah the ts ts can be used as dissaproval too! usually they use that sound 3 or more times to give them impression

Resat, the reason why so many people want to learn Turkish is mainly because of Turkish series and all the beautiful actresses and handsome actors that we follow in those series. Especially gorgeous Sükrü Özyildiz, his fans never have enough of him. Watching those series, made us discover a fantastic country, we all want to go and visit, therefore speaking your language would be an asset. A group of 12 of us, all Sükrü's fans, are coming to your country beginning of October.

I have quite a reasonable knowledge of Turkish, I guess B2 and I particularly love your explanation of "kolay gelsin". Some Turkish friends of mine living in the Netherlands who are good at Dutch, kind of "miss"the expression "kolay gelsin". A Turkish guy often feels like saying the Dutch word for "good luck" )(succes in Dutch ) two his neighbout who is washing the car or cutting the lawn but this is only used when he has a complicated job. A conversation between two Dutch neighbours would be something like - Good morning Piet, are you gardening? (sounds stupid as the other sees he is actually gardening but is just to show interest) - Yes as you see Jan, such things have to be done as you know Only when Piet is in a bad mood or feels like joking he will answer to the gardening question sarcastically : No, I am making bread, okay??!! (i.e. don't use unnecessary questions) But the good luck only will appear for a more complex job. Let 's say the lawn machine doesn't work well and he asks some oil from his neigbour, the neigbour will give it to him and say "succes!"
