Thank you, Umut_Umut. Really great answer.
I generally watch films in Azeri televisions and sometimes i watch the news. Thats quite easy for a Turkey Turk to understand Azeri Turkish and its also easy for us to understand when we read an Azeri text since our alphabet is almost same. For sure there are some words that we dont use and they use. But you can understand the meanings of these words when they use them in a sentence.
Some examples ;
Ben bugün okula gidiyorum. --- Mən bu gün məktəbə gedirəm. (we mostly use "okul" but we all know what "mektep" means.
Dün annemle(anamla) çarşıya gittik. --- Dünən anamla bazara getdik. ( çarşı and bazar[pazar] are equivalent words)
Bugüne kadar yüz kitap okudum. --- Bu günə qədər yüz kitab oxudum. (just pronunciation difference)
Haberleri izledin mi? ---- Xəbərləri izlədinmi? ( X : kh ) (no difference)
Akşam seninle sinemaya gidelim mi? --- Axşam səninlə kinoya gedəkmi? (sinema and kino both are foreign origin words )
Orada çok güzel giysiler satılırmış --- Orada çox gözəl geyimlər satılırmış (no difference )
Saat üç olmuş, yemek yemeyecek misin? ---- Saat üç olmuş, yemək yeməyəcəksənmi?
Türkiye ve Azerbaycan kardeştir. ----- Türkiyə və Azərbaycan qardaşdır. ( )
Niye benimle konuşmuyorsun? ---- Niyə mənimlə danışmırsan? ( to speak : konuşmak (turkey turkish) // to speak : danışmaq (azeri turkish) // danışmak : to consult (in turkey turkish) but its still understandable
Türk dillerinin hepsi çok güzeldir. ---- Türk dillərinin hamısı çox gözəldir. ( hepsi = hamısı ) ( actually these are same words , in Uyghur Turkish its "hemmisi" and in Turkmen Turkish its "hemmesi" etc)
Sanırım bu kadar cümle yeterli olur. ---- Sanaram bu qədər cümlə kafi olar. ( kafi = yeterli // we still use kafi , its an arabic origin word. But we write it like that --> kâfi )(Sanırım bu kadar cümle kâfi olur --> this is ok too)

I can understand Azeri Turkish generally; except some points but I can say that there is no importance whether you understand Azeri Turkish or not when you listen their magical musics and songs...
thx

I have aquestion conserning Turkish and Azeri languages which seem to have so much in common. I wonder if Turks can easily understand Azeris and vice versa.
(Am I in the right forum? Sorry, if I am not)
Yes, they can

I agree with pretty much everything said in this thread... Here are a few of my thoughts... Turkish (Türkçe) and Azeri (Azerice or Azeri Türkçesi) are basically the same language but different dialects. Their mutual intelligibility is fairly high, especially in the areas closer to Azerbaycan. However, Some people may still have a hard time understanding Azeri, especially due to the differences in vocabulary and accent. But even those people will start to pick up the Azeri dialect pretty quickly after being exposed to Azeri for a few weeks. As a fluent speaker of English, and partially Arabic, it´s fairly easy for me to spot the vocabulary differences in Azeri, especially due to Persian and Russian influence, although an average person will have a harder time. My mother, for example, never had a problem with the grammar, and she instantly connected with the language since it doesn´t sound to her any different from another Turkish dialect although she had a tough time understanding the vocabulary and the details of the conversation. She has never gone through the formal linguistic education that I´d gone through, so I had to kind of train her for a few days. But once she got this through, she was much more aware of the similarities, and were already coping with 50% of the nuisances. In some sense, Azeri Turkish is more authentic than Turkish of Turkey... For example, the "accusative" of "sen" is "sana" in Modern Turkish, while it is "sene" in Azeri, which is technically the correct one. There are several uses in grammar, with the influence under Istanbul Turkish that changed, which I´d argue not so authentic, but sounds and looks better after all. In my humble opinion, All Turkic Languages are technical marvels, and it is an invaluable joy to learn and teach them!

It is really good to read such a post. Thank you for it.
After you mentioned the authentic form of ben bana / men mene thing, i have checked 18 dialects and as you see in the table given below, out of 18 dialects, just 4 dialects use -e and 14 dialects use -a suffix. I think this is because the suffix we use.(-e / -a) What do you think about it?
