send me message

Hello, I have been trying to learn turkish for over a year now.  I am having turkish lessons and am finding it extremely difficult.  I spend a lot of time with turkish people but the dialect used in the area where I live is so different from the Istanbul turkish language taught to us.  Everybody speaks so quickly.  The teacher tells us to listen, but I do listen to all the endings of the words, but am finding to so difficult.

You are right about that... But the dialect differentiates in Turkish as it does in some other languages...For example, when an Australian talks to me, i just look him/her in the eye giving the impression of "What the heck are you talking about?"

For instance, we sometimes say the words like "yapiyorum, ediyorum" as "yapiyom, ediyom" , this is the result of fast speaking...

I bet it would be very difficult for a Turkish learner to understand the way Black Sea Region people speak Turkish...but as you mentioned, this is about dialect...

I have the same problem... but Turkish people also do I was proud of my limited knowledge of Turkish, but I couldn´t understand a single word of this old Eastern Turkish lady So I asked her son "What did your mom say to me?" He said "No idea, I don´t understand her half of the time. Her Turkish pronounciation isn´t that good"
