My mother language is spanish, and I find turkish sounds very different.

It´s real that, in most of the cases, turkish is fonetical like spanish, but I find

differences in the pronunciation: for example if we talk about the vowels, it´s not the same "ben" than "tepe", or ´dağ´ than "Salih". I percieve that in general, turkish vowels sound "in the back" of the throat, like more gutural.

The "r" also sounds different depending the case. For example: the r in "var" sounds more like sh, but in "olurum" it´s a bit stronger. And if I listen "ne var", to my ear sounds like "ne war?".

There are more sound files here:

Maybe they are learning faster because turkish language is like a child´ s language.

This is not because of Turkish is a child language. I read that article and it says because of every word has a meaning alone itself in this language, children can learn it better.

What does it mean?

 Maybe that it has a logical and regular gramatical structure. 

I guess it means even children can speak it easily.
