i am learning turkish on my own, and it is not that easy. i am learning slowly using grammar books, but one day i realized that i cannot understand when i listen to turkish people talking because i am not used to their slang/pronounciation and so on. so i decided to close my books and just watch movies and TV shows in turkish so i can get used to listening to the language.

i found this movies - with full english subtitles in youtube, and i think it is a great help. of course, i must watch more and more movies to understand. i also like this kind of independent movies compared to famous ones...

it is a really, lovely beautiful story....its one of thebest movies i have ever watched.....hope you guys enjoy it to..

Thanks for sharing what you have found, haniagree.

I have seen it recently as a problem of speed. You may be able to understand and analyse words and sentences when you have all the time you need but in the middle of a conversation there is hardly any time for thinking. You will lose it and be left behind. That is why it is not enough to be able to make correct forms, you also have to learn how to think fast. Fortunately there are many ways of practicing this.

i used movies and subtitles to learn english. this method may be used for any language.

because written and spoken english is not same, i used to watch english movies with english subtitles...

but you should carefully select your movies to avoid violance and sex scenes in some movies.

thank you abla, yes, i agree speed is the problem. do you know how i can learn to understand conversations better? i think if i learn by speaking it would make my brain work faster, but i notice that i am quite an introvert, i like reading more than speaking... i notice those who speak more (but with less knowledge than me) tend to be better at language learning...

ikicihan, other than violent sex, i also want to avoid some stupid movies, i remember  watching this teenager turkish movie that was quite bad... (i forgot the title) .. i am looking for good movies that is worth my time and i can learn turkish while watching.
