Quoting Ayla:
I heard somewhere that "I" is explained like the "o" in Washington or the second "o" in London.
Or:
Like the wovel of the suffix "tion" (connection, reaction, motivation etc.)
&&
just remembered:
"Ö" as the "i" in "dirty", "sir", "girl"
or the first "e" in "perfect" |
That's cute Ayla.
Thanks for your advise though.
Yeah, indeed we sound Washington as vaşingtın and maybe London as landın...
Or any -tion or -sion as -şın.
Dirty as dörti
sir as sör
girl as görl.
cute as küyut etc... 
Lack of those those sounds in Turkish make people sound as above. Especially, if they have never met a native speaker.
I used to sound like that when I was in middle school where we didn't have any native teacher.
I hope I don't sound that bad anymore

I have some soundfiles with pronouncination (from learning books)
One contains pronouncination and examples of c, ç, ğ, ı, ö, ü and v
Another with examples of words, clearly pronounced.
And yet another with pronouncination of all letters.
If you want them send me a pm with your email address

I am using Turkish pop music for improve my turkish pronounce, it is very useful. Especially when you listen the song a very few times. I am recommending the song KIRMIZI by Hande Yener for ı training.
