It is a silent letter, that lengthens the vowel sound before it.
e.g. yağ (oil) you say as YAA, i.e. don't pronounce the ğ, but make the a longer.

Don't worry about the pronounce of "Ğ" so much. It won't change your world at all. I do pronounce it perfectly, but see who I am - a bastard, an asshole, a sinful, a disgust creature.

The 'ğ' is a glottal stop, an unvoiced closing of the back of the mouth. It is not a formal sound in English but you hear it fairly often in British speech and certain American groups. It seems to me to be becoming more common in American speech, where more and more people use it to replace the 't' (a dental stop) in some words.
The best example I know of in English is a Cockney pronunciation of 'bottle', which comes out something like 'boh-ul' with a little catch where the 't' sound should be.
