This has got two main reasons actually:

1) Syntax: Although Turkish language has got a current syntax, we change the places of words for more stress.

Niye eve gittin?

Eve niye gittin?

Niye gittin eve?

2) Because of every word has got a meaning alone itself, it is very important to understand what does each word want to say and what they are going to mean when they come together.

Gelmeyeceğini bildiğim için bir şey demedim.

Gelmeyeceğini: That you aren´t going to come.

Bildiğim: That I know

İçin: For

Bildiğim için: Because of I know.

Bir şey: Something

Demedim: I didn´t say.

As you see, by only one word, we can express what a sentence want to say.

Listening music by following its lyrics text is very useful for a learner. In Turkish, because of words can take different places in sentences, you may hear very different sounds. Listening Turkish music will help you to see this difference. As first step, listen the song without looking at lyrics and then listen it by following the lyrics, this will help your brain to detect the words easier.

For a while, I have been considering to write the speech texts of some parts of some famous movie series that you can watch by Internet. (TV Series) I believe that watching movie series and following the speech text are going to be very useful together but becuase of lackness of time, I still couldn´t start to do it. But as soon as possible, I´m going to start to do it for a better help to learners.

Watch and read the news in www.trt.net.tr which is the official channel of Türkiye. They generally put the texts and videos of news at same time, so you can both watch and follow the text. This website´s Turkish is also pretty simple and easy to understand.

thx

By continuing to listen to Turkish television and Turkish radio and songs!   Just keep listening and with time it will get easier.  Better still, watch the ´pembe diziler´ on line on a site like ShowTV. That way you can stop and rewind and listen again and again until you understand better.

 çok teşkkürlar turkish corbe for your advices

Does this mean "Because of something I didn´t say, I know you aren´t going to come"?

I´m still having a lot of trouble constructing sentences from English to Turkish.
