So why's this interest in nostratic?

Here are some interesting similarities

Turkish -- Finnish -- Farsi -- English
Ben/men -- mina -- men -- I, me
Sen -- sina -- tu -- thou, thee
O -- ol? -- u -- he/she

Actually I am an Estonian and I speak Estonian, Finnish, German, French, and English languages so if I spoke Turkish too I would be able to compare both the Indo-European, Uralic (Finno-Ugric) and Altaic (Turkish).

Good luck!
I am sure you will find Turkish very easy to learn.

Thanks! I am sure the grammar is easy, but the only thing I am afraid of is the vocabulary. As it was written on this page, Turkish vocabulary does not resemble that of any other European language. Although Estonian and Turkish are distantly related to one another, the relationship does not reflect in the vocabulary but the grammar.
Yet I hope I can do it! If I encounter any problems I will certainly ask you, aslan2. I suppose you are from Turkey?

They say that ordinary native speakers use 400 to 800 different words in their daily speeches. So when you have a reasonable amount of vocabulary, you should be OK. You should get more of it by time.

400-800 only? oh, then it won't be hard at all. by german language for example you need to know cirka 2000-3000 words in order to understand both everyday speech and books
