can anyone recommend any helpful books to learn turkish grammer? ive read 'teach yourself turkish'(which is a great book btw, it has great exercises to do) and 'learn turkish in 3 months'(which was good but very 'blocky' texts and kinda hard to read).
has anyone read any other useful books, because i am determined to master this language!

I had 'Teach Yourself Turksih' as a Christmas Present. I am finding it very good. The exercises are a great help. Is there a follow on book to it?
Did you both have a good understanding afer reading this book? I know a lot of Tükçe words already, It's just learning to put them all together now.

yeah i had quite a good understanding after reading this book, i must admit when i read chapters in 'learn turkish in 3 months', i didnt manage to take it all in so didnt really learn, yet when i read chapters in 'teach yourself turkish' it seemed to sink in, i think the exercises help a lot as well as the dialogues. unfortunatly i had to rush through this book as i borrowed it from my boyfriends cousin, but i think most of it sunk in!

There are two different "Teach Yourself Turkish" books. One by G L Lewis which would probably be difficult to obtain now and the later one by Asuman and David Pollard.

Ohh this is great ! And i think those Pandora.be sites are very helpful.
I tried to post a new thread (not about this) but it doesn't appear on this site (at least, not at my pc).
Could someone maybe take a look at this threat Dinner-invitation post and reply for me (if you can help me at least ) because it doesnt seem to work here.
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know good childrensbooks to read and enlarge your knowledge of turkish language? It's the basics we all start with, just like kids, so starting with 'their books' is a good way to learn!

BBC's "Get by in Turkish" is quite good for a beginner.It has cassettes as well.There is also Teach Yourself Beginners Turkish by Asuman Pollard with CD.
