hmmm... so by not knowing at least three languages,(i'm not fluent besides my mother tongue and english, which means i am short by one language) i guess i'm not entitled to learn turkish. then if i can't learn turkish, then how can i ever be considered as a cultured person? this is just so sad for me and for other people who want to learn the language, but can't because we don't know at least 3 languages. and i guess that makes as people who are not cultured.

I would hazard a guess that most of the British who use this site are not fluent in anything but English - the exceptions being those British citizens whose mother tongue is not English! By this reckoning, we should form a new TC gang - the (Very) Uncultured Club

well, whether i like it or not, i guess i am part of that club, and so do the others who are not good at turkish, or not know at least 3 languages. even though i would like to think that i'm cultured, it has come to my attention that apparently, am not.

Knowing 3 lang= a cultured pers. Well that is not a hard and fast rule. One may be 'potentially' on the way to being cultured, would be more appropriate. Knowing Turkish is not necessary to become a cultured person, but it helps on this site. Oh, and one does not have to be cultured to begin learning Turkish.

IMHO even those whose mother tongue is English appear incapable of stringing a few simple sentences together without making awful grammatical, spelling and punctuation mistakes. We all make typos but really, some people need to learn their own language first.
