Linguistics continues to begin!









This is the start of the second day for linguistics. Yesterday, Turkish is such a hard concept and

language to encounter in our daily lives. In fact, the structure and the order of the Turkish is

different from our languages. Today, we try to find any formula or pattern in Turkish to better

understand Turkish. Today morning, we focused on the pattern of the Turkish numbers because

numbers are the basic and the most important concept in every countries. Thus, we found out

that the numbers higher than 100 always follow the same rule like other numbers. However, as

English does, 10 digits numbers have their own unique names.


We discovered that the order of a Turkish sentence goes like subject, object and verb, which is

different from most languages. Besides, Turkish seems to be a big fan of suffixes that they

express tense, plurality, negation and even pronouns in the suffixes. Although the pronunciation

is little weird, we are trying to find the phonetic pronunciation and expression of Turkish words.

we are going to investigate further about pronouns and the vowels of suffixes. And we are going

to build our own turkey sandwich. It will be such an interesting day tomorrow.
