The Turkish language has not evolved to be read. It has evolved to speak. When you read sentences in Turkish, it can have more than one meaning. However, what meaning is meant by the situation is inferred. Because Turkish has evolved to speak practically according to the fast living conditions of nomadic shepherd warriors in ancient times. For this reason, it was tried to be spoken with as few words as possible. 1. The most used words have been removed from the language. For example The words "the" and "a/an", which are perhaps the most used in English, are not used in Turkish. 2. The words in English are in the form of suffixes in Turkish. So a single word can actually be a long sentence. 3. Suffixes and words can have more than one meaning even though they are spelled the same. Despite everything, Turkish is easily learned by living with Turks. In addition, since a sentence can have more than one meaning, it is a deep language in the literary sense.

Linguists' opinions on Turkish Grammar Prof. David Cuthell : “I know many foreign languages. Among these languages, Turkish is such a different language that it is as if a hundred high mathematics professors came together to create Turkish. A dozen words are produced from one root. Turkish is such a language that it is a language of emotion, thought, logic and philosophy in itself.” ------------------- Max Müller “Even reading a Turkish grammar is a real pleasure, even if he hasn’t had the slightest desire to speak and write Turkish. Those who hear the skillful style in the mods, the compliance with the rules that dominate all the shots, the transparency seen throughout the productions, the marvelous power of the human intelligence that shines in the language will not fail to be amazed. This is such a grammar that we can watch the inner formations of thought in it, just as we can watch the formation of honeycombs in a crystal… The grammatical rules of the Turkish language are so orderly and flawless that a committee of linguists, an academy, approves this language. It is possible to think that it is a language made with consciousness. ----------------------------- Prof. Dr. Johan Vandewalle;, now I have learned about 50 languages ​​. After learning languages ​​with very different systems, the language that I still admire the most, the language that I find most logical and mathematical is Turkish.” johan Vandewalle (The text is written by him. It is written by him in Turkish.) “…I think that a native Turkish speaker thinks in short sentences, and when speaking, he builds complex structures by connecting these short sentences in various ways. This "tendency to connect sentences" can be weak in some speakers, and strong in others, almost to the extent of a disease. The linguistic structures that emerged in this last situation reflect the superior possibilities of the human mind in the best way. Although I have studied many languages ​​belonging to different language groups, I can say that I have never come across a structure that fascinates me as much as complex sentence structures in Turkish. If you let me be a little sentimental, I sometimes say to myself, “I wish Chomsky had learned Turkish when he was younger too…”. I'm sure then modern linguistics would have been shaped according to Turkish, not English…” ------------------ *Receiving the Babylonian World Award, Belgium's Ghent University Center for Eastern Languages and Cultures, Dr. Johann Van De Walle explains why he is interested in Turkish today: “Turkish can be learned in a very short time. The rules in chess are logical, simple and few in number. Even a seven-year-old can learn to play chess. Despite this convenience, the person playing chess does not get bored throughout his life. The game possibilities are endless. It is a very magical feature that the same situation exists in the Turkish grammar system. Turkish grammar is a language that has a regular and unexceptional character almost as much as mathematics. -------------- Paul Roux: "Turkish is a mathematical language full of thought and intellect." *Moliere: "Turkish is language to be admired; you can express a great deal by a few words." *French Turcologist Jean Deny : "The Turkish language suggests that it was formed as a result of the consultation and discussion of an elite committee of scholars. Turkish verbs have such a peculiarity that they cannot be found in any of the Arian languages. This feature is the power to form new words with affixes”. Jean Deny *Herbert W. Duda:“Turkish, which expresses all thoughts and feelings in the most perfect way, has such a rich vocabulary that everyone admires this language and accepts it as the most perfect scientific language.'”. *Herbert Jansky: “Turkish language is an extremely rich and easy-to-understand, easy-to-learn scientific language in terms of vocabulary, phonetics, orthography, syntax and vocabulary.” page 257 in book (The Science of Language by Max Müller in 1861) It is a real pleasure to read a Turkish grammar, even though one may have no wish to acquire it practically. The ingenious manner in which the numerous grammatical forms are brought out, the regularity which pervades the system of declension and conjugation, the transparency and intelligibility of the whole structure, must strike all who have a sense of that wonderful power of the human mind which has displayed itself in language. Given so small a number of graphic and demonstrative roots as would hardly suffice to express the commonest wants of human beings, to produce an instrument that shall render the faintest shades of feeling and thought;-given a vague infinitive or a stern imperative, to derive from it such moods as an optative or subjunctive, and tenses as an aorist or paulo-post future;-given incoherent utterances, to arrange them into a system where all is uniform and regular, all combined and harmonious;-such is the work of the human mind which we see realized in “language.” But in most languages nothing of this early process remains visible. They stand before us like solid rocks, and the microscope of the philologist alone can reveal the remains of organic life with which they are built up. In the grammar of the Turkic languages, on the contrary, we have before us a language of perfectly transparent structure, and a grammar the inner workings of which we can study, as if watching the building of cells in a crystal bee-hive. An eminent orientalist remarked “we might imagine Turkish to be the result of the deliberations of some eminent society of learned men;” but no such society could have devised what the mind of man produced, left to itself in the steppes, and guided only by its innate laws, or by an instinctive power as wonderful as any within the realm of nature. *page 260 (264 in pdf). there is one feature so peculiar to the Turkish verb, that no analogy can be found in any of the Aryan languages-the power of producing new verbal bases by the mere addition of certain letters, which give to every verb a negative, or causative, or reflexive, or reciprocal meaning Sev-mek, for instance, as a simple root, means to love. By adding in, we obtain a reflexive verb, sev-in-mek, which means to love oneself, or rather, to rejoice, to be happy. This may now be conjugated through all moods and tenses, sevin being in every respect equal to a new root. By adding ish we form a reciprocal verb, sev-iş-mek, to love one another. To each of these three forms a causative sense may be imparted by the addition of the syllable dir. Thus, I. sev-mek, to love, becomes IV. sev-dir-mek, to cause to love. II. sev-in-mek, to rejoice, becomes V. sev-in-dir-mek, to cause to rejoice. --------------------- Linguists' opinions on Turkish Grammar Prof. David Cuthell : “I know many foreign languages. Among these languages, Turkish is such a different language that it is as if a hundred high mathematics professors came together to create Turkish. A dozen words are produced from one root. Turkish is such a language that it is a language of emotion, thought, logic and philosophy in itself.”

I'm a Bulgarian who has been learning Turkish for years and I can confirm that Turkish is extremely metaphorical. Often times you know the meaning of the words but have no idea what they express put together. It's like a secret code that only the chosen ones understand. 😅 It's one of the most fun, beautiful, poetic and tingly (it's perfect for asmr) languages. Plus it's full not only of poetic but also of fun expressions like: Abur cubur - junk food Ufak tefek - small, insignificant Allak bullak - topsy-turvy, all mixed up Şapur şupur - the sound that we make while eating or kissing Hıncahınç - packed, completely full Fısıl fısıl - whispering, in whispers

-"Tünaydın" is not "good night", it's "good afternoon". -I used personal names while I was practising my katakana. And for hiragana I used Japanese company names. It did work. -The dances here are not really that much Turkish, one is the Caucasian dances (which exist in northeastern Turkey indeed) and the other has Arabic language accompaniment. The thing about our culture, music and food is that we have learned from many from our nomadic days in Central Asian steppes to our recent position at the crossroads of different cultures. -Those village aunties were adorable. BTW, the grandma showing the whistling language speaks in a thick Black Sea region dialect. Still understandable.

Turkish has the most abundant resources out of the Turkic languages and the gateway to other Turkic languages. Turkish has easier recognition, as it uses the Latinate alphabet. Turkish has a lot of loanwords from French, Persian and Arabic, so some vocabulary transfer can happen to a certain degree. Turkish is logical and phonetically consistent. Turkish has agglutination, thus you can transfer that knowledge to other languages that have it as well. Unrelated to language, but Turkish food is AWESOME!

In this world that only the western world is considered worthy of experiencing, thank you for showing people how other cultures and languages are also very important and precious 😇

Here’s another proverb: *Taş yerinde ağır* Which translates to “Stone is only heavy where he sits”. Basically meaning that if you move something out of it’s place it will no longer be worth what it was. So for example if you take a sea shell from a beach, it will lose it’s shine after drying. Or if you take a flower out of a garden it will die. You can use it where something is nice where it belongs, like an animal in a zoo compared to one in a forest.

Though "tünaydın" literally translates to "the night is bright", we do not use it as "good night", we use it in place of "good afternoon"! We say "iyi geceler" or "tatlı rüyalar" which literally mean "good night" and "sweet dreams" respectively. I don't know why it is so, just wanted to correct that one.

Turkic languages are very similar on the whole, except for the highly divergent Chuvash language of the Volga region of Russia . I would say they differ less on the whole than say, the Germanic languages . They certainly aren’t all mutually intelligible, but it’s still quite easy for speakers of the different Turkic languages to learn one of those which are not immediately intelligible . For example, there’s probably less difference between the Uighur language and the Turkish of Turkey than between German and Danish despite the fact that German and Danish are geographically right next to each other and Turkish and Uighur are geographically very distant .

Danish and Norwegian are Germanic languages and share about 97% of cognates. Not sure if any Turkic languages share such a high percentage of cognates. Most Norwegians can understand Danish and Swedish with little or no previous exposure, so it depends on what Germanic languages you are thinking about.

It's an idiom rather than a proverb.

If you are learning Turkish, do not learn German-Turkish version as its more of a free style version. Most of the German-Turkish living in Germany makes a lot of violations of the rules while speaking Turkish. Learn the official accent which is the Istanbul Accent. Nice video.

Thanks Olly for the video. It was interesting and fun to watch. I learned a lot about my native language. Honestly, since we Turks, are highly immersed in the culture (like a fish in the sea so to speak), we tend to think that the frequent usage of proverbs, idioms and even poetry in Turkish is a universal phenomenon. But, thanks to your video, I now know that it is rather specific to Turkish. I feel pretty much illuminated.

My favorite proverb: "Baba oğul bir olunca, taş üstüne taş yığılmaz." (Translation: "When father and son are united, not even a stone can be piled up.") Meaning: When people work together, they can accomplish great things, even overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges.

@Olly Richards, The dance we saw at 11:29 is actually of Caucasus origin. In the 19th century, especially around 1850-1860, many Circassian people ( a semi-general name for the residents of the Caucasus region) were exiled to Ottoman Empire due to the Circassian genocide. They came with their culture, cuisine, and dances of course. Still, there are more than 2 million Circassians living in modern Turkiye.

I am a native Talysh speaker who grew up speaking 4 languages and I can now speak/read/write/understand an awful amount of other languages really difficult to give the exact number but definitely more than 8 ,all thanks to my parents btw. My parents speak a Turkic dialect spoken in the place called Astara which is divided between Azerbaijan and Iran all people who live there are at least bilingual. I understand and speak a little bit of Turkish which is insane because i never really had to learn it and now when I arrived in Turkey I don't feel like a foreigner that much lol since Olly, I love your channel and your books,though it scares me a bit that as soon as I left the UK for Turkey you posted this video lol Also ,here's a funny thing we Talysh speakers say about our language : all languages derived from Talysh. Let's take the Talysh word for "Leaf", for instance,which is "Leeva" or the word "ost" which sounds awfully like "hueso" in Spanish and means exactly the same thing. Our word for water is "ouv " which sounds like the French word for water "eau" . There are lots of other examples out there but yeah I prefer to think that the connection between Talysh and Proto Indo European is somewhat similar to that of Icelandic and Old😅 Norse.

It doesn't mean English, French and Spanish come from Talysh. It means they all (including Talysh) are indo-european languages.

Turkish is mutually intelligible, barring vocabulary differences, with the Turkic languages spoken in adjacent areas, in particular Gagauz, Qashqai, Azerbaijani, Uzbek, and Turkmen, and a speaker of Turkish can be understood as far east as Kyrgyzstan. Strictly speaking, the "Turkish" languages spoken between Mongolia and Turkey should be called Turkic languages, and the term "Turkish" should refer to the language spoken in Turkey alone. It is common practice, however, to refer to all these languages as Turkish, and differentiate them with reference to the geographical area, for example, the Turkish language of Azerbaijan.

As an Azerbaijani who did not learn Turkish or watched Turkish movies/serials too often, it took one week in Izmir to understand local people. But even now, sometimes there is some miss communication happens, especially with nouns. Some nouns are not the same in our languages. For example yesterday I would like to buy fruit. In Turkish it is called erik, in Azerbaijani alça. In Azerbaijani, we call erik what is in Turkey qaysi. According to my estimation, you need around one year of living in Turkey to become a native Turkish speaker if you are from Azerbaijan. You don't need language courses, though. Only speaking with locals, watching TV shows, and reading books are enough. It took around 2 hours to understand Math book of my nephew to be able to solve problems from that book faster than him. Terminology is very different but in Math, it is around 100 words you need to understand and memorize. I believe the same thing with other STEM subjects. The brain needs some time for adaptation. We Azerbaijanians are lucky. We could easily speak Turkish without too much effort.

I can’t tell you how accurate your point about Turkish containing a lot of proverbs is because I would literally struggle to find “words” or “sayings” in English to replace the Turkish ones but sometimes, it’s just hard to find such. I know that every language has proverbs and all that colloquial sayings but I think we might have a bit too many.

3) Suffixes in Turkish can be of 16 types: 1-v.+b-p 2-v.+c-ç 3-v.+d-t 4-v.+v-f 5-v.+ğ-g 6-v.+h 7-v.+k 8-v.+1 9-v.+m 10-v.+n 11-v.+r 12-v.+s 13-v.+s 14-v.+v 15-v.+y 16-v.+z Since the vocals marked with (v.) at the beginning of these can be of 8 types, it means that the suffixes take 8x 16 = 128 forms. These 16 annexes are reduced to 7 by intermingling as follows: 1-(M): Indicates any object or subject itself, property. (All the consonants we mentioned above in the first and second categories in the appendix mention, when they appear in the place of this "m", they show the same meaning. For example, "b, p, v, f, ğ, y" etc.) 2- 👎 : Firstly, it means the adjacent "m", that is, the object and the subject, which we have pointed out and explained. 3-(S): (ş,c,ç,j,z): -indicates the object or subject in a fairly wide area, the relationship between the subject and the object and something. Note: However, when the consons c and ç are taken as radical roots from the consons in this set, they become thick (pass) instead of the main root. 4- (L): Far, wide, uncertain, impersonal, found in every field, it is a show that characterizes the nail polish or the subject with the notion of generality and uncertainty such as everything, vast, broad. 5-(T-D): In addition, it generally describes constructiveness, constructiveness, being made, that is, the completeness and positiveness of the meaning of the word. 6- (K) (g,h,ğ, and this last one derived from ''ğ''''v' and its category): In addition, it completes the object and the panse (thought), it is a sign that determines. 7- (R): It is a sharp sign that helps to notice and appeal the formation, presence, movement of any subject, object or pansen by repeating and concentrating at a certain, definite point or field. means. Roles of Etymology, Morphology and Phonetics in the Vocabulary In terms of etymology, the roots of the Turkish language -(v.+k) can be explained with the motto-another vocal, after which it is established as a conson If the words we use today have changed in our mouth, it is morphological formations and phonetic necessities. The main shapes given by the etymology are shortened according to the morphology and phonetic rules. As the root suffixes are attached, a set of vocals in the beginning and in the middle are dropped so that the words do not get longer. It turns out that;1- Etymology shows us the main root of the language, the radical roots arising from it, the addition of suffixes to them, thus the first and complete formation of the word. 2-Morphology tells the different forms of the word in the first and full foundation. 3- Phonetics puts words in full and collective form in a way that sounds good. 4- In the etymological forms of Turkish words, there are no consonants of the same genus that come together. The reason for this state seen in morphological forms is as follows: When the word contains a suffix or root that requires an extra extension, the preceding or following conson replaces this extension for phonetic reasons. For example: The etymological form of the word (fifty) is (beğliğ); This origin is replaced by the next conson instead of (ge) in the figure. The role is extension. Likewise, the origin of the word (force) is (kuveget). Here (v) is used instead of (eğ). Also, it should be kept in mind that when the vocals of the second one of the consonants that stick together as vocals at the beginning fall, two consons of the same gender are stuck together.

Great video, very sincere and accurate. Well structured.

Turkish is indeed a very artistic language. This culture started with the old Turkic Monuments and Sagu's (A poem like text written after a dead Khan) and later on when Turks came to Anatolia from East Asia/Central Asia they inspired by persian religious poems which also affected their switch on religion.

Hey nice and interesting video there thanks for trying to share funny facts about our language and cultural things :) But gotta leave here some corrections just for the best :) Don't know where you got that from but "Karda yürüyüp iz bırakmamak" just can be translated as "walking on/through snow without leaving footprints (behind)" and means to do something or being on a thing without anyone understanding/seeing it or something like that. There is no part with love at all... "Avcunu yala" - "lick your palm" means something like 'in your dreams' 'you can just hope for that'. We can try to imagine it like this.. you want something but you won't ever get it so the person is saying to you "lick your palm" (in the hope of at least some crumb of what you wanted may have fallen on to your hand/palm you shall lick your palm to get it if there is something at all) but it is very metaphoristic ment. The speaker is actually trying to point out OF COURSE that there isn't and won't be anything in your hand knowingly. And yes it is a very aggressive way to say that :D .... Actually there are much more countries speaking turkish and so it is much more spoken than being one of the top 20 but they are not officialy accepted as turkish and are counted each as another language. For example Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Turkmen and many many more (more than 20 countries) do speak turkish as their mother language. It is just a bit different from Türkiye Turkish in some letter pronunciasions and they use more old turkish words (which people living in the countrysides still use as well in Türkiye). And I can understand them and they can understand me very quick and easy after a bit talking... Much love

Now he writes, he got married, has a child. Now age ten, are the kids that fell in the womb when i fell in a prison cell, And those colts with thin legs and wiggling stances, Became large and comfortable mares now.

This language was designed by our ancestors to speak on horseback. Therefore, aside from those who are overly interested, those who want to learn just to talk, please do not dive into it. It would be best to learn this language by directly experiencing it instead of dealing with the grammatical structure that even we do not understand most of the time. It is one of the easiest languages to speak because it only has around 100,000 words. (In English, this number is 1 million) So after learning some common words, the rest is to use them according to the situation. And Turks are generally friendly towards foreigners. Do not hesitate to chat with anyone you want, even while walking.

Woow what an exhaustive video about the languege and beyond. It was entartaining. Selam from Turkiye 🙋🏻‍♀️🇹🇷

as a turkish person, I had a blast wtaching the video👍

2:55 EVERYONE gets this wrong. (See the Edited Part for better translation, (I forgot a suffix in the "Afyon" thing, the ones without the suffix are translated to their relative meaning. No mistake was made there.) ) It is not "Afyonkarahisarlaştıramadıklarımızdanmısınız" it is "Afyonkarahisarlaştıramadıklarımızdan mısınız?" which ruins the vibe so if you want to act cool around your friends, just try to pronounce "Afyonkarahisarlaştıramadıklarımızdan." (Those who we could not Afyonkarahisarify. [Yes, something-ify'ing something is actually a supported word/suffix in the Turkish Language. It may be incorrect to Olly Richards-ify something in English, but in Turkish you can say that and it still remains as proper use of grammar.]) In Turkish, no matter what, you have to seperate "mı?, mi?, mü?, mu?" (roughly translates to "is?" in English). You also have to separate it's counterpart(s) "mısınız?, müsünüz?, mısınız?, musunuz?" (Roughly translates to Formal "are you?, would you....?" it is also used normally and formally [either can be used] for plural "you" questions. "Would you take a cup of coffee?" "Would you (multiple people)/you guys take a cup of coffee?" "Bir fincan kahve alır mısınız?" So yeah, I've seen another person on KZread which was Turkish, present this as "the longest word in Turkish" (which is false anyway). And he broke grammar rules by not separating "mısınız?" which made it seem like one word rather than two. (Afyonkarahisarlaştıramadıklarımızdanmısınız?) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: I didn't see the OTHER suffix "-lı" in there. So here is the correct version and translation: "AfyonkarahisarLIlaştıramadıklarımızdan" means "The ones we could not turn into Afyonkarahisarians." or "The ones we could not Afyonkarahisarianify." The first one is more "correct". "AfyonkarahisarLIlaştıramadıklarımızdan mısınız?" 1) "Are you the ones (indicates there is a group of people we are talking to) we could not turn into Afyonkarahisarians?" 2) "Are you the ones (indicates there is a group of people we are talking to, again) we could not Afyonkarahisarianify?" 3) "Are you one of the people (only one person is here. Formal "you" is used.) that we could not turn into Afyonkarahisarians?" 4) "Are you one of the people (only one person is here. Formal "you" is used, again.) we could not Afyonkarahisarianify?" Afyonkarahisar is a city in Turkey. Third one in fact. (There are 81 MAIN cities in Turkey. And no, İstanbul is not the capital.)

6:17 "Sevgili" is used as an adjective here, not a noun. Instead of "Lover", it is "Lovely" as in "Lovely people of Turkey" After rewatching it, that may not be the case. But if you hear "sevgili" when the person is referring to a group or a crowd, the speaker most likely meant "lovely" and as an adjective. (Not always the case, though!)
