Similiar but never the same. We don’t always pronounce all letters.. Burada, öğrenecek etc. Ğ and A are not pronounced ö,ç,ş,ı,ğ,ü,İ are not available in indonesian. I know languages thats why im telling you
I was able to hear the difference in the sounds very easily. This is one of the rare occasions where my hypersensitive hearing is actually useful for something!
These letters were so difficult to pronounce, but I managed to successfully pronounce them after your lesson. Thank you so much Can🌷 Greetings from Kuwait 🇰🇼
I love your Turkish classes! What is your name? You are an excellent teacher. I admire and love the Turkish language because it is so different from everything I have heard and seen up to now. The words are so STRANGE ! Nothing to do with our occidental languages. I am Brazilian, my native language is Portuguese. The Turkish language is a very intelligent language: it has NO gender at all... that is fantastic! It has no definite or indefinite article. I am José (Yusif) from Brasília, the capital town of Brazil. Please go on giving your interesting classes !!! Congratulations !!!
Additional simple tips İ ( 'i' as in internet) I ('e' as in open) U ('u' as in ultimate) Ü ('u' as in cube) O ('o' as in orange) Ö ('u' as in turn) Note: - i, u & o are same as in English. - ı & ö are same, but sound /ö/ is a bit longer (in arabic, 2 harakat long) - u & ü are same, /ü/ is a bit longer. Hope it helps ^^
This was helpful. I would like to to hear Ü, Ö, and I back to back. I can hear a difference with U, O, and I. Could you please pronounce the letters in that order?
I can HEAR the difference; it's just hard for me to pronounce the difference! By the way, in the US, we mostly reverse the sounds we make when we see something disgusting, so that's how I learned how to pronounce /ı/, not /i/. Çok teşekkürler for thıs very helpful video!
I could tell the difference easily, but to extend on that further you could do a test where viewers close their eyes and guess which one you used. I think that would be useful, to help with recognition. As for pronunciation, I'm going to have to practice them for hours to get it right, but that's how it was with the rolled r and I can do that now. Maybe it won't be so hard
The video is superb and you did your best to show the difference between sounds. The difference was very clear. But when I hear sentences I can hardly spot the difference between o and ö and u and ü....Turkish speakers please dont kill me. Im trying to learn the language. So in Urdu we have lost several sounds where the pronunciation is only slightly different such as ث and س and ا and ع etc. Its appreciable that Turkish didnt lose the difference. Another reason I find it difficult to pronounce some Turkish words is the fact that we have the same words in Urdu but they are pronounced differently and I get stuck there. But Im trying 😀
I learned those from German. For ö you begin from e and without stopping speaking turn the lips into a circle, and for ü you do the same starting from i. For ı you start from a and without stopping speaking bring the teeth a bit closer. And by the way, I just found out that my name Athanásios means Ölümsüzlük!!! Hahaha! Is there a Turkish or Arabic name with this meaning?
I just realise that u, o and i in turkish is very similar as we pronounce them in spanish ... Ö could be like schwa sound, I and Ü imposible to me currently
I’m learning a bit of Turkish from an app, so I have to trust my ears to detect different nuances in pronunciation. I would say that even the vowel “E” has two sounds depending on the letters around it. For example, the word şeker sounds like “shay-kehr.” In other words, the first E sounds like the English long sound for A, and the second E sounds like English short sound for E. Am I imagining this?! 😅
So when people tell you each letter makes the same sound no matter where it is in the word.. THEY ARE LYING! consonents change sounds! Like for example On - ten, and Orman- forest.. On- sounds like ah, and Orman sounds like Oh.
I feel like speaking Spanish definitely helps. It would be a little more difficult if I only spoke English. Because Spanish uses a lot of " á, é, í, ó, ú 👈 those little stick thingies... I forgot what they are called which can change the way you pronounce a word and in some cases have the power to change the meaning of a word. 😅 For example: papa ( meaning potato with a more "plain" pronunciation) vs papá (meaning dad). Plus, I feel like every language is connected in some way. I've come across a few words that sound like Spanish or English.
Those are called accent but they don't change nothing, they just mark the difference of the tones, or stress basically When it has á/é/í/ó/ú it sounds longer or with a higher tone, but they don't make a different sound
Excellent! I love your dynamics. I have found you just then so believe me I'm fascinated with your method of teaching your beautiful language. I know lots of grammar but...ama...my conversation is zero..I hope to learn a lot with you, thanks a lot! Kendine iyi bak
Teşekkürler Can!! By the way, in English, we never call the morning bird a "cock" we always say "rooster". The word "cock" has become a sexual curse word in English.
Thank you so much for this! I’m a beginner and I would love to speak to someone that knows Turkish 😃 your videos makes me talk lol 😆 even dough is recorded 😄😄😄
You’re so patient and humorous. I’d love live classes in your school. Fun is the best way to learn! Ö isn’t the vowel on French oeuf? Is l more like the British English look or like the British English luck? Could you do a video on Ö and I please. That’s so hard for me.
Lol!!!! you are so funny! love your videos. I'm learning Turkish so I can understand the Turkish language since I watch a lot of Turkish series/movies. So different from the rest. Thank you! Teşekkürler ederim!
By equivalence: ö (like "schön" - in German); "i" (like "eat" - in English); "i" without the dot (like "it" - in English) and "ü" (like "tu" - in French)
Hey, thank you so much for these videos! I am Hungarian, we also have ö and ü in our alphabet and they are pronounced the same way as in Turkish. Still, I can't hear or understand the difference between ı and ü. Could you explain it a bit further? 😳
When I got to the part where viewers test themselves at the end, I couldn't remember. Could you please make separate videos with MANY examples for only ONE pair of vowels in each video? (First video, i-ı; 2nd o-ö; 3rd, u-ü.) Some of us are slower learners and need more help and more practice. (There is no shame in that.) Thanks for considering this idea!
(Selamun aleyküm ben hindçe benim adım farzana) i liked your teaching you are very good teacher i watched your videos and try to speak in Turkish and understand Turkish
By my situation, this letters are easy, cuz' in my motherlanguage (Hungarian) there are ö and ü too^^ Anyways, I love your videos, helps a lot! I love turkish language sm
That's quite fascinating to me to be honest. I can understand that it could be difficult to pronounce certain sounds because you've never trained your mouth to do so. But for me it's hard to imagine some people also cannot hear the differences between the vowels in this video. I can't speak or understand any Turkish by the way, but I'm Dutch. But maybe it helps that the Dutch language has a lot of vowel sounds, also similar to these.
We have ö in Swedish. When English people come across it in words like Björn, smörgåsbord and Malmö. They ignore it, which I find frustrating to be honest. They're lazy when it comes to pronunciations, they can't be bothered.
The difference between o and ö is no problem... my problem is that ö and ı sound the same to me! I really wish you had made a section comparing and explaining the difference in sound between the two!
I completely agree. What further defeats me is the mouth shape for ı. When I make the correct sound i automatically make the incorrect mouth shape! So frustrating lol😅
I speak English, so I have no trouble hearing the difference between I and İ, or U and Ü, or O and Ö. The problem is hearing the difference between Ö and Ü. In the video, the speaker said that Ö was the vowel in English "girl", but gave no similar advice about Ü. There was no discussion about the difference between Ö and Ü, which are the only similar sounds.
The one I find the most difficult is ü, especially when it is very near to the ö, as in ölümsüzlük. That transition from ö to ü right away is complicated
Ö and o are used mostly in the beginning of the word. Görüldü. Ölümsüz. Ödeme. Önce. Ondalık. Orası. There is an exception though. Horoz, kolon. Notice that in this situation first vowel and the second one is the same. I mean you may see o and ö as a second vowel only if the first one is the so.
Merhaba Can. ( I hope I get your name correctly ). I came across your channel, and I am learning Türkçe from you. Yes, you produce excellent lessons . Teşekkür ederim hocam. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Well… I have never had difficulties listening to sounds in different languages which makes it weird coz, when concentrating, I can actually pass for a local most times. Kinesthesic synesthesia works in mysterious ways.
