Greetings, opinions and ideas

Saying hello and goodbye, giving and justifying an opinion, and the words for thoughts.

What holds these lists together

In Turkish a greeting is a small decision. The person leaving says hoşça kal, the one staying answers güle güle; to hoş geldiniz “welcome” you reply hoş bulduk. From there the lists climb to conversation: saying what you think (bence, “in my opinion”), agreeing and disagreeing, giving reasons. The abstract nouns at the end are often made with -lik, like English “-dom” or “-ness”: özgür “free” becomes özgürlük “freedom”.

For example: merhaba (hello), bence (in my opinion, I think), eğer (if), anlam (meaning, sense)

The four lists

Spread across the levels

The category runs across the levels — it is an area, not a difficulty. If you practise it, you can also choose a level at the top of the practice page and then get only the part that sits there.
