From unit 2 onwards, you'll find that the structure of each unit is consistent. Each of the units has four parts: Part A jis presented by Atilla Oymak and Aysun Uzan and gives you the KEY LANGUAGE of the unit. ____ Part B | gives you the chance to hear Atilla using the language in real-life situations in Istanbul, Turkey. You will learn to use this language yourself. Part C] reminds you of the Key LANGUAGE and gives you the chance to use it and have the satisfaction of realising that you can cope. Part D| reveals the outcome of the story you heard in part B.You should be able to understand this without any help — although help is there if you need it. Here is a summary of the main activities you will do to achieve efficient learning: | work with the book: 2 listen to the recording: 3 stop the recording to repeat or think; 4 use the book and recording together. ere are four symbols used in this book: @ the question mark indicates that you will find solutions at the end of the unit; 2.40 section numbers that appear in grey indicate that all the information for this activity is on the English page (i.e. the left-hand page); Q the open book indicates an activity which uses only the book and not the recording; indicates CD track number for an activity. (Only relevant for the CD based course and not for the cassette version.) in each unit, the most effective way to learn is to start by working on the book and the cording together. You can then use your eyes and your ears to help you to understand and learn, The book and recording will take you step by step through the unit.You'll see that the English advice and explanations are always on the left-hand page and that the ‘Turkish they refer to is always opposite, on the right-hand page. When you feel confident with the language, you can work with just the recording. Listen to it as often as you can — in the car, on the train, while doing the housework, for example. This repeated playing will help you to learn the language and to become really confident and fluent. Sometimes you can listen very carefully and repeat what you hear.At other times you can just have it in the background while you relax or do something else. All this will help you to progress quickly in the fast lane to learning Turkish.Se eg et a Sei eS & ae Para een Oecan understand. Le ATILAANO AYSUN Each unit is introduced by Atilla and Aysun. They guide you through the Key LANGUAGE. You'll also hear it being used by Aysun, Atila and the people he meets in Istanbul. o@ In this unit you'll learn how to: ~ say hello: ‘Welcome to unit | which will give you a taste of the course. You may be very pleasantly surprised by how much you ~ say what your name is; ' — understand many useful Turkish words and pronounce them the Tur way. 1.2 Key LANGUAGE In each unit, you'll be presented with the Key LANGUAGE. Here it is for unit | 2 Hello! My name is Atilla (I'm Atilla). Hello! My name is Aysun (I'm Aysun). Hello, Atilla! Hello, Aysun! Look at the Turkish and make sure that you know what each sentence means. Then follow each sentence in the book as you listen to it. Do this several times until you feel confident with the sentences. Then play them again and repeat after each speaker, tating the speed and the accent. @ P This is an excellent learning technique which you can use throughout the course. It ean be summarised as: (i) read and listen; (ji) read, listen and repeat after the Turkish speakers; (ii) read, listen and repeat with the Turkish speakers. 1.3 Over To You Now you can use the language you have learned. Look at the photos of the people (a-d) ‘and the KEY LANGUAGE on the page opposite and decide what each person would say to @e@ introduce himselfherself.To show you how to do it, you're given an example (Srnek, in Turkish).

Cover up the English words below and look at the list of Turkish words on the page opposite.Tick all those you cor oy know, can work out, or guess. Then check with the list on this page, and learn those you didn't know.You could copy them and their English equivalents into a notebook (the very act ‘of writing them down will help you to learn them) and carry it around with you, learning a few words whenever you have a spare moment. In each unit, you'll be given a useful hint o about how to learn words. Use techniques which work for you whenever you try to learn new words or phrases.Alll the words used in the dialogues are listed at the end of the book. ‘You can also use it to mean here iti ‘Turks do noc usualy use surnames when addressing people.

He records for us useful language at che airport. First, Mr Korkmaz,a business manager, is welcomed by his company cor cc representative. Then Atilla takes a taxi to his hotel. | Ge In this unit you can learn how to: = say hello and goodbye. please and thank you, = attract people's attention; ~ and, above all, make the most of a small amount of language. There's no magic wand that will enable you to speak fluent Turkish overnight. Goodwill is important, though. You'll find, as you listen to Atilla in Istanbul, that saying please! will help you in a whole variety of situations, especially if you smile! Hello Thank you Not at all Goodbye* Bye-bye" Acoffee, please. Hotel Akdeniz, please. ‘Taksim Square, please. * and In Turkish, the person who leaves says Allahaismarladuk: and the person who stays behind says Giile giile. Another way of saying goodbye is Hogeakal or Hogeakalin (polite). Try to learn the Turkish phrases, then cover up the English Key LANGUAGE on this page. Look at the opposite page and see how much of the English you can remember, then cover up the Turkish phrases and do it in reverse. LEARNING STRATEGIES Remember to work through every section with the book and recording as many times as you need in order to feel comfortable with the language. In unit |, you learned the ‘sequence: read and listen, then repeat after, and then with, the Turkish speakers. You can now add a step to this.When you have repeated after and with the Turkish speakers, try to keep the language in your mind while you do something else. Then try saying the sentences again, gradually increasing the time gap. In this way, the KeY LANGUAGE will become part of your long-term memory — you will have learned it! So, this strategy can be summed up as: () read and listen; (ii) repeat after the speakers; (li) repeat with the speakers: (jv) repeat without an immediate model. Practise doing this sequence with the key Turkish sentences in 2.2 opposite. Then test yourself. When you hear the Turkish for the following, repeat it: a A coffee, please. b Hotel Akdeniz, please. ¢ Thank you. 1 vosLorre!

Looking at the photos on the opposite page: coi @ ask to be taken to the Hotel Akdeniz; b ask to be taken to Taksim Square; say you'd like a coffee. 2.4 STRATEGIES Its a good idea to train yourself to listen and to read in a positive way, picking out the key words that carry the message, and ignoring what is less important. What is the SL Sa You'll understand better if you anticipate the words you expect to hear in a particular situation and learn them. In this unit, you will hear Atilla in the airport café, at the newspaper kiosk, king a taxi,and arriving at the hotel. Look at the list of words below and tick any that you expect to hear in Turkish in these situations. First, learn the Turkish for all the words you ticked, and then listen to the recording. ‘One good technique is to concentrate on a word and try to ‘photograph’ it in your mind.Then cover it up and write it down from memory. Do this with all ‘words and then with four or five at a time. A useful way of dealing with any words you find difficult to remember is to copy them ‘out with their English meanings on a slip of paper, and carry it about with you. Use any ‘odd spare moments to revise them — in a bus, for example, or while waiting for the kettle to boil. ‘You'll find it easier to understand people if you think in advance about what they're likely to say in certain situations. So, when Atilla asks for a coffee at the airport café, you Qa already know that he is unlikely to say I'd like you to bring me a coffee, please, but rather A coffee, please. Note down in English similar phrases you might hear or need to say: a at a newspaper kiosk (e.g tissues, please); b inahotel; ¢ inarestaurant.2.3 Sirasizoe Omnek: © Birkahwe, litfen. 2.4 BOYLE DENEYIN a Bir kola, litfen. b Akdeniz Oteli, liitfen. c Afedersiniz, istasyon nerede? 2.8 KeLiMeLer | Le 8 kahveniz 15 hayir 20 var m? 2 ben 9 birkola, litfen 16 oda 21 birdakika, litfen 3 hog geldiniz 10 birhamburger, tatfen 17 numara 22 restoran 4 afedersiniz 11 birdondurma, latfen 18 10 numarah oda 23 nerede? 5 bakar msmiz? 12 kagitmendil. litfen 19 telefon burada 6 derhal 13 bir ‘Harriyet’ Ititfen 7 buyrun? 14 iyi ganler ONcE DOSONON2.7 Now I UNDERSTAND _| To ask for a coffee, to ask to be taken to Hotel Akdeniz, and to ask for the restaurant, = Aatlla simply says what he wants, and adds please (Bir kahve, liitfen).As you listen, cor (2) @ note down in English six other instances of the same strategy being used.

Then check. 2.11 Grammar A noun is a word used to name a person, a place or a thing (e.g. Aysun, istanbul, taksi). Turkish nouns, similiar to English ones, do not have gender distinction. Turkish @ Q does not have articles like a, an or the. These are expressed in different ways as you will learn later, Numbers come before the nouns, like Bir kahve (one coffee).You can order two coffees simply by placing ilki (two) before coffee: ikki kahve. Note that the noun after the number word stays in the singular. Look at the nouns on the opposite page. How would you ask for two of each item? 2.12 ListeN AGAIN Each time you hear someone say .... Hittfent!, repeat the whole sentence twice, in the @ @ pause which follows it. Pen rs using what you've learned. Play the recording through once or twice until you're ‘comfortable with the language. Then play it again, and repeat what you hear. 2.13 The dialogue on the page opposite, shows how you can develop the bare formula «++» Hitfem! into a more lengthy exchange, simply by adding other phrases from the Key ey @ LANGUAGE of this unit.

Repeat after and with the speakers. Then look at the English version and, with that as a prompt, try to say the conversation in Turkish. 3.11 Grammar Turkish uses suffixes (endings) to express meanings for which words are used in English. For example, nouns take suffixes to show possession. Therefore, my name is adam (a am: name-my); your name is adnaz (ad-im1z: name-your), To express words like in, at, rom, Turkish also uses suffixes. For example, in London is Londra’da (Londra-da); from the company is girketten (girket-ten). Averb is a word which describes an action (e.g. live) or a state (e.g.!.am). In Turkish the tense of the verb and the person responsible are expressed by endings. In the word yagiyorum (/ am living), yor indicates present action, and um shows I.In yasiyorsunuz (you live), sunuz shows you (plural). Note how easy itis to ask ‘questions in Turkish. ou simply put mi /m/miu/mii after the word you want to know about: istanbul’da mu? means in [stonbul?; Tiirk mii’? means Is he/she Turkish? You are talking to a new Turkish acquaintance, who gives you the three answers opposite. ‘What questions did you ask him? 20 yirmi I3.9 Konusma SiRKET Atilla Miize mi? Rue Meat Ayse Evet, mivze.

In this unit you can learn how to: 2 — ask whether certain facilities are nearby; — ask the way; — understand what people say in reply. ‘When you see signs to places such as banka and otel you'll have no difficulty in finding them. But sometimes you'll have to ask whether there is something you want nearby, and. understand what people tell you in reply. 5.2 Key LANGUAGE Excuse me, is there a bus stop* near here?

Indmii Caddesi is made up of tnénii + Cadde + i (possessive sufix). * In Turkey a dotmus (shored taxi or minibus) isa common and efficient way of public transport. To help you learn these sentences, you could look at the Turkish and write the first letter only of each word, Do something else for a few minutes, and then try to write the sentences in full, using the first letters as a prompt. You can increase the time gap for more effective learning. 5.3 OverToYOU You can already begin to ask your way now, and give directions.

(lteraly Stroight 03 eQ g0!), want to go gitmek istiyorum (literally to go | want). Note that to go is gitmek, but Gol is Git!, or in the polite form, it is Gidin!. In Turkish a suffix is added to the end of the noun to express to, eg. sokak (street) but sokaga (to the street); inémii Caddesi (Indnii Road) but inénii Caddesine (to Indnii Road); 8g (right) but saga (to the right). In unit 3 you learned another suffix, which is also added to the end of a noun to express onlin, e.g. Ol (left) but solda (on the left); sag (right) but sagda (on the right) Look at each of the words opposite, which already have different forms of the suffix meaning to,and say that you want to go there. 12 ListEN AGAIN Replay some extracts from the story.

With Nuran, his wife, they go to the restaurant. og In this unit you can learn how to: 1) — ask and talk about a house or flat; — say what rooms there are; = say whether you like it. A.useful point of contact with people can be made by talking about homes, and it is interesting to discover the differences in Turkish and British attitudes. Without a system of mortgages, owning a house in Turkey is financially more difficult in contrast to Britain. The Turks are more likely than a similar British family to live in a flat, which is probably rented, than in a house — especially if they live in town. 6.2 Key LANGUAGE We have a house.* ‘We have a flat. ‘The house is small. It’s small. (It’s a small house.) The house is expensive. eee How many rooms do you have? There is akitchen. There is a dining room. There isa living room. There is a bedroom. There is a bathroom. There isa toilet. ‘Do you have a garage? No, we don't have a garage. /No, there is no garage. ‘The word ev can mean «house, «flat oro home. Draw a plan of a house, or a flat,and label the rooms with words from the Key LANGUAGE. Test yourself to be sure that you know the KEY LANGUAGE. Listen to the recording and say the Turkish for: silk J Ce a ahouse; the house is small; € the house is expensive; d_ how many rooms do you have? there is a kitchen; f there is a dining room; g h i I k es ry do you have a garage? ‘no, we don't have a garage: there is a bedroom; there is a bathroom; there is a toilet.6.1_ATILLAISMAIL BEYLERDE Gok tesekkiir ederim.

Looking at the plan. baa eeQ ‘of your home, on the page opposite, answer his questions. 6.4 STRATEGIES In Turkish you can maximize your knowledge of words by forming other words from the ‘ones you have learned. You can make new nouns from verbs, new nouns from nouns, new @ Qa verbs from nouns,and new verbs from verbs. For example: otur (sit or live in) will give you oturma, which means sitting (or living in one place). Then you can combine this word with the noun oda (room),and you'll get ‘oturma odasi (living room). Look at the words on the page opposite. Try to guess what the Turkish equivalents for the following are: a) go to bedllie down; b) bedroom; c) eat; 4) dining room; e) child; ) child's room. Hf gallag means work, you can guess what Ismail Kaya is saying to Atilla? 6.5 VOCABULARY (One good way to learn vocabulary and Key LANGUAGE is to make some cards about the size of a credit card.
