Turkish Alphabet
Lets get started with the alphabet
Not too many changes with the letters a few additions and a few deletions.
This maybe a good time to check out if your computer has the facility to change from the English Keyboard to a Turkish Keyboard. Play around, find out where the new keys are.
Although not too many changes with the letters there will be changes in sound.
Now the choice you have to make.
You can either spend time remembering each letter and sound Or you can choose to refer back with each new word you learn.
