About the book
"Elementary Turkish is a beginning level course for learners of Turkish. The variety of Turkish presented in this textbook corresponds to standard Turkish, the official language of the Republic of Turkey and the language spoken by educated Turkish speakers. ElementaryTurkish has a multi-skills syllabus. It is cyclical: materials presented in one unit recur in the same or expanded form, in the subsequent unit(s). Materials chosen are comprised of high-frequency words, idioms, expressions, and grammatical structures. The language used is natural, avoiding contrived expressions. Grammar is graded, moving from simple to more complex elements. Units are based on conversations. Culture is treated as an integral part of the language and the language-learning process. The book contains over 500 exercises. At the end of the book, there is an Answer Key to Exercises. Audio materials (in two CDs) contain the alphabet, all of the conversations and the listening sections. An English translation is provided for each conversation and sample sentence. A cumulative Turkish-English glossary contains about 1,200 most-frequently-used words. A reverse English-Turkish glossary is provided for convenience. " -- from the publisher. Source: Publisher
