| Hi, everybody! This is Selin from TurkishClass101.com. |
| Do you know how to say “thank you” in Turkish? In this lesson, you'll learn three different ways to say "thank you" and how to respond. |
| Let’s start with the formal way to say "Thank you." |
| Teşekkür ederim. |
| [slowly] Teşekkür ederim. |
| It means “thank you" or literally "I give my thanks." |
| If you want to show your sincere appreciation for something, say this phrase. |
| Çok teşekkür ederim. |
| [slowly] Çok teşekkür ederim |
| The word çok means "very." So this expression means "Thank you very much." |
| It expresses a deeper appreciation for a personal kindness. |
| When you want to appreciate someone in a more casual way, you can use this expression. |
| Teşekkürler. |
| [slowly] Teşekkürler. |
| When you want to thank your friends, use this expression. |
| Now you know 3 different ways to say "thank you" in Turkish! But how do you respond if someone thanks you? |
| If someone says "thank you" in Turkish, simply say Bir şey değil. It means "You're welcome." |
| Let's wrap up this lesson by recapping what we've learned. Listen to the expressions and repeat after me. |
| The formal way to say “Thank you." |
| Teşekkür ederim. |
| *beep |
| Teşekkür ederim. |
| "Thank you so much." |
| Çok teşekkür ederim. |
| *beep |
| Çok teşekkür ederim. |
| The casual way to say "thank you." |
| Teşekkürler. |
| *beep |
| Teşekkürler. |
| And to respond, just say: |
| Bir şey değil. |
| *beep |
| Bir şey değil. |
| Well done! [pause] |
| If you're not sure which one to use, you can just say the casual one - teşekkürler. It can be used with anyone, anywhere, and at any time! |
