| Hey guys, welcome back to Turkish white board series. |
| Today we have another fun topic. |
| We will learn about Turkish currency, |
| the lira and the big big large large numbers till |
| Okay, if you are ready buckle up and let's get started. |
| Okay, first we will start by learning the vocabulary |
| and look at the look at the board and don't get frightened. |
| Okay, I know there are a lot of numbers in here |
| but before we start I have to tell you that |
| Turkish numbers are all regular so when you know a couple of things |
| you just add the numbers and it's easy |
| there is no irregularity in Turkish numbers so |
| you already I assume that you already know to count from 1 to 10 |
| bir, iki, üç, dört, beş, altı, yedi, sekiz, dokuz, on |
| and I will start with ""on"" meaning ten. |
| Let's see. |
| on |
| yirmi |
| otuz |
| kirk |
| elli |
| altmış |
| yetmiş |
| seksen |
| doksan |
| yüz |
| Okay, This is our first set from 10 to 100. |
| on, yirmi, otuz, kirk, elli, altmış, yetmiş, seksen, doksan, yüz |
| and I want you to notice something |
| after yüz till 1000 |
| you just add the numbers 1 2 3 before the number yüz, Okay? |
| Let's see. |
| iki yüz |
| üç yüz |
| dört yüz |
| beş yüz |
| altı yüz |
| yedi yüz |
| sekiz yüz |
| dokuz yüz |
| Do you see |
| iki, üç, dört, beş, altı, yedi, sekiz, dokuz, |
| These are the normal numbers and you add yüz |
| so, it's very easy okay and after this part. |
| Now we came to thousands and thousand means 'bin' in Turkish okay? |
| bin this is thousand okay |
| let's separate it like this as well okay from |
| iki yüz to dokuz yüz and then we have 1000 and after this |
| it's again regular you just add 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 to 1000 |
| So, let's see |
| iki bin |
| üç bin |
| dört bin |
| beş bin |
| altı bin |
| yedi bin |
| sekiz bin |
| dokuz bin |
| See, easy peasy and then we have on bin |
| because this is on bin |
| and it's not our topic today but if you want to continue you just add 20 30 40 50 |
| and bin and you make the larger larger numbers okay so it's easy |
| no irregularity okay let's say it. |
| One more time. |
| on |
| yirmi |
| otuz |
| kirk |
| elli |
| altmış |
| yetmiş |
| seksen |
| doksan |
| yüz |
| iki yüz |
| üç yüz |
| dört yüz |
| beş yüz |
| altı yüz |
| yedi yüz |
| sekiz yüz |
| dokuz yüz |
| bin |
| iki bin |
| üç bin |
| dört bin |
| beş bin |
| altı bin |
| yedi bin |
| sekiz bin |
| dokuz bin |
| And on bin very good too much too many numbers |
| but it's not that difficult I guess okay let's continue |
| okay let's now continue with our dialogue and learn about the currency in Turkish |
| Bu kupa kaç para? |
| How much does this mug cost? |
| yetmiş lira elli kuruş |
| It costs seventy lira and fifty kuruş, okay? |
| Let's see our examples. |
| Bir lira elli kuruş |
| It costs one lira fifty kuruş |
| Beş bin iki yüz kırk sekiz lira |
| It costs five thousand two hundred forty-eight lira, okay? |
| you see |
| When we talk about currencies Turkish currency is lira |
| and the currency smaller than lira is kuruş |
| but this is a cultural note I guess it's very bad for us but because of the |
| high high high rate of inflation in Turkey |
| now kuruş doesn't mean much of course we still use it |
| but there is actually nothing to buy using kuruş |
| because everything is way more expensive |
| to pay than kuruş it's not like cent in or quarter like USD dollar |
| okay now let's continue |
| Let's see our sentence pattern here |
| actually, our sentence pattern much is much easier than English |
| because you only say the number you don't even have a full sentence |
| you say number lira number kuruş that's it |
| whatever the number is number lira number kuruş |
| See, Bir lira elli kuruş, |
| number lira number kuruş |
| yetmiş lira elli kuruş, |
| number lira number kuruş |
| Beş bin iki yüz kırk sekiz lira because we don't have kuruş here |
| number lira that's it |
| if you don't have the kuruş you just say number lira that's it |
| you don't need to say it costs number lira and number kuruş |
| you don't have this part in Turkish. |
| Okay, normally we are done, |
| but before we are done let's continue with this |
| we have a couple of numbers to you know study together |
| let's say 31 how do we say it |
| otuz bir |
| and you see all our numbers are written separately |
| otuz bir |
| this is otuz and you add bir one |
| seksen üç |
| iki yüz kırk sekiz |
| iki yüz kırk sekiz |
| And, 1530 |
| Bin beş yüz otuz |
| That's it. |
| I hope you enjoyed this lesson. |
