Lesson Transcript

Hey you guys! Welcome back to another whiteboard Turkish lessons.
Today we'll talk about how to give your email address.
Are you guys ready?
Let's get started!
Okay first we need to learn the Turkish alphabet, the letters.
I will say them how we pronounce them in Turkish.
A - ah
B - beh
C - ceh
It is pronounced like J in Jam.
Ç - che
And this is pronounced like ch in church.
D - deh
E - eh
F - feh
G - geh
Ğ -
This is soft G.
This is how we say yumuşak ge. But the sound is actually
ğ
And after that
H - heh
I - ih
This sound is sometimes hard for Turkish learners.
It is like the ""ih"" sound in mansion.
You have to make that ""ih"" weird face when practicing.
You don't have to do it while you're speaking ih.
İ - ih
It's like ""i"" in sit.
J - jeh
It is the sound like you make pleasure.
pleasure
K - keh
L - leh
M - meh
N - neh
O - oh
This is also different.
Ö
Like bird
Ö
bird
Ö
P - peh
R - reh
And this is we say R.
R
It's more subtle.
It's more dominant when it's at the beginning.
But if it's at the end it's more like R.
You just, you don't make that hard of a sound, reh.
S - seh
As in setup.
Ş - sheh
This is like the sheep.
Okay, Ş
T - teh
This is U - uh
like bull
U
ü - üh
It's like a whistle.
ü
It's like ü in rue
V - ve
Y - yeh
And z - zeh
This is how we say it in Turkish.
Okay we are done with our letters.
And let's see how to give our email address now.
Okay, First look at our dialogue.
E-posta adresiniz lütfen.
E-posta adresim seda@innolang.com.
(E-posta adresim seda et innolang nokta com)
Your email address please.
My email address is seda@innolang.com.
Okay?
And let's check out our sentence structure.
It is very easy.
You just say
e-posta adresim.
And after that you give your email address.
Okay, e-posta adresim [e-mail address].
And in English my email address is [e-mail address]
This is the same sentence.
So we talked about this before.
This im at the end.
Because address means address.
And this ""im"" at the end means ""my"", Okay?
This is the first person singular possessive suffix.
My e-posta adresim.
My e-mail address.
Okay?
So this im at the end is this my of the English version.
So I would say literally e-mail address my.
Okay?
e-mail address my.
And there is no is in the sentence.
So you just say my email address.
Then you say your email address.
Okay that's it. I think this was easy.
Now you can give your email address.
email adresiniz Lütfen
Benim email adresim
E-posta adresim
Sorry, sometimes we say email as well.
We say e-posta or email.
But normally the proper one is e-posta.
E-posta adresiniz Lütfen
E-posta adresim seda@innolang.com.
