200 Most Common Turkish Verbs in Context - 2nd Edition by Halit Demir (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

200 MOST COMMON TURKISH VERBS IN CONTEXT provides the most common Turkish verbs in context with conjugation tables and practice exercises. The 200 verbs were compiled by consulting Turkish frequency dictionaries and books for learners of Turkish.

The case suffixes required by these verbs are also provided. Each verb in the list is illustrated in 4 or 5 sentences. The example sentences are largely made up of the verbs introduced previously. The structured presentation enables you to recycle the verbs you have already studied. If you want to study a specific verb, you can easily find it from the index.

In addition, almost every verb in the list contains further meaning relationships. For example, for the verb konuşmak (to speak), these words from the same root are listed: konuşma (speech), konuşmacı (speaker), konuşkan (talkative).

And the following expressions: konuşma yapmak (to make a speech), havadan sudan konuşmak (to talk about this and that) and saçma sapan konuşmak (to talk nonsense). This means that you will learn many more words and expressions besides the 200 verbs.

You will also find lots of useful tips on spelling, pronunciation and grammar

What is new in the 2nd edition?

Firstly, the second edition has a larger paper size, more pages and a new cover. Secondly, from the second page onwards, you will find an empty conjugation table on each page, which you can use to practise the conjugation of the verb on the previous page. You will also find a two-page exercise after each set of 10 verbs. The exercises on the first page test the verbs and their required case suffixes in the sentence. Those on the second page tests the nouns, adjectives and adverbs derived from these verbs. We have also added some new grammar tips.

You can use 200 MOST COMMON TURKISH VERBS IN CONTEXT with the books or with the apps Duolingo, Mondly, Busuu and others that you are currently using to learn Turkish.
