THREE FUN FACTS ABOUT TURKISH

1. The Turkish language is part of the Turkic languages

The Turkish language was first spoken in Mongolia, before being strongly influenced by Arabic and Persian. Turkish was then reformed in the 20th century.

2. The Turkish language has some tongue twisters

Tongue twisters are present in most languages and Turkish is no exception. For example: "Bir berber bir berbere: gel berber beraber Berberistan’da bir berber dükkanı açalım demiş" – A barber told another barber “come barber, let’s start up a joint barbershop in Barberistan”.

3. Turkish has around 75 million native speakers

The Turkish speakers are mainly in Turkey and the surrounding countries. Thanks to a large Turkish diaspora, Turkish is spoken in more than 30 countries where it is not an official language, including Germany with two million Turkish speakers.
