Turkish language class occupies our weekday mornings, taught by Selcuk Bey from TOMER. He repeatedly reminds us that ”Türkçe çok kolay” = “Turkish is very easy.” True, the rules are regular with few exceptions, but English speakers struggle with sentences where the verbs belong at the end, and where those verbs are composed of strings of suffixes for person, tense, interogation, and negation. However, after only a week and a half of intensive work, sentences begin to come together.
