Ready phrases with audio
Listen to every phrase in Turkish at normal or slow speed and repeat it aloud with speech recognition.

FAQ

What level is this course for?
A1–A2: for those who are starting out or already know a little Turkish from trips or TV series. Every phrase has a translation and audio, and the rules are explained in plain words. Complete beginners can do it too: take each lesson more slowly and listen more.
Which situations are in the course?
Airport check-in, passport control and customs, hotel check-in, problems with the room, café and restaurant, bus, dolmuş and taxi, finding your way, shopping and bargaining at the bazaar, the pharmacy and emergencies, meeting other travellers. Plus tips on how to behave: buyurun and rica ederim, how Turks say goodbye, tipping and duty pharmacies.
How does the AI role-play work?
The AI plays a person in the situation — a receptionist, a waiter, a cashier, a border officer — and says a line in Turkish (you can listen to it). You reply in Turkish by text or voice. The AI gives a score out of 10, praises what went well, fixes mistakes and shows a more natural answer. A good sample answer is always there, even without the AI.
Do I need a special keyboard?
No. When you type a word, the course accepts it without Turkish letters (cay for çay, kapi for kapı) and shows the correct spelling right after the check.
What is free and what do I pay for?
Day 1 — airport check-in with phrases, a dialogue and a role-play — is completely free: just sign in with email or Google. The other 9 days unlock after one payment of $15, no subscription.
How do I pay? Can I pay from abroad?
Yes: with a Visa or Mastercard from any bank and country, Apple Pay or Google Pay (monobank payments). The amount is charged in hryvnias at the NBU rate; your bank converts it to your currency.
Will I finish before my trip?
A lesson takes about 15 minutes. You can do two or three a day if your trip is soon. The course stays with you forever, so you can review the situation you need right before you go.
