Turkish levels on the CEFR scale

What A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2 mean — and what you can do at each level.

  1. A1 · Beginner

    You understand and use simple phrases: you can introduce yourself, talk about yourself and ask the way.

  2. A2 · Elementary

    You communicate in simple everyday situations — shops, cafés, travel — and talk about the past and your plans.

  3. B1 · Intermediate

    You keep up a conversation on familiar topics, give your opinion and understand the gist of films and articles.

  4. B2 · Upper-Intermediate

    You talk freely with native speakers, discuss complex topics and can work in Turkish.

  5. C1 · Advanced

    You use the language flexibly and precisely for work and study, and understand implied meaning and style.

  6. C2 · Proficiency

    You speak almost like a native speaker: you understand everything and express fine shades of meaning.

The CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) is the international scale used to describe levels in any European language in textbooks, schools and exams.

How the test works

  1. A ladder of levels

    We start at A1 and move up while your answers are confident (at least 4 of 6). A beginner finishes in a few minutes; an advanced learner answers all 30 questions.

  2. Three skills

    Each level has 3 grammar questions, 2 vocabulary questions and a short reading text.

  3. An honest result

    An “I don’t know” button instead of guessing, and at the end every mistake is explained.

  4. The rest with a teacher

    Only a person can assess speaking, pronunciation and listening — in a live lesson with a teacher.

FAQ

Didn’t find your answer? Send us a request — we’ll tell you everything.

How long does the test take?

Usually 5–15 minutes. The test is adaptive: it ends as soon as the questions get too hard for you. There is no time limit.

Is the test free? Do I need to sign up?

The test is completely free with no sign-up. You see your result right after the last question, and your answers are not sent anywhere — they stay in your browser.

How accurate is the result?

The test gives an estimate of your Turkish level on the CEFR scale (A1–C1) in grammar, vocabulary and reading. Only a teacher can assess speaking and listening, in a live lesson.

Is the test suitable for children?

The test is for teenagers aged 12 and over and for adults. Younger children’s level is best assessed through games with a teacher.

What should I do after the test?

Look through your mistakes: they show which topics to revise. If you’d like to study with a teacher, leave a request — your test result is added to it automatically.

Can I take the test again?

Yes, as many times as you like. If you close the page in the middle of the test, your progress is saved in your browser and you can continue where you left off.

What level of Turkish do I need to study or work in Turkey?

A2 is enough for travel and everyday life. Universities that teach in Turkish usually ask for a TÖMER or TYS certificate (the Yunus Emre Institute exam) at C1; some accept B2. Customer-facing jobs need B1 or higher.

Is Turkish hard to learn?

Reading is easy: it uses the Latin alphabet and every letter always sounds the same. What’s unusual is that words are built from suffixes (ev-ler-im-de, “in my houses”), the verb goes at the end, and a suffix’s vowel depends on the word’s vowel. On the other hand, there are no genders and very few exceptions.

Rules in plain words — with tables, examples and a quiz in every topic.
