Thank you for downloading Sohbet 1, Turkish Interview
Questions for beginner Turkish language learners!
Sohbet 1 is a speaking practice book for beginner Turkish
language learners with basic conversation questions to practice
and improve their Turkish speaking and listening skills.
The book is very easy to use. Simply study and ask the questions
to Turkish speaking friends or your Turkish teacher, if you are
studying with a teacher, and listen to their answers. Asking
questions is important if you are learning a new language

but also you can have the chance to practice the grammar points
and the words and phrases you have learned.

Asking questions is a good conversation starter, so we are using
Turkish conversation questions in our lessons.
• The instructor sends the learner conversation questions.
• The learner reads and studies the questions before the
class.
• The learner starts asking the questions because he/she
needs to listen to the instructior's answers as a model.
• The instructor asks questions this time, extends the
questions, introduces new vocabulary and idioms etc.
