A1 LESSON 2 NUMBERS (SAYILAR)

 

NUMBERS (SAYILAR)

        Merhaba let's learn a fundamental aspect of Turkish: the numbers. In Turkish,  numbers are called "sayılar". Here is how you count from 1-10:

        1: bir
        2: iki
        3: üç
        4: dört
        5: beş
        6: altı
        7: yedi
        8: sekiz
        9: dokuz
        10: on








        Now that you are familiar with the numbers 1-10, let's expand your vocabulary to include numbers up to 20. This will help you in many daily situations, like telling time or shopping.
In Turkish, the numbers 11 through 19 are formed by simply adding the word for ten, "on" in front of the numbers 1 through 9. Here is how it goes:

        11: on bir
        12: on iki
        13: on üç
        14: on dört
        15: on beş
        16: on altı
        17: on yedi
        18: on sekiz
        19: on dokuz
        20: yirmi

        Example usage:

        on dört kitap (fourteen books)
        yirmi lira (twenty liras)

        Now, let's learn greater numbers! Three-digit numbers and beyond in Turkish. As we move into larger numbers, the pattern remains consistent. Here are some examples:

        Three-Digit Numbers:

        100: Yüz
        200: İki yüz 
        300: Üç yüz
        …
        900: Dokuz yüz 

        Combining Tens and Units:

        456: Dört yüz elli altı
        789: Yedi yüz seksen dokuz 
        123: Yüz yirmi üç 

        Thousands and Beyond:

        1.000: Bin
        10.000: On bin
        100.000: Yüz bin 
        1.000.000: Bir milyon
