Turkish is cool!

"Turkish is cool!

Why study Turkish?

Turkish is the official language of Turkey and Cyprus, but it is also spoken in the Balkans, varieties of the language are also spoken in Azerbaijan, Central Asia and the Caucasus. In total, it is estimated that 150 million people worldwide speak Turkish. If you are from a Turkish or Cypriot background, it is a good way to get back to your roots.

Why do it? Most students who study Turkish normally have a connection with a Turkish-speaking country and want to expand their knowledge of its language in order to work with their community in the UK or abroad in the European Union."
