Speaking Turkish

[claire]

Hi All,

Husband and I are arriving in a few weeks time...  How much Turkish should we be attempting to learn?  How much is needed, and how much is appreciated? (in other words, is it worth learning?)

Thanks, Claire.

None is needed,every little bit is appreciated,learn as much as you can and you will have a good laugh and
come back knowing more turkish than you went with,its well worth the effort to learn the basics.
