Gentle Introduction to TC Lingo and all that!

Postby YFred » Fri Oct 09, 2009 10:01 pm

Basic rules.
All letters are pronunced the same no matter where they are in a word. There are no exceptions on how a letter is pronounced.
First learn the Letters
Letter What it sounds like.
a as in the marble
b as in bottle.
e as in bed
n as in nun
d as in dad

Some words
baba - father
anne - mother
nene - grandmother
dede - grandfather

Thats enough for tonight.

Sorry Insan we are more educated in Lurucina. We all completed Primary school. I went to Lurucina Ilk Okulu, then Lurucina Orta Okulu, then Ambarena Lise and then finally Trahona Universite
Ana is Turkiyeli village talk.
Buba is TC but I grant you that.
