Turkish Phrases Audio Part 2

author Posted by: nick on date Oct 30th, 2008 | filed Filed under: Learning Tools, turkish phrases

I’m finding more nice bits of audio to share with you from the Türkçe Öğreniyorum podcast.  Here is the audio and my transcription/translation of another Turkish greeting interaction:

Learning Turkish part 2

Ahmet: Merhaba.  Benim adım Ahmet.
(Hello.  My name is Ahmet.)

Ayşe: Merhaba.  Ben de Ayşe.  Memnun oldum.
(Hello.  And I’m Ayşe.  Pleased to meet you.)

Ahmet: Ben de memnun oldum.
(I’m pleased to meet you too.)

  1. Jacky Said,

    Ben de Ayse means: I am also Ayse!
    So it should be: Ben Ayse!

  2. nick Said,

    Jacky,
    Those were Turks who said it, so I’m guessing they said it right. (I’m assuming you aren’t a native speaker yourself.) But you’re right, de/da usually means also. Here I’m thinking it means “and” or “as for.”
