Writing in Turkish Mistakes made by Turkish People 🇹🇷 Of course we are fluent in speaking (according to who? 😄) and have almost no trouble understanding each other while talking. But we may have trouble with grammar and spelling like many native language speakers around the world. So there you go! You can even correct your Turkish friend and feel a second hand embarrassment if they make one of these mistakes when you’re texting each other. 😏 Birçok - a lot/ many Birbiri - each other Birkaç - a few/ several When it’s written as ‘bir çok’, ‘bir biri’ and ‘bir kaç’ with space between these two words it literally means: ‘one much’, ‘one whom’ and ‘one how much’. Which is almost meaningless in written context. That’s why we cannot separate conjoined words and also cannot trust our ‘autocorrect’ in our keyboards. 😅 Which languages you know also have something similar to this? 🧐
