Paying a visit to the supermarket is inevitable for all of us, and moving to a new country like Turkey where people speak a totally different language makes the shopping process harder especially when needing help.
That is why, in this blog post, I have composed the most important basic Turkish sentences and questions that you should know. Keep in mind that you might need to change some words according to the conversation you are conducting but the structure of the Turkish sentence will be similar.
If you like to listen to this conversation, and see how the Turkish words are pronounced then you can watch the below video.
