The Turkish language is one of the most passionate languages in the world and its beauty lies in its words. The Turkish language is estimated to be made out of a total of 150000 words with the largest Turkish dictionary having over 100000 words. This can seem a really big and frightening number to someone wanting to start learning Turkish, but here's the good news: you only need to know roughly 5% of the total words to be fluent in Turkish. What’s even more encouraging is that knowing as little as 100 words helps you understand half of the words in an article or book written in Turkish.
Learn the most common 1000 words and you get to a 75% understanding of texts in Turkish. Also, each new word you learn helps you guess the meaning of up to 50 words you have never seen before. This means that knowing only 1000 words helps you guess up to 50000 Turkish words. Doesn't seem that frightening now, right?
