Learn Turkish from scratch with Tunga — a complete Turkish language course built for one thing only: teaching Turkish. Whether you are planning a trip to Türkiye, connecting with Turkish friends and family, or diving into a rich new culture, Tunga guides you step by step from your first Turkish words to real conversations. WHY TUNGA Built only for Turkish. Not a generic app with Turkish bolted on — every lesson, example and audio track is made for Turkish learners. Learn in your own language. Tunga is fully available in English, Arabic, Russian, French, Spanish and Urdu, so grammar explanations actually make sense. WHAT YOU GET Turkish vocabulary that sticks Every word is practiced five different ways — multiple choice, listening, matching, true/false and writing — so it moves into long-term memory instead of being forgotten after one tap. Smart review system Tunga tracks each Turkish word you learn and brings it back exactly when you are about to forget it, using spaced repetition. Your daily review list is always waiting on the home screen. Turkish grammar made simple Vowel harmony, suffixes, noun sentences, question forms — explained in short, practical lessons with drag-and-drop exercises. No dense textbook chapters. Reading practice Short Turkish reading passages about everyday life, each followed by comprehension questions that build vocabulary in context. Listening practice Native Turkish audio — dialogues at the market, at the doctor, meeting new people — with questions that train your ear for real speech. Sentence building Drag Turkish words and suffixes into the right order and watch how Turkish sentences are actually put together. Everyday Turkish Greetings, shopping, family, food, directions, health, travel — the Turkish phrases you will genuinely use in Türkiye. Track your progress XP, daily streaks, levels and a leaderboard keep you coming back. Hearts keep you focused, and your learned Turkish words are always one tap away. Learning is structured by CEFR level, starting at A1 for complete beginners, with further levels unlocked by a short placement test. Start learning Turkish today — and speak like a local with Tunga.
