Hi everyone,

It is widely agreed that speaking Turkmen is essential for a successful integration in Turkmenistan. Do you agree? Share your experience!

Do you speak Turkmen? If so, where did you learn this language? Where can one attend a language course in Turkmenistan?

If not, how do you cope with daily activities? Is it easy to communicate in a different language with Turkmens?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla

I speak Turkmen however if you speak Russian is good enough as Russian is like as second language spoken by locals in Turkmenistan.

Yes, Russian had been also official language of Turkmenistan before and even after independence of Turkmenistan in 1991. But know there are 5% Russians who also speak Turkmen. It is better to learn Turkmen as a first priority and if you understand Russian that will make you able to talk almost 100% population.

I agree majority of Turkmen people speak Turkmen. Russian is second language mostly undetstood in Turkmenistan. English is not so common.

Dear Dovlet.

Thanks for the participation. You are Turkmen and Turkmen is your language. Everbody has his own language.

Sometimes people like to learn a second language. Some people learn more than two languagrs. If someone likes to live in your great country then he must learn Turkmen langue so that he can communicate with other persons.
