If you want to have a speaking fluency with basic grammar rules and vocabulary, Pimsleur Turkish education sets might be useful.

You can use Duolingo, for learning grammar + vocabulary + pronunciation, and you can also track your fluency percentage. You can learn almost every language there. :)

@John Thank you for the comment. I know exactly what you mean. But there is something here, I learnt English grammar by reading about the rules in Persian. And used the rules to make up my own sentences trying to communicate my mean, i.e. the semantic I had in my mind! As you mentioned translation is a bad strategy to use and I totally agree with you. I want to do the same thing: understand the rules and use them rather than using translation. By the way, my mother tongue is Azeri and it is a close sister of Turkish, and I hope it helps me learn Turkish like native speakers! We use Nerdevan for lader, and we have yerıyen /jerijæn/ for almost the same concept. But for escalator we use the word from Persian language, i.e. lone word, just change the pronunciation. I fully understand your point. Your example is reminiscent of idioms or phrasal verbs in English in which the meaning of parts is different from the meaning of the whole

You can not Learn Turkish Grammar in English. You have to learn Turkish Grammar in Turkish. Obviously, as a beginner with no Turkish language skills, you will automatically use English or your native language to refer back to. This never works Turkish is its own language and you must learn to think in Turkish as quickly as possible. Remember this "always" Turkish is very much a phrasal language with its own peculiar logical thought processes. Attempting to translate back and forth from English to Turkish. Or from any Language to Turkish is a recipe for disaster. A good example is in Turkey on the metro you do not use the escalators you use the "walking ladder or stairs" (same word in Turkish for stairs and ladder ) = MERDIVEN. Yürüyen = walking escalator ="yürüyen merdiven".
