10 Great Words to Know in English (& Turkish!)

10/2/2015

I have so many favourite (favori) words that the "Great Words to Know" section will definitely become a regular feature (tekrarlayan bölüm) of the Etudist blog...

As you probably know from my simpleandsplendid.com blog...I love all things beautiful and visually pleasing/appealing (göze hoş gelen). Of course beauty is a subjective concept (kişiden kişiye değişen, kişisel kavram)....but people seem to like my selections (seçimlerimi) and often I get compliments (iltifat) on the fonts (yazı karakterleri) I use for different projects.

Honestly, I really do have a little bit of a font-fetish (yazı karakteri bağımlılığı).

Read on to see which words made my first TOP TEN LIST...ANDDDD take a look at some of my favourite fonts. At the end I will give you links to three of the best websites to download free fonts from.

Please let me know what your favourite words are....

AND...take a look at the following websites to download hundreds of different fonts to ENHANCE your presentations and projects:

1000 Free Fonts
Dafont
Creative Market (offers a lot more than just fonts...you will love this site!)

Dearest Derya,
I'm so excited about your new business venture and your sublime approach to teaching conversational English! We know that obvious critical success factors for mastering language skills include one's breadth of our vocabulary, attention to pronunciation/intonation and appreciation for grammar. What we neglect to honor is that 80% of the secret to language proficiency is public speaking self confidence. You have created such a clever and refreshing program for teaching English speaking skills that goes so far beyond hygienics. It really is a journey of self discovery, self expression and self effectuation - sheer genius!

Wow, you are too kind. Thank you for the great feedback! What are some of your favourite words?? Isn't it funny how some words look/seem somehow "better" in certain fonts??
