Azeri lessons started in ernest today, and it is interesting already. There are some similarities to english, but it could be a long time before getting fluent in this language! We learned the alphabet (36 characters) and all their sounds--there are several sounds that do not have any english equivalent-and some simple greetings. “Salam, manim aduhm John dur.” Hello, my name is John--except the “is” comes after John and it sounds like my name is John Deere. Welcome to Azerbaijan.
