My Daily Routine in Turkish: Natural Intermediate-Level Conversation

Day 28

Hi, guys!

Today we are gonna have a short lesson about crimes!

We are going to study new words and grammar. And as homework you will have some exercises.
Let’s go.

Crime is a very interesting topic, and a bad guy who takes your money or kills someone we can call a criminal, a felon or a culprit. This guy usually commits a crime.

Okay, so a criminal, a felon or a culprit commits a crime.

What other crimes should we know?

Bribery. Bribery is a crime when one person gives money to get an illegal service. For example, a person gives a doctor 1000$ to make fake papers. When you make fake papers, we call it forgery. 

Okay, bribery, to give a bribe.

Next word is blackmail. If he wanted to give a bribe, but his doctor refused, he can blackmail him. It means that he writes: “If you don’t do what I want, I will ruin your life”. He threatens this person.

Blackmail, to blackmail, blackmailer.


If this person doesn’t listen to this guy, he starts stalking him. He becomes a stalker. He follows him every minute. He wants to get what he’s asking for.

Finally the police arrest him. He is a criminal and he’s behind bars. 

People start talking about him:

“-It is said that he is a criminal
-yes, he is said to be a blackmailer and stalker. He also gave a bribe!”

If you look at these sentences you can see a very good grammar structure.

Let's take a closer look.

For example, we say  “She is a teacher.” We can also say “it is said that she is a teacher” or “sh is said to be a teacher” 

It is said she is beautiful
She is said to be beautiful.


Practise these sentences at home and ask me for correct answers in messages.

He is smart. 
He is a felon. He gives a bribe.
She is a stalker. She stalks him every day.
Criminals commit crimes. 
Bob is a felon. He blackmails people.
Susue is a criminal. She blackmails people and gives bribes.

That’s it guys. If yo9u liked this podcast, and this lesson you can book a trial lesson with me!
