The aim of this study is to examine the
difficulties for Turkish students while learning Spanish as a foreign language.
It is also aimed to exhibit the
origin of the difficulties that appear when these students intend to learn some
grammar units of Spanish. The corpus of the study consists of 100 questionnaires
and written exams realized by Turkish students which come from a different
group of language compared to Spanish. The mentioned group has been students of
Cervantes Institute in Istanbul of Level C1. The study analyzes some
grammatical units and other parts of the sentence in which the Turkish speaking
group repeatedly makes
mistakes. The same grammar units are asked in fill in the blanks questions and
also in translation skills part. The results for the same grammar topics are similar. It is also
examined the effect of the difference between the students’ native language and
the targeted language. Moreover some PhD Thesis and articles about Spanish
learning for Turkish speakers are investigated and presented with their
recommendations about the subject in the related part of the paper. The
findings demonstrate that Spanish, being a Latin language is difficult to learn
for the Turkish students for its distant grammar rules. To overcome the
mentioned difficulties some arrangements have to be done in the Spanish as a
Foreign Language classroom.
