Which Roots & Talks character are you?

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Ahmet

Ahmet is the curly-haired boy in the striped sweater and purple overalls.

Ahmet always has a riddle in his pocket, and he cannot wait to ask it.

A Turkish word becomes a guessing game, a rhyme turns into a clue, and everyone nearby ends up laughing and learning together.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Eylül

Say hello to Eylül, the girl with two braids, an orange sweater and a blue pinafore.

Her notebook is her treasure: whenever she hears a Turkish word she loves, she writes it down so it will never get lost.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Ela

Ela is the laughing girl in pigtails who throws her arms into the air, wearing a green top and a purple skirt.

Her rule is simple: one new Turkish word every single day.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Giray

Giray, the freckled boy in the blue cap and shorts, waves hello from the Roots & Talks gang.

Whatever the task, Giray never gives up on trying again: a wobbly word, a tricky sound, a hill that feels too steep.

He takes a breath and starts over.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Defne

Defne, the smiling girl with long wavy hair, waves at you as if she has been waiting all day.

She learns Turkish through songs, humming the melody first and finding the words hidden inside it later.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Dino

Dino is the friendly green dinosaur with the blue collar, and the counting champion of Roots & Talks.

Dino counts trees, stars and clouds, and because the numbers belong to a dinosaur, they get big very fast.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Gazi

Gazi is the smiling teenager holding a football, and the sportiest of the Roots & Talks friends.

Gazi loves football and Turkish cheers: the shouts, the claps and the chants that turn a match into a festival.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Filiz

Filiz is the elephant in a yellow shirt and a pink skirt with a blue bow, and the artist of the group.

She dances and paints with her trunk, filling the room with swirls of color and a swaying rhythm.

Roots & Talks friend

Meet Pingucan

Pingucan is the penguin in the red scarf, and the biggest cheerleader of the whole group.

Every success, large or small, earns the same joyful flap of the wings.
