Abstract

With the existence of human beings on earth, certain needs have emerged. In addition to basic needs such as nutrition and shelter, communication has become one of the biggest needs. People living in different geographies communicated with each other for many reasons and started to learn each other's languages in order for this communication to be healthy and understandable. Thus, the number of foreign language learners has increased day by day. In fact, factors related to the structural and socio-cultural differences between languages make learning difficult at the stages of foreign language learning.
