    Default Why does the Turkish accent sound Russian/Slavic?

    I talked to some Turkish woman today serving me coffee. I thought she was Russian so asked her in Russian "are you Russian?" and she looked at me like WTF.... Then explained she's Turkish.

    How come when Turks speak English it sounds like a Slavic accent? I'm confused

    -thanks
