So how is english in Azerbaijan?
Or maybe german.

Can a normal turkish person understand azeri language?

We speak almost the same language with turks soo your friend wouldn face with any problem with that here. Your friend can find some azeri speaking programs in youtube and see whether it is easy to understand our language or not for him.

 

[Narmina]

Yes guys, as thought mentioned there will be no problem at all with English. In Baku lots of people understand it. Also Russian and Turkish will be suitable too.
