Summary/Abstract: It is seen that there is not a high level of media literacy even in societies with known high literacy. It is inevitable that there are many reasons here, as well as the effect of language. The aim of this research is to reveal the effect of language on media literacy. While media literacy is increasing day by day in virtual environments, the language issue is gaining importance. Thanks to the rapid change in new communication technologies, media literacy has also had a digital role. The fact that the language on the Internet is English is thought to bring some difficulties in societies whose mother tongue is not English. In this study, the effect of language on media literacy was tried to be revealed by using fuzzy clustering analysis.
