The official language for the Turkish Republic is Turkish and only Turkish. Therefore, all documents issued by the Turkish Consulate are in Turkish. All power of attorney documents are in Turkish language.
In each Power of Attorney application process at the Turkish Consulate, there two parties: the first party is the Turkish Consulate officer who acts as a Turkish Notary Public and the second party is YOU. If you cannot read, understand and verbally respond to the Turkish Consulate officer’s questions, you have to bring a Turkish <-> English translator with you to the Turkish Consulate.

If you speak so-so Turkish, you have to bring a Turkish <-> English translator with you. A power of attorney document includes sensitive information. If you are NOT able to read and understand the power of attorney text, you have to bring a translator with you.
