Merhaba Alper, I just want to be certain of the meaning of Ayşe´s last dialogue line: Tamam o zaman. Görüşmek üzere.
Does the first part mean something like "alright/OK, its time (to go)?
and the second part "just about to see each other (or meet)"
The rest of the dialogue was OK for me.

Tamam o zaman,i understood it like
´ok then´
At the dictionary it says,
o zaman

1. then
2. at that time

And Görüşmek üzere
Like till we meet ´see you later´
Something like that
Yes?

I read it as ..
ok then see you later.

as a general statement between friends.

Thanks CANLI and Leelu. It is also very helpful to see Erdinc´s answers to your other questions CANLI.

hello,
i just wanted to know when we use -ler and when we use -lar coz i see both of them a lot and dont know the difference, does it have anything to do with vowel harmony???

thx!!!

Ler,Lar is the plural form of the word

İn English its ´ S ´

Car...cars
Araba...arabalar


When do we use lar,and when do we use ler...its accourding to the vowel harmony rule...
Meaning,

We divide vowels to soft and hard
Round and flat

There are soft voices and hard voices in the vowels

E,İ,Ãœ,Ö ....are the soft ones

A,I,U,O.... are the hard ones...

Try it yourself and pronounce them one by one ..ehhmmm correctly of course
You will understand it yourself why they are called this way

Round vowels as you may know,are
O,Ö,Ü,U

Flat vowels are
İ,I,E,A

And also when you pronounce it yourself you will get it...
Your lips shap is round when you pronounce the round ones,and flat when you pronounce the flat ones

The vowel harmony rules,are concern with the harmony of the words.
Same meaning as harmony in the music,harmony in the colours
Here its harmony of the words sounds,no ups and downs.

So,we dont put flat vowel at the same word with round vowel
We dont mix soft vowels with hard vowels

So coming to the,LAr,LEr issue,plural case

When the last vowel of the word contain hard voice....we add lAr suffix

When the last vowel of the word contain soft voice...we add lEr suffix

Examples,

Araba...arabalAr
Ev....EvlEr
Konu....konulAr

Wish that helps
