This is a place where people come to learn Turkish. Fine, no problem. But does that mean you do not need to pay much attention to English? How can one properly explain Turkish grammar without the ability to express oneself accurately in English?

I do not think I am a "guru", I do not think that you are inferior, I do not think you deserve to be punished, etc., etc. But sometimes I really become tired of prejudiced and ignorant people. AGAIN: this doesn´t mean you´re all prejudiced. Explaining things is an endless ritual in my life because people simply chose to misinterpret almost anything I do or say.

I work in aviation and I must be very precise, otherwise airplanes come falling from the sky. Having a keen eye for details is common in people with autism and for that particular reason they hired me.

 

 

 

 

 

What can we do? We know only this much English

I just keep on explaining the same thing over and over again. No problem. My whole life is one huge explanatory ritual.

It´s not about perfection. I am not a Borg or anything. "We are The Borg. Resistance is futile. You must COMPLY!" {#emotions_dlg.wtf}

 I am simply letting you know that if you are expecting perfection from any of the members of this site in any language you are going to be continually disappointed.  Members, especially the native Turkish speakers, volunteer their time here and are not professional teachers - just generous individuals.  I would hope you take the time to enjoy their teachings rather than pick them apart.

That is what I tried to tell you when I first joined this forum: be open, as a child, without prejudice. In fact, most adults can easily master any language, but they are afraid of making mistakes or afraid of speaking in public. Children experiment. They make mistakes and then try something else if it doesn´t work. Change your learning strategy. If you think: I can not do it, you will never be able to progress in the first place!

Why not create an English language class as well?

 

 

Why don´t you be modest and satisfy with what you get?

You don´t pay for it and you still complain. You can hire a teacher if you want. We don´t force you to come here.

we are not Borg either so the same applies to us, if we must comply and accomidate your "quirks" then the same is expected of you with our "quirks"

Where did I write: I want to deliberately complain? I do not experience myself complaining. I never complain, actually.

Sorry my bad
