USA 98

 

Tur 77.

 

1. Turkey played excellent in the first half.

Türkiye birinci yarımda mükemmel oynadı. 

 

2. Their second half was not so good.

Ikinci yarımı hem iyi değildi. (I used ı for possessive, I think in Turkish this is correct, meaning the team rather than they but I´m not sure)

 

3. Turkey did much better against USA than New Zeland did.

Türkiye Yeni Zelanda´dan daha iyi karşı ABD yaptı.

 

4. He must go.

O getmeli.

İlk yarıda Türkiye muhteşem oynadı.

...

my try

 

 

I see half translates to yarım, yarı. Do these 2 words mean the same/ can we use either?

Quoting denizli

 

 

I see half translates to yarım, yarı. Do these 2 words mean the same/ can we use either?

Yarım ekmek vs Ekmeğin yarısı (no difference)

Yarım elma vs Elmanın yarısı (no difference)

 

But they not always have same meaning

 

i will give you some examples:

 

Elmanın hangi yarısını istersin?

But you cant say: elmanın hangi yarımını istersin?

 

Yarım elma istiyorum

you cant say: yarı elma istiyorum.

 

Yarım elma:

Fotoğraftaki elmanın yarısı would be half of this.

 

 

 

fırıncıya gidip yarım ekmek al, aldığın ekmeğin yarısı benim olacak.

 

Yarım ekmek OR Ekmeğin yarısı

 

 

 

Yarım ekmeğin yarısı would be half of this.

 

few more examples:

10´un yarısı 5´tir.

Yirminin yarısı ondur.

insanların yarısı benim gibi düşünüyor.

Correct literally, but a more usual translation would be "we couldn´t pull ourselves together", "we couldn´t sort ourselves out"

Just want to say thanks to Kedi Nero, Tunci and Gokuyum for their help on this thread. I don´t think I´m ready to be an Sports announcer in Turkish, yet.
