Quoting sonunda:

Just one question-is number 8 not 'your house' and 'your garden' ?

They both exist in the sentence, and translation is true.

Quoting Elisa:

17. Annesi odaya girdiği gibi bebek ağlamayı bıraktı

The baby stopped crying as soon as his mother entered the room.

Could you explain the girdigi gibi part of this please?

I havent seen this construction yet. İs it interchangable with 'girer girmez' ?

That's what I was wondering too.

I thought 'as soon as' was the present and past 3rd person of the verb-e.g. ben gelir gelmez-as soon as I came

I guess so, but probably not used so much.
