I a trying to earn how to spell and construct Turkish words. Could someone please explain to me why 25 dollars a meter is "Metresi 25 dolar". I do not understand the meaning of the si at the end of metre. Another one is why is Four times a month "Ayda dört kere". Again I don´t understand the "da" at the and of ay. One more before I go, why is there an i at the end of her şey in the sentence "Her şeyi daha temiz yapti."? Thank you so much! I am sure I can bring you many more questions later. 
Metresi 25 dolar.
-si is the accusative (direct object) form. (The ´s´ is a buffer letter here.) Literally it means something like "the meter belongs to/is possessed by/IS THE DIRECT OBJECT OF 25 dollars"
Ayda dört kere.
-da here means "in": Four times in a month.
saat yedide = at seven o´clock
burada = (in) here
fabrikada = in the factory.
evde = in the house, at home
Her şeyi daha temiz yapti. = He/she made everything cleaner (more clean).
her şey = everything (nominative) - the form used if "everything" is the subject
her şey-i = everything (accusative form) - the form used when "everything" is the
direct object, as in our example.
Eg. telefon-u kulanıyor = he is using the telephone (direct object = accusative form)
