I´d also like to be considered for beginner 2 classes if possible. I´m currently in Uzeyir´s beginner 1 class.

Last week I was lost! took an entire day to do the homework and i´m pretty sure i forgot numerous rules.....

This one confused me especially-

Onlar müzisyendi. Is it those were musician ? or they were musician ? How can u tell the difference?

Also do we not need to make musicians plural?

Sorry if it´s a stupid question......

 Nothing to be afraid of! Turkish men really like women- they get a little carried away perhaps, but people here are very warm and friendly. It´s an amazing country- a little like Asia, a little like Europe- if you have the chance to live here, you should be very excited!

Thx Henry! I thought i had missed part of the lesson because it seemed to be part of our homework in section 1- so that´s a relief!!

Thx, but my confusion is when to use ´te´ rather than ´de´ for example. ....

I seem to have missed something..... with locative and ablative, when do we use te, ta, ten, tan?

Hi, don´t know if this helps! but have you tried these websites for work?

  http://istanbul.craigslist.com.tr/

 http://www.mymerhaba.com/   - go to community billboard for jobs.

 They´re mostly jobs for English speakers.

Also English teaching is worth looking into!

 Yes, maybe some confusion with love and lust

Dumping is when one of you unexpectedly ends it. Usually it suggests without warning or discussion- it´s just suddenly over.

As an expat living here, I think I understand your question about Turkish men! It´s a little different to dating at home .....you only have to read the translation requests to see how it differs

This is a generalisation of course but nevertheless a common pattern my colleagues and  friends have found:

You meet ( it´s instant and intense!), he writes very romantic messages/emails declaring his overwhelming feelings, he calls constantly, he´s attentive and adoring- for about a month. Then nothing. No explanation. No contact.

He simply doesn´t call again. This is better known as being ´dumped.´

We´re used to discussing or arguing if we break up, so it´s a bit of a shock.

This has been much discussed over girls- wine- nights!

Turkish men are lovely and this is certainly not always the case- it just happens quite a lot.
