Quoting slavica:

Londra buluşmasına geliyor musun?
Lond-ra bu-luş-ma-sı-na ge-li-yor mu-sun?
Can I have the third bonus now?



I reckon you have cracked that one
Hopefully erdinc will confirm when he returns from work!

I indeed better read the explanation first Feeling's not always the best, eh?

Yeah i think you cracked it too? Because Londra seems to fall under rule 3 as well, if i read well enough.


Work well, Erdinc!

Daydreamer,
you got 16 right and you have a bonus now.

slavica,
perfectly solved the mystery for 15. This makes three bonuses and you too are now a master of syllabling.

deki kızın,
you have 2 bonuses.

I hope these small exercises help pronouncing the words easier.
As Bod perfectly understood a different approach is to understand the syllable types. When looking at the syllable types it becomes clear that rule 3 could be omited since there is no syllable type which begins with two consonants.

I'm happy you are enjoying this. I like it too. By the way are there any volunteers to take my place on this? Seriously you can send a PM if you are a native Turkish speaker and want to help on this.

OK, lets continue:

exercise 19:
Çocuklar futbol oynuyorlar.

exercise 20:
Futbol oynayan çocukları seyrediyorum.

exercise 21:
-Bu güzel bir bisiklet. Bisiklete binmeyi seviyor musun?
-Evet, seviyorum.

Çocuklar futbol oynuyorlar.

Ço-cuk-lar fut-bol oy-nu-yor-lar.

exercise 20:
Futbol oynayan çocukları seyrediyorum.

Not fair to be so fast, bod
Oh, boşver, being a master, I have, anyway, no more right to syllable

Would you like to try for yourself:

exercise 22:
Futbol on bir kişiyle oynanan bir oyundur.

exercise 23:
Pek çok kişi futbol izlerken bira içmeyi seviyor.

exercise 24:
Bira içmek insanı daha şişman yapıyor.

O.K. Anybody interested?
Deli_kizin, you need one more bonus to become master, will you try?
Or you'll let me do this and make me double master?

Hello everyone,
I just saw this. Do I need to start from beginning?
This is very interesting and helpful.
Good Idea, Erdinc.
