I'm currently trying really hard to construct some simple sentences. The best way I am finding to do this is to try and translate simple things I would say to my dog!!!

Does this make sense???

"Floss, kanepeden inin"

(Floss is the name of one of my dogs)

if you're very polite and formal with your dog, then it's ok to say "Floss kanepeden inin." like "Mr. Floss, please get off from the canape!"

But I suggest you "Floss, kanepeden in!"

or say,

"Floss, in ordan!" (get off from there!)
"Floss, aşağı in!" (get down!)
"Floss, in aşağı!"
"Floss, aşağıya in"
"Floss, in aşağıya"
"Floss, aşağı!"
"Floss, aşağıya!"

Ah!!!

"Floss, in ordan!" is OK but "Floss, aşağı in!" has a different meaning as "get down" means lie down on the floor to Floss.

oh, ok maybe in english it's so, but you can use "in aşağı" or "in aşağıya" here in the same context as "get off" if you want your dog to get off the canape.

"Get down" and "lie down" are two different things.
Be careful...she may misunderstand
