If went to a bar wanting two beers, could I say:
lütfen, iki biralar istiyorum

If I wanted to specify that I wanted Efes beer where would I add the brand name? Would this be correct:
lütfen, iki Efes biralar istyorum

Speaking from experience!
Once you utter the magic word 'Efes' nothing else matters.

anyway, if you were down poob! You would say to the Barman in The Lass O'Gowrie "Two Stella Artois beers please" would you? I mean they would think you were a right plonker!

"According to me Efes is definately the best beer"

How do you know where my local watering hole is lol

OK - so that was a bad example........
Let's assume that "Sometoolco" is a company that makes hand tools such as hammers and screwdrivers. I walk into a hardware store and want a hammer made by Sometoolco rather than a hammer made by Tool'r'Us !!!

Where would I add "Sometoolco" into the sentence
çekiç istiyorum lütfen ???

Would it be:
Sometoolco çekiç istiyorum lütfen

Sorry Bod, I just couldn't resist a little gentle 'alay etmedin'
Sooooo....I'll see you in the Lass O'Gowrie at about 8 pm tomorrow night then? For an Efes or three?
