Hey, I'm really confused now. Ofcourse as it's your own language, you can't be wrong. But I remember as at school they always taught as to put adverbs in the end of the sentence, I walk slowly, I live happily etc.



I'm not an English native speaker, but what you say sounds very good to me!! I think you could say 'I slowly walked home' for example if you would really want to stress that you didn't rush at all. But 'I walk slowly' sounds perfectly fine to me!



'I walk slowly' - is fine. But for the previous sentence it is better English to say 'I walked home slowly'
(I think anyway!?)

iyi cesaret vermek dusunurum



Something about "to give good encouragement" but what does dusunurum mean??? I assume it is a verb but can't find the infinitive in the dictionary

dusunmek to think but i said dusunurum = i think bu yanlis mumkun yine



Can you be a bit clearer? I don't get it :-S

i am using dusunurum in the present tense and i am saying its possible wrong again i am only a begginner



Then it would be "düşÃ¼nüyorum", "I think". But what is "mumkun"?
