Absolutely loving the class. Have completed the 1st set of homework and have done so much better than I thought I would. My hubby (who is Turkish) offered to help me with my homework, to which I refused (otherwise, how on earth will I learn) and I got it right....all by myself I´m amazed!!! Thanks Gencturk, you´re a great teacher, I´ve learnt more this week than all the months trying to teach myself !!!

Adding ´e´ (or ´a´ = see vowel rules) means ´to´ in English. So the example
çorap + e --> çoraba means ´to the sock´. (I know this because my teacher explained it to me, , I had difficulties as well with it.) Mind you: p, ç, t and k as last letter change into b, c, d and ğ when you add a suffix starting with a vowel like here!

Back vowels are.... a, ı, o, u
Front vowels are.....e, i, ö, ü
İts accourding to where you pronounce them
Homework asks you to say which can be followed by which
As in the example,
a or ı is followed by a or ı
So,e or i is followed by .....
And so on
