Thank you Catwoman,

 

That´s very helpful.  Not reached that part of my lesson yet. I think I understand now.

{#lang_emotions_bigsmile} 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 {#lang_emotions_satisfied_nod} 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, lol, 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
