I was going to do my homework about     Homework 1: Noun States - İsmin Halleri  but i didn´t know the meaning of these words,  could you translate them lutfen

yaşıyorus

top oyunyor

duruyor 

and is park has the same meaning in english?

Hi wadjas, maybe I can help a little

park has the same meaning in Turkish and English.

top means ball

oynamak means to play

oynuyor means he/she/it is playing

yaşıyoruz means we are living

durmak means to stop/ to stay still

duruyor means he/she/it is stopping/standing

The Turkish dictionary in the left bar of this page can help translating if you know the base word

Also the first lesson in the beginners 2 group on Present Tense gives an explanation on how some of the verbs are formed that you asked about.

Hope this helps with your homework.

thanks Henry that was very helplful, I appreciate it 

 If you double click on a word, the dictionary opens up. The dictionary here is quite an ingenious invention.

Hi everybody,I hope you enjoy learning as much as I do,it´s really fun.And teacher is also very patient and helpfull.Thank you Faruk!

Now my question;homework section 5,exercise 2,second question:
Londra çok pahalı bir şehir mi?

-we can say yes or no(I think we all know how to do it ) but I´d like to know if this kind of answer is also correct:
-Yes,London isn´t (very) cheap city......Evet,Londra (çok)ucuz şehir değil.

I mean like you´re walking with a friend and looking at prices and friend says:"100 €,it´s expensive?" and your answer is:"yeah(well dud!),it´s not cheap!"

English is not my mother language and I have sometimes problems with expressing myself,but I hope you will understand me.

Well milva,we cant do it in Turkish,and seems we shouldnt do it also in English

İt´s been discussed here,check it

Thank you CANLI for your answer and link.

I am very confused now.As far as I know,we(people in general)talk to eachother in this kind of positive-negative sentences all the time(at least in my mother language we do).First we confirm fact in question(in my exsample=London is expensive city)without long and grammaticaly correct speach and then we add our  own statement (in this case =London isn´t  cheap city-because I don´t know what is for you cheap and what expensive or I can be ironic when answering to your question or I can just express my opinion).

I was looking at homework no.4(noun sent.)and there were negative sentences in same way I was trying to answer mine,but without yes or no.Now I wonder if I wrote it down like this,would it be correct??
Evet. Londra (çok) ucuz bir şehir değil.

If this is correct then why the first one wasn´t??In speach you don´t say"comma,stop,slash...",you just talk .

Hi all,

does anybody know what happened to our teacher Faruk?He didn´t evaluate (my) our 2 previouse assignments?
