Quoting turkishcobra

 

 

 

1) When you use "birkaç" before a noun, you can´t use plural suffix.

 

Few houses: birkaç ev

Fe students: birkaç öğrenci

etc..

 

2) We commonly use "kelime" instead of "söz" for "word" noun.

 

3) If something has got a mistake, we say "hatalı".

 

You are writing with mistakes in Turkish.

 

Türkçeyi hatalı yazıyorsun.

 

Yazmak is a dative verb; that´s why I used "-i" suffix. (y is connection character.

thx. By the way, I didn´t know language names weren´t private, sorry.)

Thanks for the explanations.

Quoting upsy_daisy

 

 

We don´t use apostrophe for language names.

Türkçede,Türkçeyi,Türkçenin, etc.

 

It is not about language names, it is about the words made with "yapım eki":

 

Özel adlara getirilen yapım ekleri, çokluk eki ve bunlardan sonra gelen diğer ekler kesmeyle ayrılmaz: Türklük, Türkleşmek, Türkçü, Türkçülük, Türkçe, Müslümanlık, Hristiyanlık, Avrupalı, Avrupalılaşmak, Aydınlı, Konyalı, Bursalı, Ahmetler, Mehmetler, Yakup Kadriler, Türklerin, Türklüğün, Türkleşmekte, Türkçenin, Müslümanlıkta, Hollandalıdan, Hristiyanlıktan, Atatürkçülüğün. (from tdk)

 

i.e.

The derivational affixes ,plural suffixes, and other suffixes added after them, are NOT separated with an apostrophe from any private name.
