Sadly I can only read the words from numbers 19 to 24, as the resolution on the other questions is too poor. Can anyone else see this completely clearly?

If you wait a couple of seconds, the pictures clear up - they just need some time to load.

Thanks for taking a look! I appreciate.

Unfortunately I only have slow internet speed at the moment, and I wouldn´t have been able to help anyway. But as a learner these exercises are useful to test my understanding. Thanks for adding them, and thanks also to the others who more importantly make the corrections. Smile

Thanks, MrsBee! Keep on showing your exercises here. At least I benefit from them and I´m sure there are many more learners who feel the same.

I see this structure a lot but actually I never understood it. From the examples here it seems to me that it means something like ´being in the process of doing something´. Am I right? (I am getting very suspicious of the Turkish verb to be. There seems to be much more to it than it looks in the first sight.)

I guess it´s more like:

- to pretend doing something (eylem + gibi yapmak)

- to look like doing something (eylem + gibi olmak)

- to be about to do something (gelecek zaman - ecek + olmak)

- to take the habit of doing something (geniş zaman - ar + olmak)

- happened to do something (rivayet - miş + olmak)

I am not so sure though, I couldn´t go to class today, that´s why I need some help with the homework.

You have to use present tense instead of future tense in these exercises (not everywhere). Future tense is also meaningful but it seems sometimes weird. Sometimes  present and future are both okay. In a few examples present seems weird. To prefer present is better.

 

Example: Onu görür gibi oldum. (correct)

Onu görecek gibi oldum (weird)

Faruk I think to prefer using present tense is less problematic than using future tense. But I also wonder the opinions of scalpel and tunci. I am not sure which one is better gramatically. But as I said I would prefer present tense in most cases.

Yes, could be. But I prefer future tense... I don´t think it is a real problem.

What part of the grammar do those sentences cover?

I was going to ask MrsBee where she got the practice sentences from but I see they are from class. The only "lessons" I have access to are the ones here or other Turkish language websites. But I have submitted a few practice lessons here, the ones that you write your answers, however no one ever seems to check them or do any kind of checking except in forum topics.

Mavili, if you want to study in the net, you basically have to be your own teacher. You must find out what your problem is and figure out possible solutions and ways to practice. It seems that nobody checks the exercises in the Classes-section here, but once you bring your topic to the forums, you will get knowledgeable help. The problem is, how to find the right questions...

If you take a look (you probably have already) at www.turkishlanguage.co.uk, you will see how Mr. John Guise has taught himself. He started from preschool children´s books and street signs, tried to discuss with a vocabulary of forty words. In the end he teaches other people: Manisa is one of the best sites for learning Turkish grammar in the net, maybe the best.

Material is everywhere. Everything is material. Of course if you have a native speaker lying on your sofa its a benefit, but there are many roads that can lead you to the goal.

Oh yes, Mr. Guise´s Manisa Turkish was one of the first websites I started taking notes from little over a year ago. Really nicely organized, and full of information however, he does not provide a way to converse with him or anyone else using the site to study. 

I made my own practice sentences in English with each type of grammar then tried to write them in Turkish. But that started to become time consuming having to take time and think of corresponding sentences before I could begin to think of the Turkish. Plus I don´t think the sentences were always accurate and I had no one to check my answers.

And my time to study Turkish was and still is limited due to both my job and I am also taking graphic design classes, and those have to come first. So having found this site  has been great because of the lessons and good help on the forums. Also I wish I had my Türk BF here on my sofa!{#emotions_dlg.lol_fast} (He helps me a little, but he lives in Turkey so I can´t talk to him everyday.)
