Thanks

 

 -dikçe, -dıkça, -dukça  meaning is "as long as"

 

As long as the seas exist.   Denizler varoldukça (var olduğu sürece)

As long as you love me.  Sen beni sevdikçe (sevdiğin sürece)

As long as join the lesson.  Derslere katıldıkça (katıldığın sürece)

There is a previous post about it here

and one of my textbooks also mentions a special meaning for 2 words

gittikçe = gradually

oldukça = rather, quite, somewhat

and some example sentences from the same book -

İstasyona yaklaştıkça koşmaya başladı

He started running as he approached the station

Buna baktıkça beni hatırlasınız

Whenever you look at this you will remember me

Bu yemeği yedikçe yemek istiyorum

The more I eat this food/dish, (the more) I want to eat it.
