bence = i think in my opinion in my view

bence oyle = i think so

bence oyle degilim= i don´t think in my opinion / in my view I am not like that

Bence

Sence

Ona göre

Bizce

Sizce

Onlara göre

Note

Third person singular is Ona göre

so you don’t use ONCA cos it means  çok,  pek çok

Third person plural is Onlara göre

Onlarca means 25, 35, 80,.....

çocuğun nasildir? nasıldır - vowel harmony rule - how is your child? You  can omit * dir  suffix cos its not used in colloquial speech

çocukların nasil dir? nasıldırlar how are your children? Iyidirler /Iyiler/ Iyi -they are well Here same You  can omit * dir  suffix also its possible to omit plural marker – ler/- lar cos the subject is already in plural çocuk-lar-in

oğlunun nasildir? nasıldır how is your son?

kızın nasildir? nasıldır how is your daughter
