This is good to know! maybe it is one of the reasons why its difficult for a beginner to islolate certain words when listening to speech.

I´m guessing this shortened form of words is a little like "is not" and "isn´t". 

 

I am aware of orada/orda, burada/burda... Are there any more common examples of words that are spoken in a shorted or abraded form?

naber  ne haber

bişi   bir şey

alasmaldık     Allah´a ısmarladık

bilmiyom/yapıyon/geliyo/yiyoz/geziyonuz/diyolar          bilmiyorum/yapıyorsun/geliyor/yiyoruz/geziyorsunuz/diyorlar   works for any verb

naapıyon    ne yapıyorsun  (sometimes even naaban or naapan)

naabam işte oturuyom      ne yapayım işte oturuyorum

naapcan    ne yapacaksın

naaptı      ne yaptı

ne biliyim / ne bilem     ne bileyim

yakşamlar    iyi akşamlar

işala        inşallah

nassın     nasılsın

meraba     merhaba

anane      anneanne

 

These are the ones I can think of. You pick ´em up as you go. Innit?
