Thankyou Tunci. And congratulations on moving into 3rd place on the all-time points ranking.

I was surprised with sanmış.

I thought that would mean, she seemed to think.

Quoting tunci

Complete the blanks in the sentences below :

3) Ali iş. bırak... üç ay ol.... ---> It´s been three months now since Ali quit his job.

I´m not a native speaker, but I think it´s more correct if we use its been 3 months.... since. Since we have since

But I wonder why it´s ´oluyor´

Yes, that will sound more correct wording in English with "been". Most of the time I am focusing on Turkish sentence more than its English equivalent. May be that´s why I missed the "been" there.

"oluyor" or "oldu" both can be used in the context, however "oluyor" sounds bit more natural / exact expression or better clarification of Ali´s near past. As we are making this statement at very present moment, present -yor can suit better.
