Great idea Erdinc. Congratulation on this one but...would it be possible for you to come up with something a bit more advanced? I guess we have quite a number of people here who'd really appreciate it.

Hello Daydreamer,
I have 3 more of these kind stories and they are all relatively easy considering your level. We would like to simplify some books from Turkish Literature but it is and time consuming a difficult job, yet we are working on it.

As an alternative, have a look on these kid's stories. There are about 30 of them:

Thank you. I had a quick look at them and I'm sure that when I finally have some time I'll read them. Children stories are good because of the language used but the narrative itself isn't very interesting (at least for people at my age) so I am looking forward to seeing the abridged versions of Turkish literature you mentioned. Meanwhile I am struggling to read short stories by Ahmet Umit, Omer Ayhan, Hakan Gunday and many others I got as a freebie buying Turkish Cosmo. Here the situation is reverse I love the plot but I get stuck too often to really enjoy them.

I thought this was a brilliant exercise and have learnt a lot from it - thank you Erdinc -
Made me sort out my Turkish language keyboard too !


1. Evet, Ayşe uyudu
2. Evet, Ayşe rüya gördu
3. Ayşe havada uçtu
4. Havada çok bulut var
5. Evet, Ayşe çocuklar el salladı
6. Evet, Ayşe insanlar gördü
7. Evet, Ayşe evler gördü
8. Uçakta pılot var
9. Ayşe pılot selam verdı
10. Kuşlar Ayşe ye "Merhaba" dedı
11. Saat çaldı ve Ayşe uyandı

I was reading through some of the comments/answers and I am confused by one of the explanations Erdınc has given (to Bod)on no 5.

In the story the words read "Çocuklar el salladı" - she waved at the children but Erdinc you give a possible answer as "Evet, çocuklar el salladılar". Doesn't the plural indicate that it is the children waving at Ayşe ?
I am I doıng somethıng badly wrong here ?

U Star !
Am loading it now - thank you.
