Isn't it possible for Brits to change the taps, change the plugs, switch to Euro and run traffic on the right side. Life would have been so easier.



Well.. I guess you should buy a new one then.. because in Holland (and in UK too) we have water taps that are like this:click!

You can choose your own temperature of water by either adding cold (right/blue) and warm (left/red) water. It works perfectly.

For showers there are also thermostate-showers. You can just switch to the number of degrees you want (for example 40 degrees). then the water automatically becomes that temperature.

Quoting Lyndie:


Generally in England, if you haven't got a dishwasher people tend to fill a sink or big washing up bowl with hot bubbly water and sling everything in and then give em a good scrub take the items out put them on the side and dry them on a tea towel.

In Turkey, you lavishly squirt dishwashing liquid on to a sponge. YOu then soap everything all over, and when you have finished, rinse everything under hot water and leave to dry. This is just in keeping with the Muslim culture of washing everything in running water. I particularly like the part where you don't have to dry up the dishes. When you think about it, it makes good sense, why do we dry clean dishes on bacteria infested tea towels?



Well i do a mix! I first rinse everything with water to get the first grease off , then fill the sink with hot, bubbly water and scrub it over. Then i rinse everything under hot water and leave it to dry. Sometimes i still go over it with the towel, as not all the knives and forks dry well this way. And i always clean the glasses with a towel, otehrwise they wont get shiny anymore.

Quoting bod:

But English is not monophonetic like Türkçe!



Well I think 'monophonetic' is quite relative anyway.
If you look at 'seni seviyorum' both the 'se' should sound the same. If osmeone takes REAL care of the way he speaks, like a news-reader, it might sound the same.. but when i heard it around me, the second 'se' always sounded a bit longer, whereas the first sounded more closed.
Spoken language always sounds different than the theoretic rules about the way it shoul dbe spoken. But i understand what you meant with the -r- sound, I heard it often while listening Sezen Aksu, i like it.

Hi

Could somebody please translate the following for me.

Sana deli gibi asigim bi tanem. (I translated - I am crazy for you my love my only)

Sensiz hayat ölüm bana. (Without you my life's nothing to me)

I think I'm wrong. Can somebody please correct me.

Thanks xxx



I can at least say that the first means: I'm crazy in love with you.

The second one could be something like. Without you life dies for me.. but someone else could better tell you that. At least they are both something from someone who must love you very much

No personal arguments are allowed according Forum Rules. Thank you.



Ofcourse you are right. Just let me say that I think that none of the participants in the discussion had the idea to on purposely hurt someone else. It was 'just' a discussion and not people trying to pull each other down, at least I guess nobody meant that.

Ohh well anyway, I'm gonna go on studying possesive suffixes again in the garden and tenses! Cant believe i really said 'görmüydü'
