Sorry bod for being a pain.
Page six: "uyandı" and not unandı

You are not being a pain - getting it right is important!

Quoting Deli_kizin:

BugÃ¼n ben mutlu gÃ¶riyor
Today i happy he sees.

You said 'he sees' instead of 'he's happy'..

Whoops - well spotted......

Let's try again:
BugÃ¼n ben mutlu gÃ¶rmek ol
Although I am far from sure that is the correct use of olmak :-S

There are a few tiny mistakes:
page two: "Havada uÃ§tu." not uÃ§ak
Page three: "Ã‡ocuklar gÃ¶rdÃ¼" not Ã§okuklar
page six: "Ayşe uyandı" not unaydı.

Corrected

Thanks for pointing them out

Quoting erdinc:

Wow, I'm impressed. Looks wonderful. Do we have permission to copy from your page and add to this very website? It would save time and energy.

Yes - you can copy it if you like.......
I've not written the words and question pages yet though - they will follow before long

I've also made a slight change to the script that makes the double click work with the dictionary......rather than opening a new page everytime, my revision reuses a dictionary page if one is already open

Yes bod this is a good idea. Possibly there could be buttons to nevigate from one page to another. I don't know how to do it.

How about this for starters......

And just like this site, double clicking a word opens that word in the dictionary

Quoting Roxy:

- Kır (or Ã§imen) is grass,
Kırsal is country side, and we call country side kÃ¶y (village) as well.

OK - that all makes sense......
But what is wrong with kırsal evimiz "our country house" or should it be kırsalda evimiz "our house in the countryside"?

Why kir evimizden ???

Quoting erdinc:

"3. Ayşe havadayı uÃ§tu." -no accusative here, -da is already locative suffix so it should be:
3. Ayşe havada uÃ§tu.

This has been confusing me since a read it a few hours ago - but whilst driving earlier I think the explaination came to me.......

havada isn't strictly the noun meaning sky. It is properly hava-da "in the air". A noun plus the locative suffix.

Is this right?
