Quoting Natlisa:

I guess if you pronounce it in your head though - knowing how C is pronounced - you'd be close to jungle, wouldn't you? Or maybe jingle?! After all, Christmas is coming!



Maybe it is because of christmas but I first thought of 'angel' - then realised about the 'c' pronounciation and got to 'jingle'

Here are my C's - I think these only work if the "ordinary native English man on the street" understands how C is pronounced in Turkish.

Quoting AlphaF:

First "down" gets precedence, unless you are more specific



So:
"Floss, aşağı in!" (go downstairs)
"Floss, in aşağı!" (get down off the bed)

Quoting mltm:

The second one is a good question. I don't know much about training a dog. but I know that people say "in aşağı" to make their dog get off from the canape or bed. but I don't know how they make their dog go downstairs, we have to ask a dog owner. "inmek" is also used for going down the stairs, so I don't know maybe with the eyes or pointing the finger, they understand.
maybe you can say "aşağıya git!" for "go to downstairs!"



I wasn't so much thinking about dog training - you can teach a dog to do virtually anything to whatever command you choose regardless of meaning to humans!!!

It is the general understanding from a statement.

If I said to a person "mltm, aşağı in!" and that person was upstairs sitting on the bed - how would they know whether I was asking them to get off the bed or go downstairs?
