Which one?

Every intrest help people about language. poetry, songs, literature... for example in Turkey, there are many computer games and 99% in English, so we enjoy and it helps about English, but sure not much, only a little.

It depends on your intrest.

Quoting ambertje:

Thank you, But why do you use benim, senin etc?



Let's look at the structure of the sentence:

benim gitmem lazım"

Verb is lazım olmak
we may think it in english: "to be necessary"

Subject is benim gitmem or you may write it without "benim". Only gitmem

So: what is necessary? (what have to be done?)
Answer is: "(benim) gitmem"
means: "my going" or "my going action"

Here "gitme" is the action. and my action is "i am going"
now we must say it as a subject group: "benim gitmem". so it is "my going"

and what is necessary? it is my going: "benim gitmem"
and let's look at the sentence form:
Subject + Object + Verb

what is our subject?
benim gitmem

and what is the verb?
lazım

As you see, all subjects are the third person: "it"
not "I" or "you" like in English sentence: "I have to go"

so verb must be suitable as the third person: "it"
lazım
who or what is necessary? Kim ya da ne lazım?
my going. benin gitmem

so, full sentence:
benim gitmem lazım : my going is necessary (or formal version in English: "I have to go")

and you should change it for the other pronouns:

senin gitmen: your going
onun gitmesi: his/her going
bizim gitmemiz: our going
sizin gitmeniz: your going
onların gitmesi (or onların gitmeleri): their going (or their goings)

I hope it is helpful!

Yes, we have to memorize it as birşeye tahammül etmek

Bu kadar yolculuğa tahammül etmesi zordu.
yolculuk+a=yolculuğa
(trip)

Çocukların gürültüsüne tahammül edemezdi.
"çocukların gürültüsü" + "n" buffer + "e": çocukların gürültüsüne
the noise of children

Haramiler is a Turkish pop/rock band, and I think this song is very nice:

Quoting Snow Drop:


that's sad, but still it's different in turkey since 99% are muslims
it's all about personal freedom, i dont understand how a scarf can hurt others



I don't judge anyone's belief but I don't think that proportion is 99%. It may say so on identity cards, but reality is some different.

By the way, not all muslims think same about scarf/covering problem.

Quoting CANLI:

But there is a person in 'gittiğinden' the 'in'
And doesn't 'dIk' consider a tense ?



isn't "Ali" a person?

"Ali,(o) İstanbul'a gittiğinden beri hergün beni arıyor.
Ali calls me everyday since he went İstanbul"
