Quoting tomac

Hi, I downloaded contents of Manisa Turkish website about 1 year ago (I think it was in July 2008). Maybe not all, but probably the major part of it. I´ve just uploaded it to RapidShare, here´s a link:

 

http://rapidshare.com/files/211791011/manisa.turkish.zip

 

Unfortunately, it´s about 24 MB (there are some pdfs and mp3s included) so you will have to wait for a while (I have also a shorter version about 8MB, if someone is interested I can upload it too).

 

When you download it all you need to do is to unpack it somewhere, get into "turkishlanguage.co.uk" folder and inside of it open "index.html" file. Sadly, I guess I didn´t download some style-related file, because website looks quite different (layout is bit messed up, most of colors are gone) but fortunately it´s still readable.

 

Hope it´s helpful. If someone has any problems with downloading it then send me a private message with your email, when I have a time I can send it by email.

 

Thank you so much. I may repubish them in my website but I hope no one would call it "stealing content"

if the last letter is a vowel, it becomes -yse/-ysa

 

adjective;

iyi ; last letter is "i" ; "i" is a vowel; then it becomes -yse; iyiyse

güzel; last letter is "l"; "l" is NOT a vowel; then it is -se; güzelse

noun;

araba; the last letter is "a"; it is a vowel, then it becomes -ysa: arabaysa

ev; the last letter is "v", it is not a vowel, then is it -se; evse

 

try to make the same thing with the adjectives;

sarý, kýrmýzý, mavi, yeþil

büyük, küçük, uzun, kýsa, az, çok

 

and nouns;

bilgisayar, sandalye, uçak, aðaç, fýrýn, tepsi

gidemedi or gitmedi has one tense: past tense

gidemezdi or gitmezdi has two tenses: past tense and aorist tense

 

gidemedi is for one time event. he tried to go but he wasn´t able to do that (for that time; and he did NOT do it).

gidemezdi has a persistence, continuity. Something like "used to" in English. this -z suffix gives the word this meaning. gidemezdi; (maybe he wanted to do but) he was not able to do that (in that conditions for example, or for a while )

 

positive;

gidebildi : he tried and he could do that (one time; and he did it!)

gidebilirdi : he was able/allowed to do that (for a time period; and we are not interested in if he did it or not)

Quoting heros

the object of sevmek is always takes accusative case.It always takes accucastive endings(i).If the very end letter consonant (i,ý,u,ü according to vowel harmony) or ýf the very end letter vowel (yý,yi,yu,yü

  In the same way hoþlanmak ,korkmak ve nefret etmek it takes Ablative case (den,dan or ten,tan)FýSTýKÇý ÞaHaP rule is valid.

   You must learn the verb its object ending.In some cases, same verb means different.It changes object endings according to meanings.

Quoting CANLI

 Thank you si

Then we use olmak in that case

But dont we use past with nouns ?

 

Ad/ sýfat + DI ?

 

Ýn that case how do we use þart ?

 

I think sometimes we can use "[ad] idiyse" but I don´t think that is the step you are supposed to learn right now. Forgive me if I look priggish, but I think sometimes you ask things you will never need to use

 

A very rare usage (It was very difficult to find this example to me)

Eðer gelen kiþi sen idiysen, Ahmet gelmedi demektir.

If the person who came was you, that means Ahmet didn´t come

 

"sen idiysen" or "sendiysen" you may change the word "sen" by a name

Eðer gelen kiþi Ahmet idiyse, Mehmet gelmedi demektir.

 

Eðer getirdikleri eþya masa idiyse, sandalyeler götürülmemiþ demektir.

If the thing they brought here was the table, then it means chairs weren´t brought

But this, i dont understand what is the DA

Ýs it past , or is it de state ?

 

ad + DA + (y) sA + kiþi eki

ad + DA   deðil / yoksa + sA + kiþi eki

 

past is not -da past is -dý/di

Quoting Melek74

 

 

Ýki haftalýk tatilime 29 Mayýs baþlayabilirim, o zamanda geleceðim, olur mu?

 

Eðer istersen, senin yanýna gelmeme bir haftayý ayýrabilirim.

 

 

Wait for corrections.

 

29 Mayýs´ta ...

o zaman__ geleceðim ... (no -da suffix here)

 

And where are we supposed to put "april" in original text into the translation?
