Navyman translated the sentence ´I love you as always´ with ´seni her zaman ki gibi seviyorum´
Under which circumstances does one use ´ki´ in these constructions, and when is just ´gibi´ enough?
Sentences like:
She behaved exactly like I thought she would.
The test went just as I expected.
I went to work, as I always do after having read the newspaper.
first of all, this "-ki" is not separate; i.e. "herzamanki gibi"
it is called "ilgi zamiri-relative pronoun"
whether you use gibi or not, the rule is the same. you must use it when you are omitting the noun, since it makes pronoun.
Your house is close, but mine is closer. Senin evin yakýn ama benimki daha yakýn.
Your house is close, but my house is closer. Senin evin yakýn ama benim evim daha yakýn.
I love you as always. Seni her zamanki gibi seviyorum.
I love you as I always love you. Seni her zaman sevdiðim gibi seviyorum.
I think simply it can be said that if you are not using a word with "-dik" you must use -"ki"
She behaved exactly like I thought she would. Tam tahmin ettiðim gibi davrandý.
The test went just as I expected. Test tam beklediðim gibi geçti.
I went to work, as I always do after having read the newspaper. Her zaman gazeteyi okuduktan sonra yaptýðým gibi iþe gittim. OR Her zamanki gibi gazeteyi okuduktan sonra iþe gittim.
