Quoting Inscrutable

Oruçan nasıldı. How is your fasting going? thanks. I know my attempt is incorrect.

 

 

Orucun nasıldı? How was (your) fasting?

Oruç nasıl gidiyor? How is fasting going?

Quoting Henry

I am just a learner but I see özellikle used more often for ´especially´.

From this site here is an example of ´başta olmak üzere´ being used 

Abu Dabi, MBC ve Suriye kanalları başta olmak üzere Arap kanallarında, Kurtlar Vadisi, Gümüş, Elveda Derken, Yersiz Yurtsuz, Genco, Yabancı Damat, Menekşe ile Halil, Kırık Kanatlar, Kaybolan Yıllar, Bıçak Sırtı isimli diziler yayınlanıyor.

The text says roughly that ´Especially on the Arab channels of the first 3 countries channels (Syrian channels etc), the Turkish serials with these names are being broadcast.´

And another example: Başta Daisyann olmak üzere herkese teşekkür ederim.

My thanks to everybody, especially Daisyann. Smile

good example

 

it is a bit formal; unusual to use in daily speech

I got my degree today therefore for celebration I was really hoping to watch the shooting stars with my friends and wish many many things!

But... Stupid weather in Germany, so many clouds, nothing to see Cry

Quoting linalina5716

Bu ısıtıcı siyah kazan diye çağrılıyor. {#emotions_dlg.lol_fast}

 

This is an idiom!

 

I think the best equivalent in Turkish would be:

"Tencere dibin kara, seninki benden kara"

I don´t know what you expect me to say. I think we will talk about this when we´ll see each other again. Till then I send you many many kisses.

 

THANKS!

Ne söylememi beklediğini bilmiyorum. Sanırım bunu tekrar görüştüğümüzde konuşacağız. O zamana kadar sana kocaman öpücükler yolluyorum.

 

(we prefer to say "big kisses" in Turkish rather than "many kisses" so I translated like that)

Quoting Henry

 

 

 We often say "I will zap this in the microwave", meaning we will heat this up.

Aynı mı?

"I am zapping the leftovers now" (in the microwave.)

Can you write a sentence with ´geçgeç´, so I can see how it is used? Thanks Smile

 

Almost nobody uses this word. it was suggested as a Turkish alternative to TV zapping but nobody accepted it.

Could you zap the commercials? 

-Reklamları zaplar mısın? (usual)

-Reklamları geçgeçler misin? (maybe it could be used like that. but sounds funny )
