Yes, you got it right.

Yarım ekmek, bir ekmek, bir buçuk ekmek, iki ekmek, iki buçuk ekmek, ...

edit:
"dört yarım yumurta" is alright. This is four times half = 4 x 1/2
While "dört buçuk" is found and a half = 4 + 1/2

Greetings Canlı,

The dictionary wasn't working good with Turkish characters so we have swiched back to the old engine.

Contents are the same for both. It is just the way they work which is different. The dictionary had an auto complete feature which suggests as you type. Now this feature is added to the old engine as well. Plus it works now great will all Turkish characters.

Yes, it doesn't suggest anymore a "did you mean" section but I will forward your request to our administrator.

Please post your new suggestions here. This topic is monitored regularly:

All the discussion started with some unnecessary generalizations about Turks living in Germany. I have decided to delete all messages from the point on after that particular "barbarian" comment.

This topic was already posted by the original poster. Therefore it is now closed. You can continue talking about this very important, special song in the other thread. Thank you.

No, buçuk can be used for anything as long as there is a preceeding cardinal number.

For instance this would be a normal and common sentence to say:

" Bir buçuk porsiyon döner istiyorum. "

Here is another example:

" iki buçuk bardak su "

"Buçuk" is used after a cardinal number. "Yarım" is used on its own.

iki buçuk saat sonra : two and a half hours later
yarım saat sonra : half hours later

If there is cardinal number (tam sayı preceeding we use buçuk. If there isn't, we use yarım.

Bod, all are correct. The thing is that you have too much flexibility in these situations. For instance, sentence one and three has an adjective clause wich is a noun phrase. "şekerli kahve" or "çok şekerli kahve" is a name on its own. On the other hand sentence two uses şekerli as an orinary adjective.

Notice the different usage:

I own many racing cars.
I own many cars for racing.


At the end all are correct. "Çok" can either mean "very" or "many". To prevent confusion you can use "pek çok" to make it a clear "lots of".

"çok şekerli kahve" can be two things depending on stress. "Pek çok şekerli kahve" can be only one thing no matter the stress.

"Ankara Hastanesi'ne" is correct.

"Ankara Hospital" = "Ankara Hastanesi"

But not, "Ankara's Hospital" = "Ankara Hastanesi"
