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 )

most of these above words arent used in turkish, i think they are even not turkish!

they are just strange new word offers by "turk dil kurumu"

i recommend everyone to learn daily used turkish, not new unused word offers, when they are being used, ok to learn then.

Whey they are first suggested, they may sound alien (even funny) but as the time goes you get used to them.

 

Take for example uçak, I am sure it sounded funny to everyone when they first heard it. Now we all use it.
