j sound

 

In Turkish words there is no " j " sound. This sound is only found in borrowed words, such as :

 

Jandarma = gendarme [military police]

 

Jale = A female name

 

Japon= Japanese 

 

Japonya = Japan [Nippon]

 

That´s why in some dialects these words are pronounced with"c"

 

Candarma 

 

Capon

The reciprocal pronoun


The reciprocal pronoun birbiri means ´each other´

 

birbirimiz  ----> each other of us [one another of us ]

birbiriniz ----> each other of you 

birbiri/birbirleri  ----->  each other of them 

 

- Birbirimize baktık.  ---> We looked at eachother.

 

- Birbirinize saygı gösterin. --->  Respect eachother. [one another ]

 

- Birbirinizin bilgisayarını kullanmayın. ---> Don´t use each other´s pc.

Quoting claireheffron

yetişmek icin menzile gidiyor

 

Did you quote that phrase from the following famous lines of Veysel ?

 

Şaşar Veysel işbu hâle
Gâh ağlaya gâhi güle
Yetişmek için menzile
Gidiyorum gündüz gece

 

Veysel does wonder at this state,
Lament or laughter, which is right?
Still to attain that distant goal,
I walk all day, I walk all night.
