Actually, I am not a bad person. The reason I was like that was because you didn´t deserve me being a good person for you. [ You didn´t deserve me being good to you]

Quoting Abla

 

 

What is the rule about initial letters in headlines? Is capital letter used in the beginning only or in every word of the headline?

 

 

 

The rule [tradition] is that, Traditionally, the  newspapers and magazines are most of the time using capital letters in only initial letter of their headlines and titles.

examples ;

 

Kamyon  eve girdi.

 Mini seçim yarın. 

 

Gazeteler ve dergiler oluşan geleneğe uyarak haber ve yazı başlıklarında çoklukla yalnız ilk kelimenin başında büyük harf kullanmaktadırlar: Kamyon eve girdi. Mini seçim yarın.

Unless it is a proper name referring a proper name , then both initial letters should start with capital letter ;

 

Lale Devri --> Tulip Age [ this refers a special period of time during the Ottoman Times]

 

Sample headline ;

Lale Devri´nde aşk

Quoting Abla

We are preparing a small bilingual Powerpoint show about tulips for our exhibition in Turku. I might have some questions.

 

The headline should be something like

 

                          Laleler  -  Sultanların Çiçeği

 

I am uncertain about the use of singular and plural here. Lale or Laleler? Is it disturbing that çiçek is singular?

 

What is the rule about initial letters in headlines? Is capital letter used in the beginning only or in every word of the headline?

 

You certainly understand it has to be perfect.

 

Singular of "Lale" should be used as it already refers the plural [the whole lale family] but in singular form.

and  because the agreement on numbers.  Singular ---> Singular 

                                                           Lale     ----> çiçek

So, I would say as ;

Lale  -  Sultanların çiçeği 

 

=====================

 

Yes, it should start with capital Letter. Not every word of the headline. An example from Zaman Newspaper ;

 

Geçmiş zamanların sureti: Lale

Quoting mom4maddi

 

 

bugün araba ile okula gidiyorum  

today car with school to going i am

 

this is correct understanding, yes?   ---> Absolutely Correct ! {#emotions_dlg.applause}

also you suggested "gittim".....this would mean past tense? I went, yes?

Evet, "gittim" is past tense " I went" 

 

Git + ti + m

I     did   go  [I went]

gramarye ?  ---->     Middle English gramarie, probably from Old French gramairegrammar

 

During the dark ages, it was thought that a person who could read or write was a conjurer or magician, and this type of magic was called gramarye

That "e" in the end will do .

 What about  " gramery " . It is old English.  This is close to Turkish way of  spelling that word. So ,it will keep everyone  "merry"
