Notes:
Again there are mistakes that could have been avoided if I was more careful. After staring at the sentences for a few days, though, I suddenly feel like getting rid of them. What I´m happy about is that most infinitives and participles were in their right places because that´s what I wanted to practice.
1. It´s hard to figure out the division of labour between different verbs of saying and telling (söylemek, anlatmak, demek). If someone had the time to explain them one day it would be nice. (Or maybe there is an old thread, I didn´t check yet.)
2. Doesn´t it bother you when there are two dative words in a queue, like in Çocuk sigarayı bırakmaya çalışacağına söz vermek zorunda idi. What if there was still annesine before söz vermek?
3. Sometimes için takes -mek-infinitive with a possessive suffix and sometimes without, like in
İngilizceyi çevrimiçi [internette] öğretmek için
Silahlı kimse adam hareket etmememiz için bizi uyardı.
What is the difference?
4. In the last sentence, the predicate was changed and the whole structure is different in the correction. I would still like to know what was the biggest handicap in my red sentence. Where did it begin to go wrong? (I thought about it a long time and would like to know.)
Evin bulunması zor olabileceğini anlatıldık.
Its quite normal for learners to having trouble to pick up which one for which case.
Söylemek ---> to say, to tell as you know, for example ;
Bana derdini söyle ---> Tell me your problem.
Sana bir şey söyleyeceğim ---> I will tell you something. [ I will say something to you]
for the first sentence above we can replace "söylemek" with "demek" but that wouldnt sound good.
for the second sentence that would sound ok. if we replace it with "demek"
Sana bir şey diyeceğim.
Anlatmak ---> its more like " to explain or describe ,something to somebody " its not just telling. You go more into details when you use "anlatmak"
Bana sorununu anlat ---> Bana evini anlat ---> Describe your house to me. [tell about your house]
Dont worry Abla, these usages will sink into your mind as you practice and study them. One day you will use them automaticly in the right place without thinking.
