| Cultural Insight |
| Eric: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Icten: If you want to ask a question that you’re pretty sure you know the answer to, but you just want to clarify, you can use the word değil mi. Here’s an example. |
| Bir köpeğin var değil mi? This literally means “You have a dog, don't you?” |
| You just add the little word değil mi after the sentence. |
