| Hi everyone, ben Seda. |
| Welcome to another Turkish Whiteboard Lessons. |
| In this video we will be talking about how to give simple directions in Turkish. |
| Are you guys ready? |
| Let's get started. |
| Okay, let's get into the vocabulary and see what we have here. |
| Kütüphane. |
| Library. |
| Park. |
| Park. |
| Banka. |
| Bank. |
| Kafe. |
| Cafe. |
| Very similar to English, right? |
| Sinema salonu |
| Theater. |
| Movie theater. |
| Okul. |
| School. |
| Orada. |
| there |
| Burada. |
| Here. |
| Arkasında |
| Behind. |
| Önünde |
| In front of. |
| İçinde |
| Inside. |
| Dışında |
| Outside of. |
| Kütüphane |
| Park |
| Banka |
| Kafe |
| Sinema salonu |
| Okul |
| Orada |
| Burada |
| Arkasında |
| Önünde |
| İçinde |
| Dışında |
| Okay, let's look at the dialogue and let's try to find our vocabulary and our propositions. |
| Kütüphane nerede? |
| Where is the library? |
| Kütüphane Orada. |
| The library is there. |
| Orada, there |
| Kütüphane, library |
| Our word, place word, our preposition. |
| Okay |
| Okay, let's look at our other two examples |
| and again let's try to find our vocabulary and propositional vocabulary. ok! |
| Park bankanın arkasinda. |
| I want you to look at this part and remember this suffix here. |
| Okay. |
| Bankanın. |
| The park is behind the bank, |
| behind, arkasımda, |
| banka, the bank, okay? |
| Let's look at the other one. |
| Sinema salonu burada. |
| The theater is here. |
| This is two different examples. |
| Here we have one place and one preposition. |
| In this example |
| we have two places and one preposition. |
| Okay |
| do you remember we talk about this suffix here? |
| Now let's look at our sentence pattern. |
| Our sentence pattern, |
| if it's two places, |
| we have place one, plain |
| place two, plain but we have to add a suffix. |
| un |
| But you see here is un / in / un / ün. |
| Now this is a little complicated |
| but in Turkish vowel harmony rules change the vowels according to the word. |
| This is another rule but for now remember this one of these suffixes |
| come to the next, you know, the second place. |
| First place is plain, second place is with a suffix, then a location. |
| Place, place with a suffix, location. |
| Park, place |
| banka'nın place with a suffix, |
| arkasımda, location. |
| Place, place with a suffix, location. |
| Place, place with a suffix, |
| location |
| and the suffix is un / in / un or ün. |
| okay and in English you see place is location and place |
| okay |
| place is location place |
| place is location place |
| in Turkish place, place with a suffix, location. |
| okay I have one cultural point for you |
| these are some of the directional propositions |
| as I already told you |
| in Turkish these propositions can take a lot of suffixes |
| in Turkish a lot of words take a lot of suffixes |
| and I know that this can be discouraging especially for the beginner students |
| but don't be discouraged remember there is always one root |
| and the suffixes are added to that to change the meaning |
| and you will get used to it in time Turkish is harder at first easier later |
| so don't be discouraged and keep studying |
