Since some of the Turkish characters cannot be visualised correctly I have changed them into some capital letters. The capital letter"I" stands for the lower case "i" without a dot. And "S" stands for "s" with a cedilla. "G" stands for "g" with breve.

Translation of the Dialogue


N: Hi Omer! How are you?
O: I am fine, and you?
N: Not bad. What did you do today?
O: I went to the cinema with my (elder) sister's daughters. The film was funny.
N: I used to go to the cinema very often before but I don't have spare time any more.
O: You supposedly went to the theatre with Rafet two weeks ago. Right?
N: Oh yes. That's right. I had felt rather bored that day (before we went to the theatre). We are going (to the theatre) once more next week. Would you like to come too?
O: I can't.
N: Why?
O: I'll be in Ankara next week; but, I'll let you know if there happens to be a change (in the program).
N: OK. Agreed. Would your (elder) sister like to come with us to the theatre?
O: I don't think so. She doesn't like the theatre very much.
N: I see.. Why don't you sit down? Anything to drink?
O: I can have a cup of tea if there is some.
N: There isn't any tea but I can make coffee if you like.
O: Why not? Thanks a lot.
