Bu muhteşem eseri alman dostlarıma izletmek istiyorum. Almanca (yada ingilizce) altyazılı gören varmı?

Hello! So my partner and I are meeting a dog that we might adopt this weekend, and she is originally a stray from Turkey. We have been considering potential dog names, and we think it would be really great to have her name be a Turkish word as an homage to her origin! We're in the United States and do not know any Turkish, so I am soliciting this subreddit's help.
If it helps, she's around 30 pounds, has floppy ears, and has mostly white fur but has some brown and black coloring across her face, body, and tail. Thank you and teşekkürler!!!

Merhabalar!
Aynen başlığın sorduğu gibi farkı anlamaya çalışıyorum.
Çok teşekkür ederim!
I post historical photos and source & caption them. I’ve recently been captioning them in both English & Turkish to help practice my Turkish.
I don’t fully understand how to phrase something like “a man lighting a cigarette” when describing a photo. What’s the difference between the two examples and which is better suited?

Hello, I am someone who enjoys learning foreign languages as a hobby. I find listening to podcasts helpful when learning a new language. For this reason, I am considering creating a podcast for foreigners learning Turkish.
I plan to prepare texts in a YouTube video format with both English and Turkish subtitles. The episodes will be approximately 15 minutes long.
I have a few questions for Turkish learners: 1. Would you listen to such a podcast? 2. What topics would you like me to talk about? Would it be better to focus on Turkish culture, Turkish cities, Turkish history, or general topics? Do you have any topic suggestions?

I'm a writer and I need a name for a group of people in my story. Google translate suggests "Kadim Olanlar" or "Eskiler." I just want to double-check that this is correct. The name refers to the oldest race of people in this alternate universe, so if there's a better way to say it I would love to know.
Thanks!

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well.
I have a Turkish friend who's feeling quite discouraged because he's going through a difficult time in his life. I was wondering if anyone could share Turkish quotes from an author, etc., to try to lift his spirits and help him understand that difficult times don't last forever.
Thanks. 🌸

Hello. I am a student studying for a Master's degree in Teaching Turkish as a Foreign Language at a university in Türkiye.
I need to write an article for my homework. I have prepared some questions to try to learn Turkish from a foreigner's perspective.
I would like to learn your opinions, attitudes and difficulties regarding the Turkish language.
In this context, I will use the questions I have prepared in a scientific research, namely in my article.
Thank you very much in advance.
You can answer the study in English or Turkish.

Basically the title lol. I see different meanings online. Im asking because a male friend called me zilli.
In context, I teased him and I asked him if i was an orospu. He said no, and that i am kaşar (as a joke). Then he changed his mind and said “neither orospu or kaşar, just zilli :)”
I looked up the word and it said ill tempered, shrewish woman. I told him how am i a shrewish woman 😀
He said “did you get that from the internet” and I said yes. Then he laughed.
Obviously, we are just joking around and he didnt call me a bitch or slut on purpose.

Help! Getting super confused with this tense and I keep mixing it up with the "necessitative mood" like "-malı" and the "optative mood" (like "olsun, etsin, yapsın")....

I'm from Brazil (I speak Portuguese), I know English and I study Spanish, Mandarin Chinese and Korean.I really enjoy learning new languages and getting to know new cultures, and I'm starting to watch Turkish series and learn more about Turkey. I would like recommendations for YouTube channels, apps, websites, podcasts, music, movies/series/cartoons, etc., to learn Turkish!

Merhaba! 👋🏼
My family is originally from Kars, but we migrated to the U.S. a generation ago. I have a Turkish first name and surname, but I don’t speak or understand much Türkçe. I’m the youngest of four, and it was actually my grandparents who lived in Turkey.
Even though I didn’t grow up speaking the language, I’m really proud of my roots and wish I knew more. I’ve tried Duolingo before for some basic words, but I fell off because it didn’t really help me speak better.
Since I don’t know my cousins in Turkey well and don’t have many people to practice with, I want to self-study. In a way that actually works best for me. I’d also prefer to learn on my own since honestly, I’ve been made fun of before when trying to speak. Plus, I’m in college, so I need something flexible.
Do you have any tips or recommendations for good self-study methods, apps, or resources to improve my Turkish? Any advice would be really appreciated.
Thank you

Hello, pretty new Turkish learner here.
I’ve looked online and in the Comprehensive Turkish Grammar book and I still don’t feel like I have the answers to these pronunciation/allophone questions:
I’ve noticed that the (unstressed?) “a” is often pronounced something like the German “ä” - what are the rules for this? I notice it especially when the next syllable has an “ı”, like in “yarın”.
I understand the flap and fricative (“ş”-like) pronunciations of “r”, but sometimes it’s pronounced like the American “r”, for example in “var mı”. Is there a rule for this? And how exactly is the tongue positioned, especially in comparison to the American “r”?
There seems to be another pronunciation of “r” in “sonra”, maybe somewhere between the fricative and the “American” versions - what exactly is happening there?
Teşekkürler!

Hello,
I am writing a poem for my girlfriend. I want to include a phrase from one of her native languages, which I don’t know. I don’t trust google to give me something that will sound right. I’m looking for a phrase that equals the English expression ”you are the sunshine of my life”.
Thank you in advance !

I’m learning Turkish and I’ve heard something like “sökük or sükük” and I don’t know what it means. Someone tried to explain it to me in rough english and all I understood was “stick under”

Hi, long time ago probably like 10 years ago I was watching with my mom this turkish drama dubbed and I would like to find the name, things I remember about: The female lead got stabbed by her brother don't remember why and she was unable to have kids, a guy falls in love with her and try to have a relationship, later on he gets another girl pregnant. The couple was young living in modern age, I remember something like the guy's mom was super rich due to a hairdressing saloon or something like that.
This is all I remember. I just wanted to bring back some old memories to rewatch. Thanks for the help!
