Town, transport and the car

Places in town, asking the way, bus, ferry and plane, and the car at the garage.

What holds these lists together

Getting around in Turkey means bus, ferry and the shared taxi dolmuş, which leaves when it is full — the name literally means “filled”. Long-distance coaches leave from the otogar, not from the railway station. With directions the cases help: the direction is in the dative, sağa dönün “turn right”, the place in the locative, köşede “on the corner”. One list is for drivers: licence, petrol station, breakdown and the garage district, often simply called sanayi; another is for nights away, from reception to the sleeper train.

For example: şehir (city, town), yolculuk (journey, trip), ehliyet (driving licence), konaklama (accommodation)

The four lists

Spread across the levels

The category runs across the levels — it is an area, not a difficulty. If you practise it, you can also choose a level at the top of the practice page and then get only the part that sits there.
