Describe a blanket and where you put it.
The idea
Battaniye means blanket. Add linking y for a specific object: battaniyeyi. After its final vowel, -m means mine: battaniyem. After a number, Turkish uses the singular noun: iki battaniye.
Examples
- Battaniyeyi akşam koltuğa bıraktım.I left the blanket on the armchair in the evening.
- Yumuşak battaniye yatağın üzerinde duruyor.The soft blanket lies on the bed.
- Kış gelince battaniyeleri dolaptan çıkarıyoruz.When winter comes, we take the blankets out of the cupboard.
- Bu battaniye sıcak tutuyor.This blanket keeps you warm.
- Battaniyem mavi ve çok hafif.My blanket is blue and very light.
- Misafir için iki battaniye hazırladık.We prepared two blankets for the guest.
