A knit cap can cover the head and keep ears warm.

The idea

Bere means a knit cap or similar soft cap. The definite object is bereyi, berem means “my cap”, and bereler is plural. The accusative adds linking y after the vowel, while possessive -m attaches directly.

Examples

  • Bereyi dışarı çıkmadan önce taktım.I put on the knit cap before going outside.
  • Berem bugün kulaklarımı sıcak tutuyor.My knit cap is keeping my ears warm today.
  • Bereler rafta özenle katlanmış.The knit caps are carefully folded on the shelf.
  • Bu bere başıma tam oluyor.This knit cap fits my head perfectly.
  • Berenin ipliği yumuşak.The yarn of the knit cap is soft.
  • İki bere çantada duruyor.Two knit caps are in the bag.

Watch out

Include y in bereyi before -i. Do not add a vowel between bere and possessive -m in berem.
