Boots can collect mud while working in a garden.
The idea
Çizme means boot. The definite object çizmeyi uses a linking y; çizmem means my boot. Çizmelere means to or onto the boots.
Examples
- Çizmeyi bahçede dikkatle yıkadım.I carefully washed the boot in the garden.
- Çizmem kapının dışında kuruyor.My boot is drying outside the door.
- Çizmelere biraz su döküldü.A little water spilled onto the boots.
- Bu çizme ayağıma büyük.This boot is too big for my foot.
- Çizmenin tabanı çamurlu.The sole of the boot is muddy.
- Çocuk bahçede çizme giyiyor.The child wears boots in the garden.
