Use tren to talk about trains, platforms and journeys.
The idea
Tren means train. Trenler is the plural, treni marks a specific train as an object, and trenden means from or off the train. The front vowel selects -ler, -i and -den here.
Examples
- Tren saat sekizde kalkıyor.The train leaves at eight.
- Treni ikinci peronda bekliyoruz.We are waiting for the train on platform two.
- Bu tren Ankara'ya gidiyor mu?Does this train go to Ankara?
- Bir sonraki istasyonda trenden indim.I got off the train at the next station.
- Trenler bugün gecikiyor.The trains are delayed today.
- Trende bir kafe var.There is a café on the train.

No Turkish device voice is available. You can still read the text.
Watch out
Distinguish trende (on the train) from trenden (off or from the train). After a number, use singular iki tren.
