Example

Akşamları yatmadan önce mutlaka birkaç sayfa kitap okurum.
In the evenings, before going to bed, I always read a few pages of a book.
Pronunciation: Ak-sham-lah-ruh yat-ma-dan on-jeh moot-lah-kah bih-kach sahy-fa kee-tap oh-koo-room
Grammar: “Kitap” is a singular noun meaning “book.” Here it is used in the bare form (without a suffix) as a general object after the verb “okumak” (to read). Turkish often omits an accusative ending when talking about an unspecified or general object.
