@nalet07 Oh! The third option is the most plausible for me, and it really works! Thank you very for the tips!! 🙂

So, you moved to Germany, not one of the English speaking countries? Can I ask why? 😅

Also, how come you are fluent in English? Are turkish people good at English in general?

Not at all, all free 😅

I moved to Germany due to economical situation in Turkey. I wish I could have found a job in an English speaking country. But Germany has better options for engineers. Learning German is so hard tho.

Unfortunately no, most of the Turkish people can’t speak English. But I was in private school, my parents are English teachers, my job is always international,…

@nalet07 Oh, I see. So, you graduated from university in Türkiye as a engineering major and moved to Germany for a job!

How bad is Türkiye’s economic situation right now? 🤔

Yes, I had graduated a university with an engineering degree in Türkiye. After 9 years of experience, I moved.

In Türkiye, you must work 4-12 months to afford an iPhone 14. In Germany, you need 10-30 days.

@nalet07 Wow, it looks pretty bad. Has the economic situation in Türkiye been like this? I went to Turkey in 2005, but as far as I remember, it was not that bad at the time. 😩

Can I ask you which of the following sentences sound natural? 🙂

(1) What is it really?

(2) What really is it?

(3) What is really it?

@lller Probably 2, but 1 is okay as well. To me, they express different levels of confusion. 2 makes you sound a little more confused than 1.

@lller I think you mean:1- What is the reality?Or maybe another usage:2- I’m not sure what it really is. (No question mark)

1 and 2 are natural. 3 is wrong.

@bsloan7 Do you mean something like “What is it, really”? (A comma means a lot for me)

@lller You can go with 2nd, if you mean:What is it, really I want to figure out.

@lller Sure, would you like to see my certificate? :)

@lller In order to reach at “ü” directly;1- You can change your keyboard settings2- You can add a second keyboard3- You can hold down “u” for 1 second and check the options I moved to Germany two years ago.
