What we review: • “my, your, his…” is an ending on the word: evim, araban, kedisi, odamız; • before an ending that starts with a vowel, p → b, k → ğ, ç → c: kitabım, yatağa, genci; the vowel drops out: şehrim, oğlu; • after “my, your” a case ending goes on as usual: evimde, arkadaşına; • “I have” is a word with “my” + var, “I don't have” is yok; and “there is” is the place + var: Odada masa var; • “whose” takes two endings: -ın on the owner and “his / her” on the thing: Burak'ın kalemi. Also: • “want to do” is a verb in -mak / -mek + istiyorum; • your job: Aşçıyım or Bir kafede aşçı olarak çalışıyorum. The module is over: now you can say whose something is, talk about your family and your work, and say what you want.
My, your, his, our, your, their

The ending goes on the word itself; you can leave out benim, senin…
