Akşam yemeği

A brother and sister arrange a family dinner by text message.

Short messages between siblings. Can calls his older sister abla — that is how you address an older sister in Turkish, often instead of her name.

Can

Abla, akşam evde misin?

Elif

Evet, saat yedide evdeyim. Neden?

Can

Annem ve babam da geliyor. Birlikte akşam yemeği yiyoruz, tamam mı?

Elif

Tamam! Ama evde ekmek yok.

Can

Sorun değil. Ben ekmek ve tatlı getiriyorum.

Elif

Çok iyi! Ben çorba ve pilav yapıyorum.

Can

Görüşürüz!
