Time clauses: -DIğI sırada

Another “when” — but sırada means “right while / at that very moment.” It sets up a background action that's in progress when something else suddenly happens. Read top to bottom — that's the final video's order. Each beat gives what she says, the exact screen the viewer sees, and how it should move.

Intro

Host · 00:01

Says“Alright, in this lesson we'll learn -DIğI sırada.”

On screen
-DIğI sırada
Module 2 · another “when”

How it movesBrief talking head, then the -DIğI sırada title card pops in as she names it. Same -DIğI base as the earlier structures — a quick nod to that frames it as “one more use of a suffix you know.”

Meaning — “right while”

Concept · 00:22

Says“-DIğI sırada can also mean ‘when’ — but the word sırada adds an extra nuance of ‘at that very moment.’ It usually sets a background action that's in progress when another event happens.”

On screen
-DIğI sırada = while / at the very moment when
a background action in progress … when another event suddenly happens
more immediate than -DIğI zaman — “right as,” not just “when”

How it movesThis nuance is the heart of the lesson, so make it visual: show a background action running, then a second event cutting in on it. That “something was happening → then bang, this happened” feel is exactly what sırada carries — your call on how to stage it, but it's worth the effort here.

The structure

Formula · 01:21

Says“Let's break it down. We have the verb stem, then -DIğI, and then the word sırada.”

On screen
verb stem+-DIğI+sırada
-DIğI = the same base as -DIğI zaman · sıra = “turn / moment”

How it movesBuild the formula block by block. Since -DIğI is the familiar base, keep this quick — the new piece is just the word sırada on the end.

4

4-way vowel harmony + the d→t rule

Table · 01:31

Says“Like the others, -DIğI follows the four-way vowel harmony rule — dığı, diği, duğu, düğü sırada. And if the stem ends in one of the fıstıkçı şahap consonants, the d turns into t — tığı, tiği sırada.”

On screen
Last vowelSuffixafter f s t k ç ş h p
a, ı → ı-dığı sırada-tığı sırada
e, i → i-diği sırada-tiği sırada
o, u → u-duğu sırada-tuğu sırada
ö, ü → ü-düğü sırada-tüğü sırada

How it movesBuild the four rows (emphasise the changing vowel). On the d→t point, reveal/emphasise the right-hand column together — the d flipping to t. Third time we've seen this rule, so a fast callback is enough.

5

Conjugation — all six persons

Table · verb: gelmek · 01:58

Says“The possessive changes with the subject. Let's look at gelmek — Ben geldiğim sırada, Sen geldiğin sırada, O geldiği sırada, Biz geldiğimiz sırada, Siz geldiğiniz sırada, Onlar geldikleri sırada.”

On screen
PronoungelmekEnglish
Bengeldiğim sıradaas I was coming
Sengeldiğin sıradaas you were coming
Ogeldiği sıradaas s/he was coming
Bizgeldiğimiz sıradaas we were coming
Sizgeldiğiniz sıradaas you (pl) were coming
Onlargeldikleri sıradaas they were coming
(for Onlar, geldiği sırada also works)

How it movesBuild the table row by row as she says each person, emphasising the possessive ending that changes (-im, -in, -i, -imiz, -iniz, -leri). Keep sırada steady on the right so only the possessive is seen to move; the English column tracks the meaning.

Sentence examples

Examples · 02:40

Says“Let's look at the sentence examples now.” — then she reads each one.

On screen
Otobüs durağa yaklaştığı sırada kapılar birden kapandı.
As the bus was approaching the stop, the doors suddenly closed.
Onlar konuştukları sırada ışıklar söndü.
While they were talking, the lights went out.
Kapıyı açtığım sırada rüzgar esti.
Right as I opened the door, the wind blew.
ImagesA simple supporting image per sentence (your pick): a bus doors closing as it nears the stop · people mid-conversation as the lights cut out · a door opening with a gust of wind. Every one of these is “background action → sudden event” — if you can show the first thing happening and the second interrupting it, that is the meaning of sırada.

How it movesOne at a time; sweep-emphasise the -DIğI sırada phrase (the background action) as she reads it, then let the sudden event land — English slides up under. This is the beat to make the “right at that moment” feeling pop.

Outro

Host + end card · 03:52

Says“Alright, that's the end of the video. In the next one we'll look at ‘when’ with a future nuance. Görüşürüz!”

On screen
End card
“Exercises below”  ·  “Next: -AcAğI zaman →”  ·  channel branding

How it movesFade up the end card over her sign-off. She teases the next lesson (“when with a future nuance” = -AcAğI zaman), so a small teaser of that is a nice hook.
