So this would be the answer to a question like: "Do you eat that (pointing at the soup..)?" or any other question that implies soup plays an accusative role here..?

My wife who is a native Turkish speaker says that you would not say this. The response would still need a verb.
That isn't the case if you give the sentence a context. If someone asks you in Turkish "Would you perhaps like some soup or a drink," this would be your response if you just wanted soup. and it is perfectly fine.

Mrs. Hurrikaane here. Grammatically it is wrong, for the accusative is only used with a verb in the sentence. Colloquially, you would not say this either. You would convey what you want to say but in a way that is very unusual and stilted.

So, this is comparable to the German accusative case, for example: Guten Morgen. Right?
That's what I was wondering also. Can anyone clarify?

the TTS makes the word sound like Chorway. You cannot hear the B at all. Is this right? When I look at pronunciation lists for the alphabet, it suggests that B is pronounced as in BOY.

Pronunciation lists are correct... B as in Boy :)
I agree that some of the recordings could be more clear, but I like to think of it as practice for going out in the "real world" where sounds get muffled all the time. (Not to mention the different accents and dialects that alter things!)
Thankfully, with any language, our ears gradually become more accommodating to these differences with time and exposure. :)

Thanks. And for sure, good to get used to hearing things pronounced differently. I just want to make sure I'm doing it right.

Forvo.com is a great place to double check pronunciations as well (although in this case I could only find çorba, not çorbayı.)
I would disagree. The audio is pretty good here.
My answer was right but it showed it mistaken, in the second effort this problem is solved. thanks.
