"We are walking home slowly."

Translation: Ağır ağır eve doğru yürüyoruz.

[Abdulrahma731218]

can I say
Biz eve yavaşça yürüyoruz
and what is the necessity of doğru since ev-e which means to house???

[SoleOnLingo]

dogru means towards

[EdvntL]

Exactly. Is it even a correct translation to say "walking home"? In English, "walking home" and "walking towards the house" are very different. I'm surprised that Duo, which is otherwise such a stickler for literal translations, would render the original sentence in such a way.

[saydammadde]

Eve yavaşça yürüyoruz.

[Ektoraskan]

Yes, that would be my first choice as well. Was it not accepted?

Thank you for answer.

I like the dative case -e "to our house."

Eve doğru yavaşca yürüyoruz, not possible?

Hello Nez97

I can confirm that your answer is correct. Response/reply from, "DISCUSS" was invaluable.

"Eve doğru yavaşça yürüyoruz." -> "We are walking home slowly."

You had a typo that has been corrected by the Turkish student who confirmed your correct answer.

Yavaşca -> yavaşça

Thank you.

Hello Nez97

Eve doğru yavaşca yürüyoruz, not possible?

Yavaşca (adverb) meaning -> "slowly."

Your answer is correct both grammatically (word order) & the adverb is a suitable synonym to replace, ağır ağır.

Thank you.

[Nez97]

It wasn't accepted, that's why I asked. And thank you :)

[MrHilmiNevzat]

Hello Nez97

I'm very sorry? I will try it during a practise lesson & post on, "DISCUSS" for answers?

Thank you for replying.

Can somebody explain ağır ağır? Doesn't ağır alone mean heavy?

Is "Doğru" in the presence of dative (-e) required? Secondly is dative suffix mandatory to use "Doğru" postposition.

Is "Doğru" in the presence of dative (-e) required? Secondly is dative suffix mandatory to use "Doğru" postposition.

Is "Doğru" in the presence of dative (-e) required? No, it is not in this Turkish answer & I did not use it. I'm not sure about other examples?

Secondly is dative suffix mandatory to use "doğru" postposition. Yes, it is. "Doğru" postposition. Used after nouns & pronouns in the dative case.

"Doğru", meaning: "correct" & "towards."

Ev (noun) "house" + -e (dative) case --> "to the house."

Thank you.
