Daire no. -> Apartment no.
Mahalle -> Neighbourhood
İlçe -> District

A

Türkçede “daire” dediğimiz bağımsız birimlerin her birine İngilizcede ‘apartment’ denir. Bizim Türkçede ‘apartman’ dediğimiz binaya ise “apartment building” denir.

Örnek bir adres ve çevirisi şöyledir:

İstanbul ili, Kadiköy ilçesi, Osmanağa mahallesi, Moda caddesi, Tellalzade sokağı, bina no 25, Kat 2, Daire 4

Province of Istanbul, district of Kadıköy, neighbourhood of Osmanağa, Moda road, Tellalzade street, apartment building #25, 2nd floor, Apartment no. 4
