Turkish Grammar: Adjective and Noun

TURKISH GRAMMAR
By Fauji Imamul Arifin



1. Adjective and noun
The function of Adjective in Turkish, including:

The adjective as an attributive
it means that the adjective precedes noun.
For examples:
Iyi kitap → Good book
Bu genç kız iyi → This young girl is good
The adjective as a predicate
It means that the adjective is used after noun .
For examples:
Bu kız genc → This girl is young
Bu kötü → This is bad
The adjective as a substantive
Bu genç iyi → This youngster is pretty
like a word, when it is indicated as an adjective, we may not add suffixes. When it is indicated as a substantive, we may add suffixes.



2. Agglutination
We have to know that Turkish is categorized as a language which is agglutinative because with adding suffixes in a word is for yielding a new meaning. Turkish is an agglutinative language so that many suffixes in Turkish that can be inserted by us in a word. There is no prefixes in Turkish.

3. Vowel harmony
There are eight vowels in Turkish. They are divided into two groups/classes:
(1) The vowels which are yielded toward the front of the mouth part
(2) The vowels which are yielded toward the back. The classes are named as “front and back vowels”.


FRONT VOWELS    BACK VOWELS
         e                                 a
          i                                  ı
         ö                                 o
         ü                              u

Note: In originally word of Turkish, the vowels "ö" and "o" are only in the first syllable of a word but they don’t exist also in suffixes.

Originally word of Turkish has vowels which are in the same class, including front or back vowels. The phenomenon is named as vowel harmony. When we add a suffix to a word, the final vowel position of the word is something that determines the system of the vowel class (front vowel or back vowel) in the suffix. The final vowel is named as dominant vowel.



5. The plural
Kelime → (the) word
kelimeler→ (the) words

evler → (the) houses
filler → (the) elephants

dil → (the) language
diller → (the) languages

ay → (the) month
aylar → (the) months

kalem → (the) pen
kalemler → (the) pens

ayak → (the) foot
ayağlar → (the) feet

kitap → (the) book
kitablar → (the) books

baş → (the) head
başlar → (the) heads

öğretmen → (the) teacher
öğretmenler → (the) teachers

nehir → (the) river
nehirler → (the) rivers

how to make the plural form in Turkish?. We can make plural form with adding a suffix -ler to a noun after a front vowel (e, i, ö,ü) and add -lar after a back vowel (a, ı, o, u). Therefore the system of vowel harmony is very important in making plural noun.

Thanks for reading.

Adjective, Article, and Predicate in Turkish Language (Part3)

Adjective Position, Definite and Indefinite Article, Predicate Modifier


1. Position of adjectives
Below, it will be given some examples about position of adjective in Turkish:

iyi bir kitap → A good book
genç kız → (the) young girl
genç anne → (the) young aunt
yaşlı kitap → (the) old book
So we know that when an adjective is in front of a noun, the adjective modifies the noun like in English.



2. Indefinite article (a/an)
Below, it will be given some examples about position of indefinite article with adjectives in Turkish:

bir kitap → a book/one book
bir kelime → a word/one word
bir elma → an apple/one apple
bir bardak süt → a glass of milk
iyi bir kız → a good girl
iyi bir kitap → a good book
çok kötü bir kitap → a very bad book
beş cok iyi kitap → three very good books
iyi ve güzel bir cami → a good and pretty mosque

The function of the word bir (one) is as the number and the word bir has a function as indefinite article (a, an). We have to know that if the indefinite article or adjectives modify a noun, Turkish function like English order. The adjective or more come first, and the noun is preceded by indefinite article immediately. If the word bir that has meaning as “one”, it must precede the adjective/the adjectives like in English. If the word bir  refers to indefinite article (a/an), the adjective/adjectives must precede the word bir.
For examples:
büyük bir kitap → a big book
bir büyük kitap → one big girl

Note 1 :
Sometimes, the use of the word bir can be used with a noun that is plural.
Note 2 :
In Turkish sentence, the use of the word bir can be omitted.



3. Definite article (The)
There isn’t separate word in Turkish which is same with definite article (the) in English. Therefore many nouns of Turkish function without the use of suffixes, like plural suffix. We have to understand that a noun in Turkish has two meanings as a noun without “the” or a noun with “the”.
For examples:
kitap → Book (or) the head
kelime → Word (or) the word



4. Predicate modifiers
O kitap uzun → That book is tall.
Bu kitap kısa → This book is short.
Iyi kitap güzel → The good book is pretty.
Iyi kız küçük → The good girl is little.
Bu büyük kitap çok iyi → This big book is very good.
Bu çok büyük kız iyi → This very big girl is good
Bu kitap çok küçük ve çok iyi → This book is very small and very
good.
Bir ev uzun, bir ev kısa → One house is tall, (and) one house is short.
Bu süt cok iyi → This milk is very good.
Bu güzel → This is pretty.

In Turkish speech, we don’t use present tense of verb ‘to be’. Therefore an adjective that is in the position of predicate expresses as a sentence which is complete.
For examples:
O kitap uzun → That book (is) tall.’
O ev çok iyi → That house (is) very good
O cami çok iyi → That mosque (is) very good

1.Cardinal Numbers
bir kelime→one word, a word
bir kitap →one book, a book

Note:
In Turkish, there is no separate word for indicating the  (definite article). Therefore there is no suffix attached to noun for creating the definite article, each word in Turkish may mean ‘Y’ or ‘ the Y.’

dokuz harf → (the) nine letters

milyar    → 1,000,000,000

2. Yarım and buçuk (One half)
Ok, how to indicate “one half” in Turkish??. We have to know that “one half” in Turkish can be created with adding yarım or buçuk. Therefore you may choose one of them. The next explanation is below:

• Yarım
It can be used by us if there is no other number that is explained in the expression.
For example:
yarım kilo →0,5 kilogram
beş yüz metre →500 meters
yarım kilometer →0,5 kilometer
beş yüz gram →500 grams
otuz dakika →30 minutes
yarım saat →0,5 hour

• Buçuk
It can be used by us with numerals.
For example:
iki buçuk saat →2,5 hours
on yedi buçuk kilometer →17,5 km
bir buçuk kilo →1,5 kilos



3. Kaç, çok, and az
These are counting words in Turkish, including kaç (how much?, how many?), çok (much or many), and az (few, a little). They are followed by singular nouns like the cardinal numbers.
For example:

kaç ev→how many houses
az çok →more or less
kaç para? →how much money? az elma →few apples
kaç kitap? →how many books ? az para → little money
çok kitap →many books biraz tuz →a little salt
çok su →much water

4. Tane and Parça
They are very different in the function, the differences are:

• Parça (piece)
it is for indicating “one part”, “section”, and etc.
• Tane (piece)
it is a pidgin English that has no meaning. This counting word “piece” like in “one piece woman,” “one piece kitap”). We have to know that Tane can be used by us in expression or we may omit tane after the cardinal numbers.
Example:
kaç parça kek?→how many pieces of cake?
kaç tane kek?→how many cakes?
kaç kitap?→how many books?
kaç tane kitap?→how many books?
beş kitap→five books
beş tane ev→five books
