Questions & Answers about Sibop bisiklet pompasına bağlandı.

What is the basic grammar of Sibop bisiklet pompasına bağlandı?

It follows a very common Turkish pattern:

subject + complement + verb

• Sibop = the valve
• bisiklet pompasına = to the bicycle pump
• bağlandı = was connected / got connected

Turkish usually puts the verb at the end, so this word order is normal and neutral.

Why is it pompasına instead of just pompaya?

Because bisiklet pompası is a noun compound meaning bicycle pump.

In Turkish, compound nouns like this are often built as:

noun + noun + -(s)ı/(s)i/(s)u/(s)ü

So:

• bisiklet = bicycle
• pompa = pump
• bisiklet pompası = bicycle pump

Then the dative ending -a / -e is added because the meaning is to the bicycle pump.

So the full build is:

• pompa
• pompası
• pompasına

That -n- appears as a buffer consonant before the case ending.

Does pompası mean his/her pump here?
