Learn Hardcore Turkish: Güven insanı mutlu eder.

Güven means trust; insan means person (with the -ı suffix marking it as the direct object); mutlu means happy; and eder is a form of the verb to make (derived from etmek). Thus, the sentence translates to “Trust makes (a) person happy.”

Why is insan written as insanı in the sentence?

The suffix -ı attached to insan is the accusative case marker in Turkish. It indicates that insan is the direct object of the sentence, showing that trust is making the person happy.

What is the role of the verb eder in this sentence?

Eder is the third person singular form of etmek (to do/to make). In this sentence, it functions as the main verb that creates a causative construction—meaning it describes the action of making someone happy.

Why doesn't the sentence include articles like "a" or "the" before person?

Turkish is an article-less language. It does not have words equivalent to the definite or indefinite articles used in English. Therefore, insan is used without an article, and context provides the necessary meaning.
