Questions & Answers about Sabah montumu, gömleğimi, pantolonumu ve şapkamı hızlıca giydim.

Why does Sabah appear without any suffix, even though it indicates time?

Sabah here functions as an adverbial time expression meaning “in the morning.” In Turkish, certain time words (like sabah, akşam, dün, bugün) can stand alone without a case ending when you simply mean “morning,” “evening,” “yesterday,” “today,” etc. You could also say sabahleyin, but sabah on its own is completely natural.

Why are there commas between montumu, gömleğimi, pantolonumu and şapkamı?

Just like in English, commas separate items in a list in Turkish. Here you’re listing the things you put on: montumu, gömleğimi, pantolonumu ve şapkamı.

Why does each item, for example montumu, end with two suffixes?

Turkish is agglutinative: you add one suffix after another. In montumu:

• -um is the first-person-singular possessive (“my coat”),
• -u is the accusative case marker (because it’s a definite object).
  So you attach the possessive first, then the case: mont + -um
  • -u = montumu.
