Questions & Answers about Fuarda herkes yeni ürünleri inceliyor.

Why is fuarda using -da as a suffix, and what does it mean?

• fuar means “fair” (as in a trade fair or exhibition).
• The suffix -da is the locative case, indicating “at” or “in.”
• By vowel harmony, since the last vowel in fuar is a (a back vowel), we use -da (not -de).
• Because r is a voiced consonant, it stays d (voiceless-after-voiceless rule would turn it into -ta if fuar ended in a voiceless consonant).
Result: fuarda = “at the fair.”

What does herkes mean, and why doesn’t it take a plural ending like -ler?

• herkes means “everyone” or “everybody.”
• It refers collectively to all people but is grammatically singular.
• You never add -ler to herkes because it already implies “all people” in one word.

Why is ürünleri ending with -i, and what does that signify?

• -i is the accusative case suffix, marking a definite direct object (“the new products”).
• In Turkish, if you talk about specific or known items, you use the accusative: yeni ürünleri = “the new products.”
• If it were indefinite/general, you’d say Fuarda yeni ürünler inceleniyor (“new products are being examined,” with no -i).

How do the plural suffix -ler and the accusative suffix -i combine in ürünleri, and how does vowel harmony work here?

1. Start with the noun ürün (product).
2. Add plural -ler → ürünler (“products”).
3. Look at the last vowel of ürünler, which is e (a front vowel).
4. Add accusative -i (front vowel version) → ürünler
   • i = ürünleri (“the products” as a definite object).

What is the makeup of inceliyor, and what tense/person does it express?

• Root: incele- (“to examine/inspect”).
• Suffix: -iyor (present continuous tense).
• Person/number: for 3rd person (he/she/they), you use -iyor with no extra ending.
Putting it together: inceliyor = “he/she/they are examining.”

Why doesn’t inceliyor carry a plural suffix like -lar, even though herkes implies many people?

• In Turkish, the present continuous suffix -iyor already covers 3rd person singular and plural.
• You do not add -lar on the verb for plural subjects.
• The plurality comes from the subject word herkes, so inceliyor remains unchanged.

What is the typical word order in Fuarda herkes yeni ürünleri inceliyor, and can it change?

• Canonical Turkish order is Subject–Object–Verb (SOV). Here you also have a locative adverbial at the front:

1. Fuarda (place)
2. herkes (subject)
3. yeni ürünleri (object)
4. inceliyor (verb)
   • Turkish word order is flexible for emphasis, e.g.:
   – Herkes fuarda yeni ürünleri inceliyor. (focus on “everyone”)
   – Fuarda yeni ürünleri herkes inceliyor. (focus on “new products”)
   The core SOV structure remains recognizable even when elements shift.
