Questions & Answers about Kafe indirimli çay sunuyor.

Why does çay have no suffix? Is it in the accusative case?

In this sentence çay is the direct object but remains indefinite and generic, so it takes no accusative suffix. In Turkish, you only add the accusative suffix (for example, -ı → çayı) when the object is definite or specific.

What does indirimli mean, and how is it formed grammatically?

indirimli is an adjective meaning “discounted” (literally “with a discount”). It’s formed by adding the adjective-forming suffix -li to the noun indirim. Due to vowel harmony, -li can appear as -lı, -li, -lu, or -lü depending on the last vowel of the stem.

Why is indirimli placed before çay? Does word order matter in Turkish?

Yes. In Turkish, adjectives precede the nouns they modify. So indirimli (adjective) correctly comes before çay (noun).

What tense and aspect is sunuyor, and how is it built?

sunuyor is the present continuous tense (Turkish şimdiki zaman). You take the verb stem sun- and add the progressive suffix -(i)yor. Because of vowel harmony, -iyor becomes -uyor, yielding sunuyor. It conveys an ongoing or habitual action: “is offering” or simply “offers.”
