Questions & Answers about Kargo bugün depoya ulaştı.

What does kargo mean in this sentence?

kargo is a Turkish loanword from English meaning “cargo” or “shipment.” In everyday usage it usually refers to a package or parcel sent by a courier service.

Why isn’t there an English-style article like a, an, or the before kargo?

Turkish does not have separate words for a/an or the. Nouns appear without articles, and context (or specific case endings on objects) tells you whether something is definite or indefinite.

What does depoya mean, and what is the role of the suffix -ya?

depoya is depo (warehouse) + -ya, the dative case suffix. It literally means “to the warehouse.” The dative suffix marks the direction or recipient of the action.

Why is the suffix -ya and not -ye on depo?

Turkish uses vowel harmony. depo ends in the back vowel o, so the dative vowel must be -a (not -e). Because depo ends in a vowel, a buffer consonant y is added, giving -ya.

Why isn’t there an apostrophe before ya in (like “depo’ya”)?
