Questions & Answers about Emlakçı, kiralık daire gösterecek.

Is the comma after Emlakçı necessary?

No. In standard Turkish you do not place a comma between the subject and the verb. The natural version is: Emlakçı kiralık daire gösterecek. Use a comma only with appositions or long/parenthetical subjects (e.g., Emlakçı Ali Bey, yarın…).

Why doesn’t daire have the accusative ending -i?

Because the object is non-specific (indefinite). Turkish marks specific/definite direct objects with -(y)i.

• Non-specific: Emlakçı kiralık daire gösterecek. = will show a rental apartment (some apartment).
• Specific: Emlakçı kiralık daireyi gösterecek. = will show the rental apartment (a particular one we have in mind).

Does kiralık daire mean one apartment or more?

It’s number-neutral. Without -ler, Turkish often leaves number vague; in English it’s usually translated as singular. To force plural, say kiralık daireler gösterecek. To refer to a specific set, use the accusative plural: kiralık daireleri gösterecek.

Do I need bir to mean “a”? Should I say kiralık bir daire?

No, bir is optional. Without it, the object is already indefinite. Use kiralık bir daire to emphasize a single, countable apartment. Place bir before the noun, after the adjective: kiralık bir daire (not bir kiralık daire, which sounds like “one rental apartment” in the numeric sense or is stylistic).

What nuance does the future -ecek have? Could I use the present continuous instead?

• -ecek/-acak expresses planned/expected future or a prediction: Emlakçı yarın kiralık daire gösterecek.
• -yor (present continuous) can also express a scheduled near future: Emlakçı yarın kiralık daire gösteriyor. Both are fine; -ecek sounds like a simple future/promise, -yor can feel more like an arrangement.

Why is it gösterecek (with -ecek) and not -acak?

Vowel harmony: if the last vowel of the stem is front (e, i, ö, ü), use -ecek; if back (a, ı, o, u), use -acak.

• göster- → last vowel is front → gösterecek
• gel- → gelecek
• yaz- → yazacak

Where is the subject pronoun? Why not say O?

Turkish drops subject pronouns unless you want emphasis or contrast. O gösterecek is possible but emphasizes who will do it: O gösterecek, başkası değil. Normally, Emlakçı … gösterecek is enough.

How do I say who the apartment will be shown to?

Add a recipient in the dative case (-a/-e):

• Emlakçı bana kiralık daire gösterecek. = will show me
• Emlakçı müşteriye kiralık daire gösterecek. = will show the client With a specific apartment: Emlakçı bana kiralık daireyi gösterecek. Usual order: recipient + object + verb.

How do I say it in the passive: “The rental apartment will be shown”?

Use the passive: Kiralık daire gösterilecek. If you need to mention the agent, add … emlakçı tarafından, though Turkish often omits it.

Can I change the word order, and what changes in meaning?

Yes; word order signals focus.

• Neutral: Emlakçı kiralık daire gösterecek.
