Questions & Answers about Siz lütfen formu doldurunuz, ardından sıradaki danışmana geçiniz.

Why are both "Siz" and the verb endings "-unuz/-iniz" used? Isn’t that redundant?

Turkish usually drops subject pronouns because verb endings show the person. Here, using both is a stylistic choice:

• Siz adds respectful direct address and can emphasize “you.”
• -unuz/-iniz is the second-person plural imperative ending, used for polite/formal address (even to one person). You could omit either and still be correct:
• Lütfen formu doldurunuz, ardından … geçiniz.
• Siz lütfen formu doldurun, ardından … geçin. The version given is very formal/polite, typical of written instructions.

What’s the difference between "doldurun" vs "doldurunuz" (and "geçin" vs "geçiniz")?

They’re both second-person plural imperatives. The forms with -iniz/-unuz are more ceremonious and common on signs, announcements, and official instructions. The shorter -in/-ın/-un/-ün forms are still polite/formal but sound more neutral and conversational.

• Lütfen bekleyin. (neutral polite)
• Lütfen bekleyiniz. (very formal/polite, sign-like)

Why is "formu" in the accusative case?

Because it’s a definite, specific object (“the form” that is known in the context). In Turkish, definite direct objects take the accusative:

• Definite: formu doldurunuz.
• Indefinite: bir form doldurunuz (“fill a form,” any form). Leaving out -u here would sound odd because a specific form is meant.

Why is it "formu" (with -u), not "formi" or "formı"?
