Questions & Answers about O kaba bir yorum yazdı, ama sonra özür dileyip sildi.
Is the subject pronoun O necessary here?
No. Turkish is pro‑drop, so you can simply say Kaba bir yorum yazdı, ama sonra özür dileyip sildi. Adding O can clarify or emphasize the subject (e.g., in contrast with someone else) but isn’t required.
Does O mean “he” or “she”?
O is gender‑neutral and can mean he, she, or it. If you need to specify gender, use a name or a noun like adam (man) or kadın (woman). Plural “they” is onlar.
Why is it kaba bir yorum, not bir kaba yorum?
With adjectives, the usual order is adjective + bir + noun: kaba bir yorum, güzel bir ev. Bir kaba yorum is possible only when you stress numerical “one” (literally “one rude comment”), which is rarer and sounds marked.
Could I omit bir and say kaba yorum yazdı?
You can, but without bir it often sounds generic (“wrote rude comments” in a general sense). kaba bir yorum clearly signals a single, indefinite comment.
