Questions & Answers about Ben akşamüstü parkta dolaşmayı seviyorum.

Why is Ben included? Can the sentence just be Akşamüstü parkta dolaşmayı seviyorum?

Yes. Turkish often drops subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows the subject.

• seviyorum = I like / I am liking
• The -um part tells you the subject is I

So:

• Ben akşamüstü parkta dolaşmayı seviyorum = I like walking around in the park in the late afternoon
• Akşamüstü parkta dolaşmayı seviyorum means the same thing

Ben is often added for emphasis, contrast, or clarity.
