Questions & Answers about Pazara gidince taze kayısı almadan edemiyorum.

Does pazar mean market or Sunday here?

Here it means market.

Turkish pazar can mean either market/bazaar or Sunday, but the context makes it clear:

• pazara gitmek = to go to the market
• the sentence also talks about buying fresh apricots, which fits market naturally

In fact, pazar often suggests an open-air street market, especially for fruit and vegetables.

Why is it pazara, not just pazar?

The -a is the dative case, which often marks direction: to, toward.

With gitmek (to go), the destination is usually put in the dative:

• eve gitmek = to go home
• okula gitmek = to go to school
• pazara gitmek = to go to the market

So pazara means to the market.

What does gidince mean?

Gidince means when (someone) goes or whenever (someone) goes.

It comes from the verb gitmek (to go) plus the suffix -ince, which often gives a meaning like:

• when
• once
• whenever, depending on context

In this sentence, because the main verb expresses a repeated tendency, gidince is best understood as whenever I go or when I go.
