Memur belgeye damga vurdu.

Memur usually means official, clerk, or civil servant. It often refers to someone working in an office or government-related setting.

In this sentence, it most naturally suggests the official/clerk who is processing the document.

Because the verb expression damga vurmak normally takes the thing receiving the stamp in the dative case, not the accusative.

• belgeye = to/on the document
• belgeyi = the document as a direct object

So Turkish treats this more like put a stamp onto the document than simply stamp the document.

The ending -ye is the dative case suffix. It often means to, toward, or onto, depending on the verb.

Here:

• belge = document
• belgeye = to/on the document

The y is a buffer consonant. Since belge ends in a vowel, Turkish inserts y before the case ending.

So the pattern is:

• vowel-ending noun + dative
• belge + -(y)e -> belgeye

Yes, very much so. Damga vurmak is a common Turkish expression meaning to stamp, to affix a stamp/seal, or in some contexts to leave a mark.

Literally, it looks like:

• damga = stamp, seal, mark
• vurmak = to hit, strike, put

But together, damga vurmak functions as a natural expression for stamping something.

Because damga here is part of the common expression damga vurmak, and it appears as a bare indefinite object.

So:

• damga vurdu = put/stamped a stamp
• not a specific, separately emphasized stamp

In Turkish, bare nouns are often used this way in common verb expressions. The focus is on the action, not on a particular stamp.

Vurdu comes from the verb vurmak (to hit / strike / put, depending on context).

Breakdown:

• vur- = verb stem
• -du = simple past tense
• third person singular has no extra personal ending here

So vurdu means he/she/it did the action: stamped / struck / put.

Turkish past tense changes according to vowel harmony and consonant voicing.

The past suffix can appear as:

• -dı
• -di
• -du
• -dü
• or their voiceless versions -tı, -ti, -tu, -tü

In vurdu:

• the last vowel of vur- is u, so the vowel in the suffix becomes u
• the stem ends in r, which is voiced, so the suffix uses d, not t

That gives vur + du = vurdu.

The normal Turkish word order is Subject + Object/Complement + Verb, so:

• Memur belgeye damga vurdu.

This is the most neutral order.

But Turkish word order is flexible, so you might also hear:

• Belgeye memur damga vurdu.
• Damga vurdu memur belgeye.
  This is much less neutral and would sound marked or stylistic.

The verb usually stays near the end in ordinary speech.

Turkish does not have articles like English a/an and the.

So nouns like memur, belge, and damga can often be understood from context as:

• a clerk / the clerk
• a document / the document
• a stamp / the stamp

English requires articles, but Turkish usually does not.

Yes. Memur belgeyi damgaladı is also correct and means The official stamped the document.

There is a small difference in structure:

• belgeye damga vurdu = used with the expression damga vurmak
• belgeyi damgaladı = uses the verb damgalamak directly

Both are natural, but damga vurmak can sound a bit more like the physical act of applying a stamp or seal.

No. It can also be used figuratively.

Literal:

• Belgeye damga vurdu. = He stamped the document.

Figurative:

• Bu olay yıla damga vurdu. = This event left its mark on the year.

In your sentence, because of memur and belge, the meaning is clearly the literal one.
