Questions & Answers about Bu paragrafta girinti yok, ayrıca punto çok küçük.

What does paragrafta mean, and how is it formed?

Paragrafta means in the paragraph or in this paragraph.

It is made from:

• paragraf = paragraph
• -da/-de/-ta/-te = the locative suffix, meaning in / at / on

Here it becomes -ta because:

• the last vowel in paragraf is a, so vowel harmony gives a
• the word ends in f, a voiceless consonant, so the suffix starts with t rather than d

So:

paragraf + ta → paragrafta

Why is there no word like a or the before girinti?

Turkish often does not use articles the way English does.

In a sentence with var or yok, a bare noun is very common:

• girinti var = there is indentation / an indent
• girinti yok = there is no indentation

So girinti yok is a natural Turkish way to say that indentation is absent. You do not need bir here.
