Breakdown of Doktor bu teşhisi doğruladı.
Questions & Answers about Doktor bu teşhisi doğruladı.
The neutral Turkish word order here is Subject + Object + Verb:
- Doktor = subject
- bu teşhisi = object
- doğruladı = verb
So Turkish usually puts the verb at the end, unlike English.
Because it is the direct object of the verb, and it is definite/specific.
In Turkish, a definite direct object usually takes the accusative suffix.
Here:
- teşhis = diagnosis
- teşhisi = the diagnosis / this diagnosis, as a direct object
So the ending -i is the accusative marker.
Because bu makes the noun specific: this diagnosis.
In Turkish, specific direct objects normally take the accusative. So:
- bir teşhis = a diagnosis
- bu teşhisi = this diagnosis
Compare:
- Doktor bir teşhis doğruladı = The doctor confirmed a diagnosis.
- Doktor bu teşhisi doğruladı = The doctor confirmed this diagnosis.
