Questions & Answers about Şu on sekiz araba ucuz değil.
How do we form numbers like eighteen in Turkish?
You simply put the ten word and the unit word together, separated by a space. In this sentence, on means ten and sekiz means eight, so on sekiz is eighteen.
Since there are eighteen cars, why isn't araba pluralized to arabalar?
In Turkish, whenever you use a number before a noun to say how many there are, the noun must always stay in its singular form. So it is always on sekiz araba, never on sekiz arabalar.
Why is it Şu instead of Şunlar if it translates to those?
When a pointing word like şu (that/those) is used to describe a noun right next to it, it never takes a plural ending in Turkish. You just use the singular şu. Also, şu specifically points to things that are a little further away but still in sight.
