Questions & Answers about Biletin fiyatı ucuz değil.
Why are there suffixes on both bilet and fiyat to say "the price of the ticket"?
In Turkish, saying "the price of the ticket" is built like "the ticket's its price". The first word gets the genitive (owner) suffix -in to become biletin (of the ticket). The second word gets the possessive (owned) suffix -ı to become fiyatı (its price). Both suffixes work together to link the two nouns.
Why does bilet use an 'i' in its suffix (-in) but fiyat uses an 'ı' (-ı)?
This is due to vowel harmony. The last vowel in bilet is 'e', so it takes the dotted 'i' suffix. The last vowel in fiyat is 'a', so it takes the undotted 'ı' suffix.
Where is the word for "is" in this sentence?
Can I put değil before ucuz, just like we say "not cheap" in English?
No, Turkish word order is different here. The negating word değil comes after the adjective or noun it is negating. Since verbs and negations usually go at the end of a Turkish sentence, it has to be ucuz değil.
