Questions & Answers about Sarı kazak çok küçük.
Why does sarı come before kazak, and would it change if there were multiple sweaters?
Just like in English, Turkish adjectives go right before the noun they describe. Also, Turkish adjectives are wonderfully simple: they never change to match the noun. Even if you were talking about multiple sweaters (sarı kazaklar), the word sarı stays exactly the same.
Why does the translation say "The yellow sweater" when there is no Turkish word for "the"?
Where is the word for "is" in this sentence?
There isn't one! In Turkish, you don't need a separate word for "is" when making simple statements about a "he", "she", or "it" (like the sweater). Just putting the subject (sarı kazak) and its description (çok küçük) together naturally implies the "is".
Can çok be used to mean "very" for any adjective?
Yes! While you might have learned çok earlier as "a lot" or "many", when you place it directly before an adjective like küçük, it acts exactly like the English word "very".
