Questions & Answers about Evden okula mesafe yüz metre.
How does the 'from home to school' structure work here?
We attach the 'from' ending -den to ev (home) and the 'to' ending -a to okul (school). This -den ... -e pattern is the standard way to express measuring or moving from one starting point to a destination.
Since it is 100 meters, why is metre in the singular form?
In Turkish, nouns that follow a number are never pluralized. So we say yüz metre (literally 'one hundred meter'), never yüz metreler.
Where is the verb 'is' in this sentence?
There isn't one! In Turkish, simple 'A is B' statements often do not need a verb. You could add the 'to be' suffix -dir at the end (yüz metredir) to sound more factual or formal, but leaving it off is completely natural in everyday speech.
The current lesson is about kadar. How could I use it in this sentence?
You could change the phrase to evden okula kadar. While okula simply means 'to the school', adding kadar after a word with a 'to' (-e/-a) ending makes it mean 'as far as' or 'up to'. So okula kadar emphasizes the span 'all the way up to' the school.
