Questions & Answers about Turistler akşam dolaşmaya çıkacak.
How is the future tense formed in çıkacak?
The verb root is çık (to go out). Since it ends in a consonant, we do not need the buffer letter y that you see in vowel-ending verbs. Because the vowel in çık is undotted, we follow A-type vowel harmony and just add -acak, making çıkacak.
Why does dolaşmaya end with -a?
The verb çıkmak (to go out) takes the dative case (-e or -a, meaning "to") to show the purpose of going out. First, we turn dolaşmak (to wander) into a noun by dropping the -k, making dolaşma (the short infinitive). Then we add the buffer y and the dative a to get dolaşmaya (literally "to wandering").
The subject Turistler is plural. Why is the verb çıkacak singular instead of çıkacaklar?
When the plural subject is explicitly stated in the sentence (especially for humans), adding the plural suffix -lar to the verb is optional. Saying Turistler çıkacak instead of Turistler çıkacaklar is perfectly correct and very common in everyday Turkish.
Why isn't there a suffix on akşam to mean "in the" evening?
In Turkish, time words like akşam (evening), sabah (morning), or gece (night) act directly as time adverbs. You don't need to add a locative suffix like -da to say "in the evening", you just use the word on its own.
