Questions & Answers about Herkes o yeni gezegeni inceleyecek.
How is the future tense formed in the word inceleyecek?
The root verb is incele- (to examine), which ends in the vowel e. When adding the future tense suffix -ecek to a vowel-ending root, we must insert the buffer letter -y- between them to prevent two vowels from touching. This gives us incele + y + ecek.
Will I hear native speakers pronounce inceleyecek exactly as it is written?
Not always. In spoken Turkish, the buffer -y- often causes the vowel before it to narrow. Because of this, you will often hear it pronounced as inceliyecek. However, it is an important rule that you must always spell it with its original vowel as inceleyecek.
Why is there an -i at the end of gezegeni?
This is the accusative case suffix. We use it because the planet is the specific direct object receiving the action of the verb. The word o (that) points to a specific planet, so gezegen (planet) must become gezegeni.
Since herkes means everyone, why doesn't the verb have the plural suffix -ler?
In Turkish, indefinite pronouns like herkes (everyone) or kimse (nobody) always take a grammatically singular verb. Just like in English where we say 'everyone is' instead of 'everyone are', Turkish uses inceleyecek instead of inceleyecekler.
