Learn Turkish: Kadın sıcak sütü kaseye süzer. - The woman strains the hot milk into the bowl.

The verb root is süz (from süzmek, to strain). For most single-syllable verb roots ending in a consonant, the aorist suffix is either -ar or -er. Following e-type vowel harmony for the root vowel ü, we use -er, making it süzer. The -ır/-ir/-ur/-ür forms are mostly used for multi-syllable roots and a few specific single-syllable exceptions.

Why is it sütü and not just süt?

We use the accusative case suffix -ü because the sentence is talking about a specific direct object: 'the hot milk'. If the sentence meant 'The woman strains hot milk' (in general), it would just be sıcak süt.

What is the purpose of the y in kaseye?

The word for bowl is kase, and we need to add the dative suffix -e to say 'into the bowl'. Since kase ends in a vowel and the suffix starts with one, Turkish requires the buffer consonant y to separate them smoothly: kase + y + e.

Could I change the word order to 'Kadın kaseye sıcak sütü süzer'?
