Questions & Answers about Düzeltmeleri yaptıktan sonra taslağı danışmana gönderiyorum.
How does yaptıktan sonra mean after making, and why does it use -tık- instead of -dık-?
The grammar pattern for after doing something is the verb root plus -dıktan sonra. Here, the verb root is yap- (to make/do). Because yap- ends in a hard consonant (p), the d in -dık changes to a t to match it, making it yaptıktan sonra.
There is no word for I in the first half of the sentence. How do we know who is making the corrections?
The structure -dıktan sonra does not change based on who is doing the action. We know I am making the corrections because the main verb at the end of the sentence, gönderiyorum (I am sending), has the I ending (-um). The listener understands that the same person is doing both actions.
Why do we say taslağı instead of just taslak (draft)?
You are sending a specific draft, so it needs the accusative case ending (the specific direct object ending). The word taslak ends in k, and when we add the vowel -ı to mark it as specific, the k softens to a ğ. That is why it becomes taslağı (the draft).
Why does the word danışman (advisor) have an -a at the end?
