Questions & Answers about Koliyi gönderdikten sonra kimse takip etmeyecek.
Why do we use -dikten sonra in gönderdikten sonra?
This is the Turkish way to say 'after doing' an action. You take the verb stem gönder-, add the suffix -dik (which changes to match vowel harmony), add the 'from' ending -ten, and follow it with sonra (after).
Why does the word koli have the -yi ending?
Koli means parcel or box. Because the parcel is the specific direct object being sent, we must use the accusative case. We add the buffer letter -y- and the vowel -i to get koliyi.
If kimse means nobody, why is the verb negative (etmeyecek)?
In Turkish, words like kimse (nobody/anybody) and hiç (never/nothing) must be paired with a negative verb to mean nobody or nothing. It works like a double negative, so kimse takip etmeyecek literally translates to 'nobody won't track'.
How do we form the future negative verb etmeyecek?
The verb is etmek. To say 'will not do', we take the stem et-, add the negative suffix -me, insert the buffer letter -y-, and attach the future tense ending -ecek.
