Questions & Answers about Düğünden önce hissedeceğin heyecan normal.
How does hissedeceğin translate to "that you will feel"?
This uses the future object participle you are currently learning, which acts like an adjective to describe what will happen. We add the future suffix -ecek to the verb root hisset-, and then attach the possessive suffix -in (your) to show who will do the feeling. Literally, it translates to "your-future-feeling [excitement]".
I see the -ecek ending in hissedeceğin, but why did some of the letters change?
There are two consonant mutations happening here! The base verb is hissetmek (to feel). When we add the vowel-starting suffix -ecek, the t softens to a d (hissedecek). Then, when we add the vowel-starting possessive suffix -in, the k softens to ğ, giving us the final form hissedeceğin.
Why is it düğünden önce instead of just düğün önce?
As a quick refresher, when you want to say "before [a noun]" in Turkish, the noun must take the ablative case (-den/-dan). So, "before the wedding" becomes düğünden önce (literally: "from the wedding, before").
Where is the "is" in this sentence?
In Turkish, the "to be" verb in the present tense (the "is" or "are") is usually implied for the third person. The subject here is the whole phrase "The excitement you will feel before the wedding". By simply putting the adjective normal at the end, it automatically means "[The excitement] is normal."
