Learn Turkish: Her yaz küçük bir kasabaya gidiyoruz. - Every summer we go to a small town.

Even though the current lesson is about the Aorist tense for habits, Turkish very often uses the present continuous tense (-iyor) for habitual actions too. Saying gidiyoruz for something you do every summer is perfectly natural and common in everyday Turkish, though gideriz is also completely correct.

Why is the word order küçük bir kasabaya instead of bir küçük kasabaya?

In English we say "a small town," putting "a" first. In Turkish, when a noun has both an adjective (like küçük, small) and the indefinite article bir (a/an), the descriptive adjective almost always comes first. So the structure is "adjective + bir + noun".

What are the suffixes attached to the word kasabaya?

The root word is kasaba (town). We need to add the dative case suffix -a because the verb gitmek (to go) requires it to show the destination ("to a town"). Since kasaba ends in a vowel and the suffix is a vowel, we use the buffer letter -y- to connect them, making it kasabaya.

Why does the verb root git change to gid in gidiyoruz?
