Questions & Answers about Yöneticilere sunulanlar bizimkinden farklı mı?
How does sunulanlar mean "the ones offered"?
It breaks down into the root sun- (to offer), the passive suffix -ul- (to be offered), the subject participle -an (which acts like "that are"), and the plural -lar. Because it isn't followed by a noun, it stands alone as a pronoun meaning "the ones that are offered."
Can you break down the suffixes in bizimkinden?
Why does bizimkinden take the ablative (-den) suffix here?
The adjective farklı (different) requires the ablative case (-den/-dan) for the thing being compared. Just like in English where things are different from something, Turkish uses the "from" suffix for this comparison.
Why is yönetici in the dative case (yöneticilere)?
The verb sunmak (to offer / to present) requires the dative case (-e/-a) to indicate to whom something is being offered. After the plural suffix -ler, it takes the -e suffix to mean "to the managers."
