Learn Turkish: Yoruluruz diye, kıyısında şezlong olan bir göle gideceğiz. - Because we might get tired, we will go to a lake that has sunbeds on its shore.

This is an existential relative clause. Instead of using a verb for "to have," Turkish uses a locative phrase plus olan (the relative participle of olmak, meaning "being"). Literally, it translates to "on its shore sunbed being." When placed right before bir göle (to a lake), it describes the lake: "a lake [which has] sunbeds on its shore."

Why is the aorist tense used in yoruluruz diye instead of the future tense?

The word diye often follows a full sentence to mean "thinking that..." or "because...". When expressing a possibility or a concern that motivates your action, Turkish typically uses the aorist tense (like yoruluruz, meaning "we might get tired"). So, yoruluruz diye translates naturally to "thinking that we might get tired" or "lest we get tired."

Where does the "its" come from in kıyısında?

The base word is kıyı (shore). The -sı is the third-person possessive suffix meaning "its," which logically links back to the lake we are about to mention. We then add the buffer letter -n- and the locative suffix -da ("on"), creating kıyısında ("on its shore").

Why is şezlong singular when the English translation says "sunbeds"?
