Learn Turkish: Yoksa sana da bir tuhaflık var gibi mi geliyor? - Or does it seem to you too like there's a strangeness?

The base clause is bir tuhaflık var (there is a strangeness). We add gibi to make it "like there is a strangeness." The verb geliyor (it comes/seems) pairs with the dative pronoun sana (to you). Together, sana ... gibi geliyor means "it seems to you like..."

Why is the question particle mi placed immediately after gibi instead of at the very end?

In Turkish, the question particle follows the specific element you are questioning. Placing mi after gibi focuses the question directly on the impression: "Does it seem like that?" This is the most natural and common way to ask about an impression with this structure.

I thought yoksa meant "if there isn't" or "otherwise." Why is it translated as "Or" here?

While yoksa literally comes from yok plus the conditional -sa, when placed at the beginning of a question, it acts as a conjunction. It introduces a sudden suspicion, an alternative thought, or a realization, much like saying "Or could it be that...?" or "I wonder if..." in English.

Why is tuhaflık used instead of just tuhaf?
