Questions & Answers about Bu projeden kim sorumlu?
Why is the ablative case (-den) used on proje instead of a postposition like için (for)?
In English, we say someone is responsible for something, but Turkish requires the ablative case (-dAn) when used with the adjective sorumlu. You can think of it literally as being responsible from a project. This is why proje takes the -den suffix to become projeden.
Where is the word for 'is' in this sentence?
Why is the question word kim placed in the middle of the sentence rather than at the beginning?
Question words in Turkish are typically placed immediately before the predicate (the main verb or adjective) to emphasize the missing information. Here, sorumlu acts as the predicate, so kim goes right before it. Starting the sentence with Kim bu projeden sorumlu? is possible but changes the tone, often making it sound slightly more impatient or emotional.
