Verbs / Subtitle III - Locative Form

 

 

Hello friends. Welcome lesson.

 

I have told for two times about Locative Form at Beginner Level Lessons. But I am going to tell it for one more time for you to understand it better.

 

Locative form has got four vowel, "-de, -da, -te, and -ta" which change according to both Consonant Mutation and Vowel Harmony.

 

With a simple table, let´s see the usage of suffixes:

 

I have prepared this table for both Consonant Mutuation and Vowel Harmony. Read it for a minute

Last Vowel

Last Consonant

Suffix

e, i, ö, ü

Soft Consonants

-de

a, ı, o, u

Soft Consonants

-da

e, i, ö, ü

p, ç, t, k, s, ş, h

-te

a, ı, o, u

p, ç, t, k, s, ş, h

-ta

 

 

 

 

Let´s use "kapı" noun at Locative form: Kapı ends with a vowel, so we will accept it as "soft consotant ended". And ends with "ı". According to the table, we will use "-da"

 

Kapı + da : Kapıda

 

Let´s to the same for "breathe / soluk" noun. Soluk ends with "k", which is a hard consonant. And last vowel is "u". Table says use "-ta"

 

Soluk + ta: Solukta

 

I have prepared a table for usage of Locative Form at some nouns:
