Greetings,
That sentence must be build for educational pusposes as we would not hear this type of sentence very often.
Anyway here is the long answer to your second question:
Transitive Verbs:
These are the verbs that take an object. For instance "to sleep" is intransitive since it doesn't take an object. You can not sleep something. On the other hand "to cut" is transitive since it takes objects. You can cut something.
In Turkish, the object of a transitive verb will take a case suffix. In most cases this case suffix will be "accusative case" which is known as "-i case" (i hali).
Here is the full list for accusative case:
-ı, -i, -u, -ü
When you say "I love Turkia", 'to love' is transitive and takes the object 'Türkiye'. Therefore it will be "Türkiye'yi seviyorum". There is a buffer letter "y" in Türkiye'yi. Smillarly we say "Seni seviyorum" where sen takes the -i case.
Accusative is also called direct object case. It applies directly to the object. Accusative:
love the ... > -i sevmek
cut the ... > -i kesmek
want the ... > -i istemek
Some verbs take different cases. For instance "to look". You are not "looking THE" but you are "looking to". Therefore it takes the dative case. Dative case expresses the direction of the action.
The full list of dative case: -e, -a
look to > -e bakmak
go to > -e gitmek
take a shoot to > -e vurmak
Here is a full list:
1. name of case > 2. meaning > 3. full list according vowel harmony > 4. example noun > 5. example sentence
1. nominative case > 2. pure form > 3. no suffix > 4. İstanbul > 5. İstanbul çok güzel (Istanbul is very beautiful).
1. Dative > 2. direction: to > 3. -e, -a > 4. İstanbul'a > 5. İstanbul'a gidiyorum (I'm going to Istanbul).
1. Accusative > 2. applies to the object itself > 3. -ı, i ,u ,ü > 4. İstanbul'u > 5. İstanbul'u seviyorum (I love Istanbul).
1. Locative > 2. location: in, at, on > 3. -de, da, te, ta > 4. İstanbul'da > 5. İstanbul'da yaşıyorum (I'm living in Istanbul).
1. Ablative > 2. from > 3. -den, dan, ten, tan> 4. İstanbul'dan > 5. İstanbul'dan geliyorum (I'm coming from Istanbul).
The short answer is this:
vurmak takes -e case (to, towards). It is always "-e vurmak". Smillarly, it is always "-i sevmek". These are predefined things.
