Yesterday I asked for translation for this line. I tried it myself and came up with this:
Did you understand everything I wrote to you last night? Dun gece sana hersey yazdim anladin mi?
It was corrected in this way: Dün gece sana yazdığım herşeyi anladın mı ?
My question is why do we write "yazdığım"? Does anyone have a grammatical explanation for this?

this is an attributive sentence and that is why the -dık form has been used
the rule is as follows: verb stem+ dık+ possesive ending
sana yazdığım herşeyi anladın- you understood everything I wrote you
bana yazdığın herşeyi anladım- I understood everyting you wrote me

Yazdım = I wrote
Yazdığım = That I wrote

you are welcome
N.B. -dık is used in several subordinate clauses;
unfortunately I cannot indicate you an Internet source, but I think the one indicated above might be of help
