HI
i want to ask about pronouns in TURKISH , u add a suffix to them but some letters are changing.
for example:
OUR HOUSE will be in turkish(biz-im evimiz)
but OUR CAR will be( biz-im arabamız)
why do u change from (imiz) to (ımız)
and when we say
THEY ARE BAD (onlar kötüler)
but in THEY ARE COMING it becomes ( onlar geliyorlar)
whay e changed to a .
thanks

It has to do with vowel harmony. Go to grammar and check vowel harmony's rules.
