Hi mamamia,
Derya has already translated your sentence very well. I guess you are studying some suffixes.

As you see the dışaıdan has the -dan suffix which is the ablative case and means from. Here are all five noun states of it:

1. nominative: dışarı - no suffix
2. dative: dışarıya -e,-a (buffer y after a vowel)
3. accusative: dışarıyı -ı -i -u -ü (buffer y after a vowel)
4. locative: dışarıda -de -da
5. ablative: dışarıdan -den -dan

We pick the correct suffix according vowel harmony rules. Feel free to ask your grammar questions in our language forum.

BTW, our foreign members can try themselves on this exercise:

Apply the five noun states to any of the following nouns:
1. okul
2. ev
3. göl
4. konu
5. Ankara
6. Türkiye or 6. Türkçe
7. Ali
