Quoting Yarvik364

 

1. Bana yiyecek bir şey verebilir misin?

2. Bana yemeyi bir şeyi verebilir misin?

 

 

Sentence 2. is wrong, but why exactly?

 

Cheers,

Robert

 

Because there is no connection between yemeyi and bir şey. And such a connection is not possible. But "yiyecek" functions as an adjactive when it is placed before "bir şey" and they have a connection because of this.

Quoting Yarvik364

Aha, I understand. Thank you.

I also found something about the adjectival usage of -(y)AcAK in the Routledge Comprehensive Grammar. They talk about a "copular adjectival marker" {#emotions_dlg.bigsmile}.

Yes. 

Ex. yemek is a verb. If I add ecek sufix I make it an adjective. So it becomes an adjective verb. You can use an adjective verb as a noun too. Is it complicated?

and also you do not use accusative case for indefinite objects like "bir şey".

Bir şeyi de yap.

Bir şeyi de bil.

Bir şeyi de yap.

Bir şeyi de bil.

 

but i think it is just exceptional idiomatic common usage. because you always say:

- Sana bir şey söylücem. (not "bir şeyi")

- Bir şey yapmamız lazım.

 

 

But it deserves a more extensive research.

Exceptional or not they are accusative

I do accept that they are accusative. That is why I call them exceptions
