" Ev " and "de" are different things.


 " Ev " is a noun [isim] whereas  "de" is :


1)  a suffix as locative case ---> Kafede  [at cafe],  Sarayda [ in [at] palace]


 So, it has to go with  the vowel harmony ---> Sarayda


2)  a conjunction  [also, as well ] ---> Ben de geliyorum.


----------------------------------------------------------------------


" Ev " is a noun and when it takes suffix, the suffix obeys the VH [vowel harmony] but  "Ev "doesn´t change.


Evde,  Evden, Evi, Evsiz, Evli , Evse

for 2) a conjunction [also, as well ] does de follow vowel harmony?

 

Are there other words that follow vowel harmony based on the preceeding word (besides mu)?

"de" can follow harmony only in two form -de or -da

 

Ben de  --> I also

da ---> He/she  also

Bide ---> We also

Onlada ---> They also

-------------------------------------------------------

*MI can take 4 forms according to vowel harmony:

 

-mi

-mı

-mu

-mü

Geldin mi ?

Kaldın mı ?

Oldu mu ?

Gördü mü ?

"de" alone is a word and yes it means also but when it´s added to a word like istanbul´da (in istanbul) or ev´de (at home) then it becomes a suffix and when it becomes a suffix then it means --> [in, on, at...]
