Quoting caliptrix:



"Süleymaniye Camii'ne gitti"

"Gazete bayiine geldi"

"Şiir mısraını okudu"



I do understand the last two (I forgot the second suffix gets a 'n' insteadof 'y')
But not the first sentence. Why: suleymanIYE ?

What's a light or soft A? The a in saat does sound different (longer) than in aksam, but in sarf it doesnot (to me). The double aa is more in front of the mouth so saatler makes sense with the vowelharmony rule. But i do not understand that with a single a like in sarf....
A bit difficult: explaining how something sounds while writing, but may be somebody can... ?

cok tesekkur ederim! Very interesting! Like all answers it provokes (two) new questions:

-is this -i suffix the same suffix as the word should get in arabic? or is it just the case (some) arabic words are threaded different in turkish?

-is there a way in recognizing arabic words in turkish (without knowing arabic?

Sorry, that's nopt my question. The single word is 'cami', isn't it? With a single i. My question is: what's the function of the second i?!

What does camii mean? i should think it should be camisi or camiyi... because i learned about the helpers/buffers (y,n or s) between two vowels. Thnx for who'll explain
