"Ressam bir sanatçıdır."

Translation: A painter is an artist.

How does sanatçı become sanatçıdır?

[Yomalyn]

The suffix -dır can be used here because we're stating a fact. But it's completely fine to leave it off. :-)

Painter is an artist
But it went wrong

[SebastianPrice]

could i have added "bir" at the beginning of the sentence, or would that be confusing? "bir ressam bir sanatçıdır"

[RezaRazani]

When we use i and when use ı ?? What is difference between i and ı?

Why "Painter is an artist" is refused? In English you don't have to use "a" twice.

[Yomalyn]

Each singular countable noun will need an article unless they are the same part of the sentence (ex. both the subject). So for example:

• A painter, musician, and dancer walk into a bar. (...Ouch!)

In this example, painter is sharing its article ("a") with musician and dancer. But after the verb, bar will need it's own article because it's a separate part of speech.

It makes a difference because without it, an indefinite singular noun could appear to be a proper noun. So, your sentence "Painter is an artist." appears to be about an artist that is appropriately named Painter. :-)

Hope that helps :-)
