"Are the cars yours?"

Translation: Arabalar senin mi?

[ErikRempe]

Shouldn't the question word be the ones that gets the suffix? Like "misin"?

[AlexinNotTurkey]

The question word can only get personal endings and the past tense markers.

"senin" is in the genitive case and rightfully belongs on "senin" which can be "your" or in this case "yours." If you say "misin" on the end, it would be asking something like "Are you the cars?"

Why sizinkiler mi isnt accepted?

[AlexinNotTurkey]

It was just a missing alternative. It has been added :)

[EliseReclu]

Is it possible to say: senin mi araban?

[DanusiaPez]

Why can't I say "Arabaları senin mi?"?

[IoannisJoh]

same question

[FilipSamec]

I've just made the same mistake. But when you think about it, it's pretty obvious, what we did wrong. Cars are the subject of the sentence, you add the suffix "-ı" in accusative case, like in a sentence "Arabaları kim kullanıyor?", where cars are the object of the sentence, hence accusative case.

[Shahrazad26]

So senin and seninki are interchangeable?

[ErnieinPilot]

Same question still, why not “arabaları”

[adham344683]

arabalari senin mi - why not correct

[Duo191500]
