This seems more of a question to me than a statement. How would you say "are you sick or are you hungry?"

does this have the same sense with "you are either sick or hungry"?
Merhaba asalsahra
FYI
Back vowels: (a, ı, o & u) back vowels can only be followed by a back vowel. Example, uyanınca: uyan – wake up sleepy head, uyanın – wake up sleepy heads & uyanınca – awakened sleepy head/heads. All the vowels in the word uyanınca are back vowels. More examples: Kalkınca, soruyor, kırılsam, olmadın, olanları, kulum, kullarını & tanrım.
"Sen hastasın veya açsın." Translation: You are sick or hungry.
hasta -sın
The -sın suffix means "are"
yorgun -sun
-sun suffix means "are"
You cannot say "yorgunsın" or "hastasun" Simply is wrong consonant vowel harmony when spoken or written.
Possible combinations (consonants + vowels): Su Sı
I will post other examples & please can you research this too. Please can other learners contribute to this question.
Kind regards.
