"The woman eats sugar."

Translation: Kadın şeker yer.

[Hasenwinkel50]

Does "şeker" mean only sugar or sweets as well?

[A1fie]

The proper word for confectionery is "şekerleme" but you can use şeker for wrapped candies. "Tatlı" also means dessert.

[Potam28]

Hi!
Can someone explain why "Bir kadın şeker yer" is false?
Thanks!

[Ektoraskan]

Because Bir = A.

That would be: A woman eats sugar.

[Jocelyn.Willi]

isn't that the same thing? I made the same mistake aswell

[AOC89]

Because in turkish you use a different word order. You're welcome

[Yusreya]

Why not "kadın şeker yerler" ??

[Nimajita]

Because "yerler" isn't singular :)

[MelisT6]

Nornally you would say Kadın şeker yiyor, wouldnt you?

[A1fie]

Yiyor is continuous tense as in "she is eating" but people use it for simple present as well.

[Hafsa423195]

What's the difference between yer and yerler

[fuat646767]

Yer: he/she eats..... it is singular.
Yerler: They eat.... it is plural

But generaly we dont say Onlar yerler, we say Onlar Yer.

[FatimaChishti]

Why don't we onlar yerler? It's confusing

[fuat646767]

Yemek(verb): To eat
Ye! : Eat !

Yerim , i eat.
Yersin, you eat.
Yer, he,she,it,eats
Yeriz, we eat
Yersiniz, you eat (plural)
Yerler or Yer, they eat

O yer: he/she... eats
Onlar yer/Onlar yerler: They eat

[az541478]

"Şeker" should be translated as "sweets" or "candy" in this case.

[teamawesomesauce]

Just saying, I don't think I an the only one eating sugar right out of the jar, right?

[Wa3oodEhsa]

Why the answer isn't (kadın şekeri yer) şekeri isn't it an object???

[Layane879281]

is bayan and kadin are the same ?
