Subjects will never be in the accusative case. It is exclusively for direct objects. As a subject, there is no way to tell between "the cow" and "a cow."
I eat the cow => inegi I eat a cow => inek The cow drinks milk => inek A cow drinks milk => inek
Correct?
Correct, although for ‘a’ you can optionally put in ‘bir’. (And that seems to be required in certain contexts that I don't understand.)
Though the question as to why is it not sütü instead of süt, has not been answered.
Please see TheFlyingLemon's post below : )
(and https://www.duolingo.com/skill/tr/Accusative/tips-and-notes,
and my post above)
This doesn't make sense, cows never drink milk, only the calf drinks milk.
The sentence is grammatically correct but as meaningless as "The man barks the dog."
Because the cow is the doer.
The cow drinks the milk: İnek, sütü içer
The milk drinks the cow: Süt, ineği içer
