"You are children."
Translation:Siz çocuksunuz.

"turlar" is the conjugation for "they".
I see German on your profile, so if we compare it to German, that's like saying: "ihr sind Kinder".

"lar" is the ending for they not for you. In English it is the same form: They are children and You are children, but not in Turkish and German. In English it would be you they are children, I think.
The former is singular and the latter is plural.

Because you need to represent the 'to be' verb somewhere: in the suffix 'sunuz'

I'm guessing siz çocuklarsınız" makes no sense because the siz* implies that it's plural, correct?

Doesn't "k" change into "ğ" before a vowel? Why isn't it "çocuğunuz"?
One of the multiple choice options was : Siz küçükeklemeyinzatensıfatlardavar.
Can anyone translate that for me?
"küçükeklemeyinzatensıfatlardavar" is actually multiple words.
" küçük eklemeyin, zaten sıfatlar da var." -- "Do not add "small," there are already adjectives as well." is a fine translation of that
No...that almost sounds Uzbek. There is no "senler" in Turkish and you must follow vowel harmony (çocuklarsınız).

So the plural of "sen" is always "siz"? Ok, thanks! You say it should be "çocuklarsınız" but at the top it says "Translation: Siz çocuksunuz". Is it çocuklarsınız but çocuksunuz?
Yep! The final vowel determines the vowels on the suffixes.

In this case, "siz" is not a formal "you"; it's a plural "you" because we're talking to several children.

Merhaba Satish974350. You are trying to say: "They are" instead of "You are," in Turkish. Teşekkürler.
