"Ben çok gencim."

Translation: I am very young.

[Derlin18]

can we also just say çok gencim since "ben" is implied with gencim itself?

[R_Andersson]

Yes, that is correct. Evet.

[Nour804773]

Yes you can.

[stejazyk]

Why does the ç in genç become c when we add im?

[rayanjml]

When a word ends with: k t ç p ( all the consonants in the word KeTÇaP).. And a vowel come after it..
K become ğ..
T become b..
Ç become c..
P become b..
Examples:
Genç.. Gencim
Kitap .. Kitabın
Balık.. Balığı
Yurt.. Yurdu

There is special cases like: saat .. Park.. etc

Thanks

[Weltpraesidentin]

Thanks! Is there any explanation why in a different sentence it says "genÇsin" ?

[chartsman]

Yes, Tips & Notes have all the explanations on the example of mutluyum/mutlusun.

[AnettKallai]

what is the difference between kitabı and kitabın?

[springrose]

Kitabı is "the book" while kitabın is possesive

[Avital_Tuli]

Do you articulate it differently too? Do you say /j/ instead of /ch/, for example?

[Lizestsuper]

When consonants have a vowel after them, they change to the voiced version (I don't remember the exact wording or if it was vice versa, sorry). You can see what they change to in the accusative lesson.

[Nour804773]

Because of the" ketçap" grammar check it on YT

[g0EC9]

Because we have the grammar called ((Turkish language letters "f s t k ç ş h p ")) these letters If the vowels of Turkish then come to be changed to another letter, the vowels are( a ı o u e i ö ü) example : the letter (t)Changed to (d) and the letters (ç) changed to (c) .
And so the rest of the letters change to other letters only the specific letters are (f s t k ç ş h p ) .

[ahmedfm85]

Can we say: Ben çok genc?

[AlexinNotTurkey]

No, you must have the personal ending on "genç" which will have the form "gencim."

[XUchihaGirlX]

No, It's not right

[Chronomatex]

So adjectives act like verbs in Turkish?

[Yasin8894]

No. The verb "to be" shows up as a suffix here. It doesn't have to come after an adjective. The object can be a noun as well.

[neo_rd]

Ç becomin c is the mutation rule. 'im' being added as suffix is which rule?

[Yasin8894]

-im for "I am ..." . (Ben) güzel+im, uzun+um, mutlu+yum, zengin+im, etc

[Jasjeet0]

Would appreciate ifthe meaning of turkish sentence is also flashedsomewhere on the pageafter you have answered it correctly or incorrectly

[wat144p]

I'm not though

[artemis1515]

Why gencim spells like gancim?? I've heard like e

[nehirakc]

Gencim kelimesi yanlış telaffuz ediliyor.
