"Çocuklar okuldan geliyor."

Translation: The children are coming from school.

[NahLaElHagag]

Why isn't "geliyorlar

[mizinamo]

It can be. -lar is optional in sentences like this, with a human subject that is already marked as being plural.

So both Çocuklar okuldan geliyor and Çocuklar okuldan geliyorlar are correct.

(On the other hand, if the subject were non-human, e.g. "The apples are falling from the tree", then you must not add the -lar ending to the verb: "Elmalar ağaçtan düşüyor".)

[cargilb]

What if the apples are falling from the trees?

[mizinamo]

I think that would be Elmalar ağaçlardan düşüyor.

[Spirus123]

Children come from school - should be accepted.

[opsiyonel-kisi]

it means "Çocuklar okuldan gelir"

[Zainab455879]

can we say Çocuklar okuldan
geliyorlar ?

[Quolh]

Yes but there is no need

[Faris_Khan]

Would "The children are coming here from school." be "Çocuklar burasi okuldan geliyorlar."?

[MariaElena736926]

why not> cocuklar okuldan geliyorlar?

[TurkanOzta]

Why is name school not made infinitive for example( the.)
Hospital should need infinitive (the)

[AlexinNotTurkey]

Infinitives involves verbs and not nouns. I am guess that you are talking about the accusative case. One noun can only take one case at a time :) (You can't say okul-u-nun-dan-da-ya-yla) :) Just one case per noun. Also, the accusative case is for specific direct objects of which there are none in this sentence.

[Dakota_Marz]

Could you add something like "bu" to make a direct object more specific if you have the ablative case on it? Ex: "She came from that store"

[maryam534517]

So what if I want to say the children are coming from their school
Thank u

[Akash_Polyglot]

Why the is used in sentence ...please..explain

[NicolasDeL944262]

Wait why doesnt it have the place first like the other ones? Shouldnt it be structured, " From the school the children are coming?"

[AlejandraA142609]

Why the order in this sentence is different?

[Cath901060]

Why do i not get the correct turkish spelling?
