Relative Pronouns is the sixty-fourth skill (assuming read left to right) in the language tree for Turkish. It has one lesson and teaches the construction of relative phrases in Turkish.
Grammar Notes[]
Instead of words such as "who", "which", and "that" for relative pronouns, Turkish adds a suffix to the verb and then uses the entire phrase as an adjective for the person. This suffix is -(y)An, and it attaches to the verb stem:
- Verb stem + (y)An
It is then placed just before the person who is doing the thing in question. Normal word order is preserved for such phrases as well.
