Turkish Adjectives & Numbers
Turkish adjectives come before the noun and never change to agree with it: "büyük ev" (big house), "büyük evler" (big houses). Comparison is made with "daha" (more) and "en" (most).
This section also covers numbers, which behave like adjectives — after a number the noun stays singular: "üç kitap" (three books).
