Q

There are so many places that I have a hard time choosing.

A

“Ki” is a Turkish word that is used to introduce a subordinate clause in a sentence. In English, it can be roughly translated to “that” or “which.” It helps connect the main clause of the sentence with additional information or context provided by the subordinate clause. In the context of the sentence you provided, “ki” is used to connect the first part of the sentence (“O kadar çok yer var”) with the second part (“seçmekte zorlanıyorum”). The entire sentence conveys the idea that the abundance of places is causing difficulty in choosing.

“Zorlanıyorum” translates to “I am struggling” or “I am having difficulty” in English. It’s a verb form derived from the root “zor” which means “difficult.” The “-lan-“ infix and the personal ending “-ıyorum” together indicate the present tense first person singular form of the verb “zorlanmak,” meaning “to struggle” or “to have difficulty.” In the context of the sentence, it signifies the challenge the speaker is facing in making a decision among the many options.
