sürerler

Sürerler is a Turkish verb form that corresponds to the present indicative third-person plural of the verb sürmek, meaning that it describes actions by multiple subjects. The form is built from the stem sür- with the present-tense suffix -er and the plural suffix -ler, yielding sürerler for “they drive,” “they last,” or “they apply,” depending on the sense of sürmek in a given sentence.

In usage, sürmek has several core meanings. In the sense of driving a vehicle, it can be used as: Onlar arabayı sürerler, meaning they drive the car. In expressions describing duration, it conveys how long something lasts: Kurslar sekiz hafta sürerler, meaning the courses last eight weeks. In the sense of applying or spreading a substance, it can function as: Boyayı yüzeye sürerler, meaning they apply or spread the paint on the surface. The exact meaning is usually determined by context and accompanying nouns or adjectives.

Morphology and grammar notes are helpful for understanding the form. Turkish marks person and number primarily through the verb form rather than through explicit subject pronouns. The third-person plural form sürerler signals a plural subject (they), while the subject noun itself can be omitted or explicit. The singular third-person form is sürer, and other tenses or moods are formed with different suffixes or auxiliaries.
