==== Postpredicate ==== The postpredicate position signifies what is referred to as background information in Turkish — information that is assumed to be known to both the speaker and the listener, or information that is included in the context. Consider the following examples:<ref name=":14" /> {| class="wikitable" !Sentence type !Word order ! ! |- |Nominal |S-predicate |{{lang|tr|Bu ev güzelmiş}} (apparently this house is beautiful) |unmarked |- | |Predicate-s |{{lang|tr|Güzelmiş bu ev}} (it is apparently beautiful, this house) |it is understood that the sentence is about this house |- |Verbal |SOV |{{lang|tr|Bana da bir kahve getir}} (get me a coffee too) |unmarked |- | | |{{lang|tr|Bana da getir bir kahve}} (get me one too, a coffee) |it is understood that it is a coffee that the speaker wants |}
