=== Turkish === {{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=3 |Sen-i gör-dü-'''m''' |2SG-ACC see-PAST-'''1SG''' |('''I''') saw you.}} The subject "I" above is easily inferable as the verb ''gör-mek'' "to see" is conjugated in the first person simple past tense form. The object is indicated by the pronoun ''seni'' in this case. Strictly speaking, pronominal objects are generally explicitly indicated, although frequently possessive suffixes indicate the equivalent of an object in English, as in the following sentence. {{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=3 |Gel-diğ-'''im'''-i gör-dü-'''n''' mü? |come-NMLZ-POSS.1SG-ACC see-PAST-'''2SG''' Q |Did '''you''' see '''me''' coming?}} In this sentence, the object of the verb is actually the action of coming performed by the speaker (''geldiğimi'' "my coming"), but the object in the English sentence, "me", is indicated here by the possessive suffix '''''-im''''' "my" on the nominalised verb. Both pronouns can be explicitly indicated in the sentence for purposes of emphasis, as follows: {{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=3 |'''Sen''' '''ben-im''' gel-diğ-im-i gör-dü-n mü? |'''2SG''' '''1SG-POSS''' come-"ing"-POSS.1SG-ACC see-PAST-'''2SG''' Q |Did '''''you''''' see '''''me''''' coming?}}
