- Esi [Ası]   var [yok] 

 

This construction comes onto verb stem to express our desire for doing something. 

It is negated with "yok".

 

 Verb stem + esi [ası] + Personal marking      +       var   [yok]

 

  git             +   esi        +    m                            +       var  

 

  gidesim  var ---> I have desire to  go 

 

 Bugün  parka  gidesim  var. ---->  I have  desire to go to the park.

                                                     [ I feel like going to the park]

 

 

 Yarın işe gidesim yok --->  I have no desire to go to work tomorrow.

                                           [ I  don´t feel like going to work tomorrow]

Are these special verbs or it is a common rule could be applied on other verbs because it may confuse me with the -ip suffix rule

Quoting HaNNo

 

 

Are these special verbs or it is a common rule could be applied on other verbs because it may confuse me with the -ip suffix rule

 

 

They are fixed expressions formed of two verbs by using -ip. You can form them with many other verbs as long they are used in a right context and they make sense together. 

For example ;

Gelip gitmek =  to come and go. 

Gelip gitmesi zor bir yer. ---> It is difficult to visit [to go] that place [beacuse it is far or the road is bad...etc]

 =======================

Okuyup incelemek = to read review

Raporu okuyup incelemem lazım ---> I need to read and review the report.

Functions of  buffer " n "

 

 

1. When a pronoun takes case ending, we put "n" between.

 

O - n - a   ---->  Ona ----> to him

 

O - n - dan  ----> Ondan ----> from  him

 

Bu + n + u    söyledi  --->  He said  this.  

 

 

2.  In noun phrases, just after possessive ending.

 

Selim´in   kitabı + n + ı  aldım.   --->  I took  Selim´s  book.

 

Babamın  arabası + + ı   yıkadım ------> I washed  my father´s car.

 

 

3. It is also used before the genitive ending. 

 

Kapı + + ın    kolunu  kırdım. ---->  I broke the door´s  handle.

 

Sene  + +  in    başında  bu konuyu görüşmüştük ---> In the begining of the year, we had discussed this issue.

 

Bu günlerde  para + n + ın     kıymeti yok. -----> Money has no value nowadays.

Cacophony in some adjectives

 

When some adjectives  ending  with consonant ´k´, take intensifying suffix "cIk" , it sounds discordantly and inharmoniously. Therefore we see the "k"  dropping.

 

 

ufak = small ====>  ufak + cık ----->  ufacık  ----->  very small [tiny]

 

 

küçük = small  -----> küçük + cük  ----> küçücük  ---> very small [tiny]

 

 

sıcak  = hot, warm     -----> sıcak + cık   -----> sıcacık    ----> pleasantly warm, warm and cozy
