Many sentences i read (not in grammarbooks or somethin official, but more between friends in covnersations), have the word 'ya' in it.. mostly at the end if im not wrong.
Can someone tell me the use of this word and what it means?
şimdiden çok teşekkür ederim!

Hi Deli_kizin
When you look in the online dictionary here for ya, I think the first 3 or 4 meanings might be helpful.

Hmm could've done that first before asking
So could we state that 'ya' is put behind the sentence in most of the cases, or behind the word that it makes stronger?
bu mümkün mü yaaaaa?!

When used after certain words, for instance like in "hadi ya" or "yapma ya", it expresses surprise, shock or difficulty in believing on something. It's like saying "I don't believe this".
I would translate both "hadi ya" and "yapma ya" as "really?".
-Tomorrow, Sezen Aksu comes to London.
-Really? Hadi ya!
"Be" in "hadi be" or "yapma be" also expresses surprise with the difference that something must has been missed when you were so close to achieve it. Assuming a footballer misses a goal. At this moment the fans will jump from their seats and will say yapma be!
When added to the end of a sentence 'ya' strenghtens the meaning.
Example:
"Bu müzik çok güzel ya."
"Boşver ya."
When used at the beginning of a sentence it is a preperation to the speech as the person you speak is probably somewhere close but not in sight.
