How do you construct simple sentences with 2 verbs, such as "I want to speak with you" or "Do you want to ask me any questions?"

Is the 2nd verb in the infinitive form?

Thanks much in advance! I am relying on good Turkish insight on this one!!

Have a great day!

Yes, the second verb is in the infinitive. But don't forget that Turkishis "back to front" from English, so you put the 2nd verb (in infinitive) first, and then the 1st verb second!

I want to speak with you: Seninle konuşmak istiyorum
Do you want to ask me any questions: Bana sormak istediğin soruların var mı? (Literally in Turkish we ask are there any Q you want to ask me)

I want to go to the park: Parka gitmek istiyorum
He will want to be my friend: Arkadaşımı olamk isteyecek
