Hi ladywriter,
I agree with you on going step by step. With the topic below my intention was to cover all tenses one by one. But it stopped after this one. So we only have number one. I'm not sure if there is interest to continue the series with other tenses.

There are many possibilities with the infinitive (the dictionary form of a verb in Turkish). I have given some examples and exercises there.

These charts are extremelly useful and needed of course. I printed them all out. It will be my Bible.
I just would like to point out some minor spelling mistakes:

At the chart of the Narratives of Simple Tenses
2nd person singular should be GELMIşTIN (not gelmiştim)

At the chart of the reported Tenses
GELIYORMUşSUNUZ can not be 3rd person plural

But I am sure everybody got them right. Felaket gibi değil

dilbilgisi için çok teşekkür ederim.
bana çok yardım etti

ceviz,
thank you. Both mistakes are now corrected.

  Thanks Erdinç,thats really great

Adding the translation will make it as brief note for us ´learners´ of the meaning and differences between tenses

İm not with removing the conjugation tho,putting it is telling what the tense all about,but i would suggest that at the last colum,you write the two words after one another instead of beside each other

This way i mean,

gelmeliymiş /

 gelmelilermiş

Not this

gelmeliyse /gelmeliyseler

İt will make it smaller and will fit in the page i guess.

There are too many sticky thread in language forum. I think we should remove a few but don´t want to remove other people´s threads. I think the best things would be if somebody would create a list of most useful threads.

I have added this topic to the sticky thread of mine called useful links.  

Good idea,i think we can use it too.
