Quoting miss_ceyda:

so, when u say 'there' do u mean physically there (with the person) karşında olabilir mi yani?



To my knowledge, I'd say not really, you not any one else did somthing bad or you knew definitely and directly that he/she got angry and in either of these two contexts, we say 'inşallah kızmadın'. (Is there any other context in which we say it?:-S )

Quoting miss_ceyda:

like if i annoyed someone on msn whilst speaking to them.. which one would it be?



I'd say 'inşallah kızmadın'.

Doğru mu?

Could someone correct me where i'm going wrong?
Thanks in advance.

The verb 'to be' --- 'olmak'

Hope this helps you out.

I thought that the -dir ending was used in only two places,
1. to emphasise a fact that doesn't change,
2. used as is in a formal conversation.

This is why I really don't understand how İnşallah kızmamışsındır can adapt this suffix, especially due to the fact that it wasn't used in a formal context.
Also, how does the verb olmak help me here?
