what is the difference between ´Nasýlsýnýz?´ and ´Nasýlsýn?´..? is it to to with formal and informal?

 

also does it matter which of these sentences you use, are these both correct:  ´Ben güzelim´ or ´Güzelim´..?

 

thank you so much if anyone replies{#lang_emotions_flowers}

 In English there is only one "you" but in Türkçe there is two.. one singular (Sen) other plural (Siz)

 

Yes to be formal and while talking to the people you new met or the elder people to respect you use the PLURAL form..

So you can say Nasýlsýn to friends or your family ... But to the old people, to the elder people when you met new, and in formal relations you say Nasýlsýnýz?

 

and we don´t always use the pronouns in Turkish. Cause the possessive suffixes indicates the subject...So

Ben güzelim. is true way.. But in spoken language we don´t say it, we say Güzelim.

 

But of course sometimes it is needed to stress on the meaning..

I mean like;

 

Nasýlsýn?

Ýyiyim   (instead of Ben iyiyim)

 

But if you want to say that you are beautiful without anyone asks, you should say Ben güzelim.

 

For example again Akýllýyým. Çalýþkaným. Yetenekliyim. So you must give me this job!! haha

 

or  I said him "Ben güzelim."

 

Hope you can understand more over and over.... Practice makes it more clear don´t worry
