seriously ...

 

It is the "soft infinitive"

 

geçmek: to pass

 

geçmesini: its passing

 

 

So "iyi geçmesini diliyorum" : I wish that it goes well

 

You are right it does look like the negative, but you get it from the sense of the sentence, and from the endings added to it.

 

iyi geçmemesini diliyorum (sounds really funny!!): I wish that it doesn´t go well.

 

You can also put all the other personal endings on:

 

olmak: to be

 

olmasýný: its being.

olmamýz: our being

olamanýz: your being

 

iyi olmanýzý diliyorum: I wish you will be well

babanýz doktor olmanýzý istiyor: your dad wants you to be a doctor

yaramaz olmamýzý düþünüyor: he thinks we are naughty.

Quoting Tazx1

Translation of the following sentence has not been understood. Can Marionin Turkey {or someone just as expert]kindly help?

 

>>Bizde sizin noelnizi kutlar guzel gecmesin dilerim.<<

 

geçsin = let it pass [may it pass]

 

geçmesin = May it NOT pass ??? Am I right?? Hence:-

 

>>We also wish your New Year not to pass nicely.<< !!!!!!!!????????????

 

Tazx1

 

I got confused as well

Thank you Mrionin, go and enjoy your poison, iyi olmanýzý diliyorum.

 

Being uninitiated, "geçme-sin" troubled me > according to you it ought to be "geçme-si(n)-i".   I get it.  Thanks
