What is the verb to have in Turkish, and how ould one say " I have Turkish friends" Thank you

 

There isn´t a verb as such-var and yok(for- don´t have) are used.

 

So if you want to say ´I have a friend´ put the personal ending on friend=arkadaþým + var

Similarly for you ´arkadaþýN var=you have a friend.

 

I have Turkish friends=Türk arkadaþlarým var.

 

Hope this helps
