Quoting Meriem:

Mr. Caliptrix:

scuse me... why you ask: to eat (irregular) ???

There are only one verb to say, may be i don't understand your question.

Mery



1. dont say "Mr.Caliptrix", here is not an office
2. i am turkish but not a turkish teacher so i dont know whether the verb "yemek" has not regular form... that means this.
3. that was not a question, just a clama about "i am not sure"

Mr. Calptrix:

Sorry. I have other question:

Why you changed the "e" by "i" on verb: yemek???

------------------------------------------------------
yemek = to eat(irregular?)
Ben yiyiyorum Ben yedim Ben yiyecegim
Sen yiyiyorsun Sen yedin Sen yiyeceksin
O yiyiyor O yedi O yiyecek
------------------------------------------------------

Thanks in advance for your help.



i dont know the rule, it is what i know since i was born.

demek: ben diyorum,sen diyorsun,o diyor
no: deyorum<<<---false
yes: diyorum<<<---true

yemek: ben yiyiyorum<<< this is also a different one, not like "demek" or the others...

Greetings,
For a list of tenses please check this thread:
Tenses in Turkish:
http://www.turkishclass.com/forumTitle_6_2565

If you haven't already downloaded winmekmak I suggest downloading it. Winmekmak is your biggest help with verbs.
http://www.ipb.nu/winmekmak/

A discussion on "yemek" can be found here:
Shortened form of future tense:
http://www.turkishclass.com/forumTitle_6_560_3

It looks like it is only me and caliptrix who conjugate the verb 'yemek' as yiyiyorum and not yiyorum. caliptrix are you from İzmir as well? Maybe this is the reason for it, I don't know.
People even say "Ali yemek yiyor" instead saying "Ali yemek yiyiyor". Anyway, more discussion is in that thread.

Quoting Kadir37:

You can use demek => diyiyor?

I use yiyor & diyor:

ben yiyorum/diyorum
sen yiyorsun/diyorsun
o yiyor/diyor
biz yiyoruz/diyoruz
siz yiyorsunuz/diyorsunuz
onlar yiyorlar/diyorlar



Hayır diyiyor diye hiç duymadım.

Quoting Kadir37:

But why you conjugate it as 'yiyiyor'?
You can use demek => diyiyor?



That's what I was thinking as well.. could you guys please explain? :-S

Yup - a further explanation of this would be good

I can totally understand yiyiyor as the verb stem of yemek is single syllable ending in a vowel......but surely if you use yiyiyor then you must also use diyiyor.

Are yemek and demek the only two verbs to have a single syllable verb stem that ends with a vowel??? I assume that yamak is never used as a verb!

I am sorry - but this is one of my absolute pet hates......
When I started to learn Türkçe last November I started by copying the characters from other places but that is tedious. So I wrote a custom keyboard layout that allows a standard English keyboard to display the Türkçe characters without interfering with the usual English characters.

It is freely available to anyone who wants it!
Get it here!

I have problems:
Error reading from file: uJK-Tur.dll
Verify thath te file exist and that you can acces it.



This is because you are trying to run the installer from within the zipped file. You must first extract all the files.......

If you are using Windows XP the 'Exract all files' option is top left of the viewing window!
