I didnt understand neither

 

but i think you mean olmak.

idim, idin,... etc is the past tense of olmak, but there´s no such verb as imek.

 

look here for lessons:

Quoting izah

what´s imek?

 It is verb (to be) in english

for exampel I like to say (I am happy) or (he is good)

or (you are cute)

Aha

 

I am: -(y)im -(y)ým -(y)üm -(y)um

for example: I am happy= Mutlu-yum= Mutluyum

 

You are: -sin -sýn -sün -sun

for example: You are cute= Tatlý-sýn= Tatlýsýn

 

It/He/she is: -dir -dýr -dür -dur or nothing

for example: He is a doctor= O bir doktor(dur)

"Öðretmenim" is enough as the m already indicates that the subject is "Ben". However, depending on the context, "Ben öðretmenim" or "Ben bir öðretmenim" is just fine. "Ben öðretmen" or "Öðretmen ben" might also be acceptable in some situations.

it´s not about the ben but about the idim

I just find some difficult with turkish

I am trying hard but my turkish steel so bad

for example names can take suffix of past tens

It makes me crazy

also (mi) can take the same suffix like (miydi)

I can use tenses with verbs but become conffused with nouns

i can understand that... if you´re not used to noun sentences its different, but you´ll become used to it!

think of the verb olmak on the end of the sentence but without a space. that is all!

 

öðrenciydiniz - you were students

öðrenci miydiniz? - were you students?

 

when you sepparate it you just ´see the verb´ ýn the suffýx:

 

öðrenci-y-di-niz

noun-buffer-verb-person

 

öðrenci mi-y-di-niz

noun question particle-buffer-verb-person
