Eğer kardeş önce Ikindi Namazı gelse, Cami´ye gel lütfen söyle.

 

(please wait for other corrections, but i believe this makes more sense. {#emotions_dlg.bigsmile} )

Yes, it makes more sense.

 

Here is how we would say it:

 

İkindi namazından önce gelirse lütfen (or bir zahmet) camiye gelmesini söyle

or

İkindi namazından önce gelirse lütfen (or bir zahmet) söyle camiye gelsin

How do you construct the "gelirse" sentence? What does the "ir" mean?

I can understand gel and sen, but not the ir affixation.

 

Thank you

It is gel + ir + (i)se.  The -ir suffix is one of the simple present suffixes http://www.turkishclass.com/turkish_lesson_74 

 

The ´ise´ gives the meaning of ´if´ but it is changed to a suffix -se or -sa depending on vowel harmony

 

So the word has the meaning of if he/she/it comes

 

Hope that helps a bit
