Merhaba,

 

Do you mean making new words by adding suffixes after words?

Such as adding a suffix after a verb and making a noun:

gez(mek)(to tour) + -i = gezi (tour, journey)

 

or what is it?

Merhaba OT. An addition to what Faruk hocam is asking, suffixes will be a major part of learning Turkish.

Though, when I started learning Turkish, a year and 2 months ago, I was told by a native Türkçe tutor to start with three aspects of the grammar;

Alphabet So you can learn how each letter is pronounced and this will help you with vowel harmony.

Personal pronouns and  how to say such as "I am happy", "she is quick", "you are beautiful" etc. You know, simple sentences.

 "Vowel Harmony" because that is used in almost all Türkçe, to determine how a word or sentence is written and spoken.

I don´t hear from that Türk anymore, but his suggestions helped to build the bit of Türkçe knowledge I have today, and will continue to as I learn more. And This site is a blessing for learners because there are some kind native Turks who are generously taking time to help learners with the language and they do a very good job.Smile

 

Ot, hayırlı olsun Türkçen ile (good luck with your Turkish)Smile
