My example for you is this:

Hayatında en önemli olan şey nedir?

What is the most important thing to be in your life?

Hastanede yasak olan şeylerden sigaradır.

Cigarette is one of the forbidden things at the hospital.

En çok ihtiyacın olan insan kimdir?

Who is the person you are in need of the most ?

Please wait for advanced learners or natives...Smile

In a very old post I found this explanation...It may help you:

Your last question:
Yes olan and olmayan are the participle of olmak (to be) and olmamak (to not be).

olan = ol-an (V + -(y)an suffix)
olmayan = olma-(y)an (V + -(y)an suffix)

Rica ederim Hindistan{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}. It was a tiny contribution, but I am sure that there will be other friends who will explain and give more interesting examples. Smile
