Looking again I think you are right......

My thought was:
öğren-me-dim

Verb stem + verbal noun suffix + first person past suffix

just quickly ok...

ill just give some examples and u can work it out k? hehe




bi haftadır karnım ağrıyor= my stomach has been hurting for a week

iki gündür onu göremiyorum= i havent been able to see him for 2 days

1 senedir sigara kullanıyorum= i have been smoking for one year



this -dir suffix shows something which has started before and is still carrying on. thats why the -iyor tense is used with it
