Which place?

 

If one of the Turkish members explained the basic local variabilities it would be interesting. Even though we are learning standard Turkish we see and hear examples of local dialects every day.

Instead of geliyorum, I have heard geliyom used around Istanbul and the Aegean region, and someone told me gelirum is used around the Black Sea region.

I would also be interested in knowing about some regional variations.

i learned at turkish lesson in white sea area of Turkey people speak so. but i think most of people speak so.because it is shorter. also i mostly use shorter version "geliyom". but in writing it must be always true version "geliyorum". i write true version. in black sea area they say "geliyrum". my parents are from blacksea area of Turkey.

in south east of Turkey they say; gelmen mi ? instead of gelmez misin ?

I know that this ending -yom, -yon is used around the İzmir region but it may be also used in some other cities, not sure.{#emotions_dlg.unsure}

However, it is not a common usage in İstanbul.

Also, I recommend every turkish learner to refrain from using it. It does not sound very nice.

Everything else here looks like normal shortening in spoken language (call it accent) but this is a meaningful morphological difference which makes me curious.

in fact, it should be "geliyoz"

Oh. The -k ending bewildered my imagination already. Thank you, mltm.

geliyoz and geliyok are both correct, though in different dialects....

geliyrik is another possibility..

I think that is the total degeneration of the language! {#emotions_dlg.scared}
