Quoting Wilou

Please, can anyone can explain me how does this form is being made?

"Gelen" Gel+?

And how to use it in speaking ?

 

It is present participle. Participles are the adjectives formed from verbs. Here our verb is " gelmek" 

 

If the verb stem ends in a consonant which it does in "gel " , then - en ,an is added.

 

Verb stem + -en, an


 GEL   + EN  ---> the one who [which] comes

 GİT    +  EN --->  the one who [which] goes

 SEV   +   EN  ---> the one who loves

 

 

So  "gelen" is   " the one who comes " [or " came" depends on the context ]

 

For instance ;

Gelen tren --> The train that comes

Her gün saat 5´te gelen tren ---> The train that comes at 5 every day.

--------------------------

Gelen mektup ---> The letter that comes or  the letter that came

Az önce gelen mektubu görebilir miyim ?

--> Can I see the letter that has just arrived ?
