In English, questions answerable by Yes or No have rising intonation (the intonation goes up at the end), while other questions have falling intonation. Is this the same in Turkish? For example: Gidiyor musun? Since it´s a Yes/No question, does it also follow a rising intonation?

No. In Turkish sentences, stress is on the word preceding the verb or the question participle. If you want to place emphasis on a certain word, you can construct your sentences accordingly though:

Dün seni gördüm. I saw you yesterday

Seni dün gördüm. I saw you yesterday

Seni dün ben gördüm. I saw you yesterday

Eve gidiyor musun? Are you going home ?

Eve mi gidiyorsun? Are you going home ?

Eve sen mi gidiyorsun? Are you going home ?

The words in bold are stressed and pronounced louder.

Thanks so much! Quick question, though: Are there instances when rising intonation is used in Turkish?
