How can one state that one will be in a location?
For example "soon I will be in Turkia"
Is it something like this?
Biraz sonra Türkiye'de oleceğim

Oh dear - why did I forget my vowel harmony - *slaps wrist*
So am I right in thinking that past tense "was" is expressed with a suffix but future tense "will be" is expressed with olacağım?
For example:
mutludı - he was happy
mutlu olacağım - he will be happy
Türkiye'dedim - I was in Turkia
Türkiye'de olacağım - I will be in Turkia

Türkiye'deYdim - I was in Turkia
Türkiye'de olacağım[/b] - I will be in Turkia |
Why do we need a y buffer consonant here???
We do not have one for past tense verbs - for example:
bekledim - not bekleydim - I waited

beklemek is a verb
but
mutlu is an adjective
bekledim: i waited
mutlu idim = mutlydum : i was happy
more:
öğrenci is a noun;
öğrenciydim: i was a student
hızlıydım: i was fast
iyiydim: i was fine

Is it something like this?

soon means sometimes: yakında
like in the cinemas:
"coming soon!" we translate it: yakında sinemalarda (soon in the cinemas)
yakında Türkiye'de olacağım
