Quoting aslan2:

I wish I had a car -- araba-m olsa



Where does "wish" come from ???
Isn't -sa the conditional suffix?

Quoting juliacernat:

merhaba!

why for "I will have a car" you use "arabam olacak" and not "arabam olacagim"?



The person is expressed by the possessive suffix
araba-m olacak -- I will have a car
araba-n olacak -- You will have a car
araba- olacak -- He/She will have a car
araba-mız olacak -- We will have a car
araba-nız olacak -- You will have a car
araba-ları olacak -- They will have a car

Yes. But it is also used for wishes. That's why it is called dilek-şart (wish and condition). So

gelse means either

* I wish he comes

or

* If he came

depending on the context.

And for wishes usually keşke is included in the sentence

Keşke gelse -- I wish he comes/came

Quoting impulse:

I have a car = Bir arabam var.
I had a car / I have had a car = Bir arabam vardı
I will have a car.. = Bir arabam olacak
I would have a car.. = Bir arabam olabilirdi



Then we can say that

Bir arabam olacak
Bir arabam olabilirdi

Here is the usage of olacak with the İsim Cümle ?

Ah!
So if it is not clear from context, eğer[/b] or [i]keşke are used to show which meaning is intented?

bod,

İf it is a wish,it would come directly after the verb stem,only one suffix can come before it,and which is (mA) negative

And as you know,Türkçede,it doesn't really considered a suffix,it considered a new verb

And wish form got only 2 forms

Eylem +(mA ) sA +kişi eki

And

Eylem + (mA ) sA +y + dI + kişi eki .....this one is past
