gel+me+m (negative meaning)

gelirim is the positive form.

Quoting eestlane:

First, one vowel cannot be followed by another vowel.

So gel-me-irim wouldn't be OK.
That would be gelme-r-im instead but that's not the case for this suffix.

-(i)r/-(e)r suffix becomes -z for negative verbs. And for the 1st person (both sing. and pl.) we have an irregularity.

gel-ir-im gel-me-m ( < gel-me-z-im)
gel-ir-sin gel-me-z-sin
gel-ir gel-me-z
gel-ir-iz gel-me-yiz ( < gel-me-z-iz)
gel-ir-siniz gel-me-z-siniz
gel-ir-ler gel-me-z-ler

And they are all because of sound changes.

Are these correct?

Gelmiyorum - I am not coming

Gelmedim - I didnt come

Gelmecegim - I will not come

Thanks

Evet.hepsi doğru.
ama "Gelmecegim" değil "Gelmeyeceğim" olmalı.
