Enjoy. I like them a lot.

I am no native but I think this interpretation is not possible because it breaks a very basic rule in Turkish syntax: the modifier precedes the modified.

If someone was so kind and helped me with these.

1. Wait a second before you begin speaking. Konuşmaya başlamadan önce biraz bekle.

2. The children waited patiently for the show to begin. Çocuklar temaşanın başlamasını sabırla bekledi.

3. The musicians began by tuning their instruments. Müzisyenler çalgılarını akort ederek başladı.

4. Once you have begun the second section of the test you cannot go back to the first. İkinci parçaya başladıktan sonra birinciye geri dönemezsiniz.

5. They have begun a textile business in Australia. Avustralya’da bir dokumacılık işine başladılar.

6. Are they finished with repaving the streets? Sokakları yine döşeme işiyle bitirdiler mi?

7. When they finished laughing they were on their way to become not just friends but very good friends. Gülmeyi bittikleri an sadece arkadaş değil iyi arkadaş olmaktaydılar.

8. Finland finished the campaign with a dreadful total of ten points from ten matches. Finlandiya mücadeleyi on maçtan aldığı on noktanın iğrenç toplamıyla bitirdi.

9. What would happen if we stopped vaccinations? Aşılamayı bıraksak ne olurdu?

10. The browser has stopped restoring this website. Tarayıcı bu siteyi eski durumuna getirmez oldu.

11. Athens denies it will have to quit eurozone. Atina euro bölümünü bırakmasının gerektiğini inkar ediyor.

On the basis of the given information it very much looks like shaytan himself. But why don´t you enlighten us, AlphaF.

I think the aspectual system of Turkish is very developed and very often when we talk about tenses we should talk about aspects actually. This should be taken into account better by those who plan big guidelines of how Turkish should be taught.

Both -(A/I)r and -(I)yor always denote imperfective aspect but in a different way. Examples like

represent habitual use of -(I)yor which is sometimes difficult for a learner to grasp. Good to see your examples side by side, tunci. It looks clear here.

On some level agglutinativity is all about word order. One of the features often connected to this type of languages is use of postpositions. It sounds random but it is not. What are postpositions (which are half lexical half grammatical elements) doing there after nouns? Of course waiting for their chance to get attached to the end of the word and to become suffixes with the full rights of grammatical elements.

What do words dream of? Of becoming suffixes.

These prove that our nose is always pointing to the future.

There are similar secondary uses of tenses in other languages, too. They are like small lies. When we have a deadline for a certain job we tend to pretend we are almost ready even if we didn´t do anything yet.

The latter case, using present continuous for future, is not easy for a learner. You need to be aware of some nuances. scalpel wrote about it here. "Future significance", he said.
