Quoting MarioninTurkey: The only irregular verb in Turkish is "to be". These sentences DO have verbs, they are just irregular forms of the verb to be.
I have put the verbs in the following sentences in capitals:
değil is a verb when it works like "is not"
e.g. Cem evde DEĞİL = Cem IS NOT at home
yok is a verb when it works like "there is not any"
e.g. Çayda şeker YOK = There IS NO sugar in the tea
-ma -me is part of a verb
e.g. ANLAMIYORUM = I DO NOT UNDERSTAND
Var mı is the Question form of "to be" = are there?
mı? can be the question form of to be = is he/she or are you?
e.g. Uçakta doktor VAR MI? IS THERE a doctor on the plane
Evet VAR, Yes THERE IS
İngiliz MİSİN? ARE YOU English?
We are very lucky that this is the only irregular verb in Turkish!!!! Otherwise we would need these discussions about many many verbs  |
No,i dont think you can say değil is a verb and yok is a verb
They are not
Any verb in Turkish must have master ended with mAk,mEk and it doesnt go on değil and yok..
Yok is the case of not existence,as same as var is the case of existence.
Değil is same as not,its added to verb to be sentence 'olmak'
mA and mE is forming a new verb but a negative one
My turkish teacher explained it that way.
When you add mA to a verb,you are making a new verb and you treat it that way
Meaning when you add kisi eki,or some other suffix,you do it after mA ,mE
mA,mE has an irregular form when it comes with Şimdiki Zaman,it turns out to be mI and form 4 forms with it
mİ ,mI ,mÜ,mU,
