Quoting CANLI:

Quoting *Veronica *:

kizmiyon dimi bana .

What does that means ??

Hugs



Ok,its not easy,even its short,i guess something wrong with it.

Could be,

Kızmıyorsun dimi bana,
You are not getting angry text at me

Or,

Kızmıyor dimi bana.

text not getting angry at me ?!!

Both way,i don't get dimi !

Sorry,that is far i can get,hope someone correct soon !



Kızmıyorsun, değil mi, bana?

ordinary sentence:

Bana kızmıyorsun, değil mi?

means:

"You are not angry with me, are you?"

if you see a suffix "-yon" you should guess that it is "-yorsun"

gidiyon mu?
true one: gidiyor musun?

that is about the accent and you cant use it on the writing.

Kolay gelsin

it is "for that reason"

I am intrested in computers, for that reason i decided to be a computer engineer

Bilgisayarlarla ilgileniyorum, bü yüzden bilgisayar mühendisi olmaya karar verdim.

It can be also "o yüzden":

I must wake up early tomorrow, so i will go to bed early.

Yarın erken kalkmalıyım, o yüzden erken yatacağım

Quoting Deli_kizin:

Tamam. Herkese teşekkür ediyorum

Ben miş'li zamanı çok seviyorum ya, bazen kullanırken (?) tatlı gibi bana geliyor.



"tatlı gibi geliyor" should used together. put "bana" just before "tatlı":

bana tatlı gibi geliyor

or you dont need to say "gibi":

bana tatlı geliyor

by the way, must all girls use the word "sweet" as "nice"?lol

I think you shouldnt think that the second is the MAIN verb. Main verb, i mean the real activity.

I go to home << activity is "to go"
I go to shopping << activity is "to go"
I want to go << activity is "to want"
You come to us << activity is "to come"

but if you say:
I go to the shop which is near to stadium << here activity is still "to go", as you see there is one more verb "is" (to be), but it is not the main verb. I mean not the activity of the main sentence.

I want to go swimming << activity is "to want". You may go or not, so go is not the main verb, or "swimming"

yüzmeye gitmek istiyorum

Lets look at this "SOV" stuff:
Subject + Object + Verb

Since we know that Subject in Turkish can be hidden, so we may not see it(it is possible that we cant find it in the sentence).

Now the most important part: Verb

Look at our previous example:
I want to go swimming

As i wrote before, here, the main verb is "to want": istemek
So now, you can think that the others are the verbs of other sentences(clauses) which are to complete the full meaning.
We will put this verb "istemek" at the end with the true suffixes.
Now we have to know the Subject in order to put true suffixes. It is here: "I", so it would be:
istiyorum.

Now we can go on with the rest: Object
It is: to go swimming

Pay attention: here is another two activities now: "to go" and "to swim".
We are talking about swimming but the first idea is "to go": gitmek

We use "istiyorum" with verbs directly:
gitmek istiyorum

and the last part: swimming. this is the part of the activty "to go", it must be like the other "to go" examples:

i go to the cinema:
sinemaya giderim

It goes with the suffix: "-(y)a", so "swimming": yüzme
it must be: yüzmeye

Let's complete it:
(Ben) yüzmeye gitmek istiyorum

I am alittle tired, let me have a break lol
I hope it is helpful... Kolay gelsin.

-miştir should be used with a verb, not?
"Gidelim, babam eve gelmiştir"
Let's go, my father must come home" (i guess he is at home)

gel is the verb root of gelmek
but ayşe is not a verb, by the way, "-miş" says that the event happed in past, so we need a verb. Non-verb, we can't say that there is a time, I guess...

And what about "-mekte"?

Quoting ekd:

I just wanted to check before i make a mistake and look stupid..

öptüm - its not just men say this to women is it, women can say öptüm to men?

Thanks for looking (and sorry if its a stupid question).

ekd. x



I saw that it is like "Tschüss" in German, or "Bye" in English, but not for everyone. It depends on the people, so it can be both men to women, women to men. Also i have heard women to women and maybe just for fun: men to men. lol
