Thankyou!.
So why is there ´gelip´ that looks like there is come twice. And how do we know the ´me´ is not negative?
What does the sentence I wrote mean - or someone would interpret it likely the same but it´s wrong grammatically?
The gerund -IP itself does not convey a specific time but it builds a connection between two verbs.
Verb stem positive +ıp ip up üp + Verb stem (same verb) negative + ecek/acak + possessive ending + case endings if required
The above formula is used when translating the sentences where WHETHER and IF could be used interchangeable in English.
verb gelMEK come twice in your sentence yes. It is how we construct this type of sentences.
We know ‘’me ‘’ is negative because of positive is not possible with this structure.
In Turkish mind we form that type of sentence as --------
Only you asked whether were coming to come to Turkey OR (we are ) not (coming ) .
Türkiye´ye gelip gelmeyeceğimizi sadece sen sordun.
The problem with your original sentence is , there is mistake in terms of grammar, therefore the meaning is not clear.. unless we add ‘’ gelip ‘’ before ‘’ gelmediğimizi ‘’
Sadece sen Türkiye’ye gelip gelmediğimizi sordun.
In that case ‘’the meaning ‘’ will change-----------Only you asked if we came to Türkiye (or we didn’t come to Türkiye)
The sentence becomes past tense sentence.
