Learning Turkish and its grammar

Hi everybody!

Today I will try to teach you learning Turkish!  Here, I left some examples about Turkish language and its grammar, enjoy it!

Word list – Let’s learn some words first!! 🙂

Merhaba = hello

Selam = hi

Ben = me

Sen = you

Biz = we

Siz = you (for more than one person and also used for more polite way to say “you” for one person)

Kendi = own (Kendim = my own self, kendin = your own self)

Benim = my

Git = go

Gel = come

Nasıl = how

İyi = good, fine

Kötü = bad

Bil = know

Ye = eat

İç = drink

Ev = home

Uç = fly

Yap = make,do

Ver = give

Al = get,take

Yürü = walk

Koş = run

Konuş = speak

To (do) examples

To do,to go,to walk,to get etc.. words in Turkish is like git-mek gel-mek, yürü-mek (includes -mek, mak etc at the end of the word.  Mak and mek which included contributed to say like “to do,to go,to get,to etc. etc..”   depends on the word’s pronounciation, gitmek = to go  and  olmak = to be  it changes to mak or mek because the word before it has pronounciation difference “)

For example: I want to make pasta =  Makarna yapmak(to make) istiyorum.

Gitmek = to go

Gelmek = to come

Uçmak = to fly

İstemek = to want

Sana = to you

Bana = to me

Bize = to us

Bilmek = to know

“t o where” examples

This is like “I’m going home” eve gidiyorum

Ev = home | eve = to (home)

İş = office | işe = to office

Okul = school | okula = to school

In Turkish, when you need to use “to (anywhere)” then you have to put e,a,ye,ya at the end of the word. It must not be seperated after the word.  a,e,ye,ya are used to determine the target for like  where you’re going to or what address you’re sending to and they (a,e,ya,ye) are not stable and can change with other words, it depends on the pronounciation of the word.  If the word is  “iş”  you have to put “e” at the end to determine “to office”.   The word Okul doesn’t require “e” at the end because it’s pronounciation is a bit different. You can understand this logic later, you have to practice it..  It’s like countable and uncountable things in English , you have to guess e or a or ye or ya for it depends on it’s pronounciation 🙂

-ing..  examples

This is like go-ing,fly-ing,com-ing etc..”

Gidiyor = going

Geliyor = coming

Uçuyor = flying

Alıyor = getting, taking

I’m/we’re/they’re  …-ing

To determine for I’m “…ing”

I’m ..ing – The word “um” at the end of -ing (yor) determines for I’m …ing (going,walking,coming etc..)

Geliyorum = i’m coming

Gidiyorum = i’m going

Yürüyorum = i’m walking

Without the “um” word, it will sound like just “coming” (doesn’t specify about what’s coming); geliyor = coming, gidiyor = going , yürüyor = walking” but when you add the “um” word at the end then it specifies that “you are” coming,going,walking etc..

You’re ..ing – The word “sun” at the end of -ing (yor) determines for you are …ing (go-ing,walk-ing,com-ing etc..)

Geliyorsun = you’re coming

Gidiyorsun = you’re going

Yürüyorsun = you’re walking

We’re ..ing – The word “uz” at the end of -ing (yor) determines for we’re …ing (going,walking,coming etc..)

Geliyoruz = we’re coming

Gidiyoruz = we’re going

Yürüyoruz = we’re walking

They’re ..ing – Those words “lar or ler (depends on the pronounciation)” at the end of -ing (yor) determines for they’re …ing (going,walking,coming etc..)

Geliyorlar = they’re coming

Gidiyorlar = they’re going

Yürüyorlar = they’re walking

It’s ..ing  –  As you know that in English, they call each as she or he..  But this doesn’t apply in Turkish. In Turkish, there is only one word to call for (she/he/it) they only say “o” for she/he/it.

O geliyor = It’s coming

O gidiyor = It’s going

O yürüyor = It’s walking

Turkish Grammar – For example

Turkish grammar may look so different and very difficult but don’t forget that,every language in this life has its own difficulty.. You can learn this language in a short time if you study it well of course..

+word +ing +you’re or I am / they’re / we’re

For a word, choose a word from words list (scroll up to see the word list)

Selected word: Yürü (walk) now we will make this word for “I’m walking”
