  • 17:20, 7 July 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Accusative (Created page with "The Accusative case is used to mark the object of a transative verb. Normally, English uses word order for this purpose. * I'll clean '''the table''' right now. In Turkish, the Accusative case is used for this instead. This allows the word order to be used for other purposes, such as to indicate stress. * Şimdi '''masayı''' temizleyeceğim. * '''Masayı''' şimdi temizleyeceğim. This also allows us to express the distinction between definite and indefinite nouns i...") Tag: Visual edit: Switched
  • 09:03, 13 June 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Derivation (Created page with " As new concepts are invented, languages naturally need to invent new vocabulary to accommodate for them. This is done through derivation, the process of creating new words from existing words. In Turkish, this is mostly done through suffixation, and subsequently, Turkish contains a large number of derivational suffixes for this job. == Background == Before the language reform of 1928, derivation through Arabic inflection was commonplace. While words derived in this man...") Tag: Visual edit
  • 12:28, 12 June 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/imek (Created page with "In Turkish/Nominal Sentences, it was claimed that there was no Turkish equivelant for the verbs ''to be'' and ''to have''. This is only partially true. The verb ''imek'', which is only arguably a verb, functions similar to the verb ''to be'' in Western languages. ''imek'' may be appended to noun phrases, or verbs with a tense or mood declension to convey its meaning. The details of this construction shall be discussed in this article. == Declension of ''imek'' == '...") Tag: Visual edit: Switched
  • 15:50, 30 May 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Converbs (Created page with "Converbs are a feature that is quite unique to Turkish grammar. If your native language isn't a Mongolic or Tungusic language, relating ideas through converbs should be pretty new to you. Converbs allow us to use subordinate clauses adverbially. While English uses conjunctions for this purpose, in Turkish, the verb receives a special ending instead. Compare the following examples: * <u>Sınavın bitince</u> beni ara. ''Call me <u>after your exam is over.</u>'' While T...") Tag: Visual edit

We will be covering all the ways we can modify a noun with another noun, or an adjective. == Possessive endings == While English has words like ''my'', ''your'', ''his'', ''her''; we primarily use suffixes in Turkish instead.

  • 14:02, 8 March 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Causative (Created page with "The causative voice is the second productive voice in Turkish. It is very productive, meaning almost any verb can receive it. It is used to make an intransative verb transative, or to make an already transative verb causative. == Formation == The causative voice is quite irregular compared to other features of Turkish grammar. The main ending used for this is ''-dır-'', with respect to 4-way vowel harmony as well as consonant harmony. {| {{Turkish/Table|||width=20%|co...") Tag: Visual edit
  • 17:05, 7 March 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Passive (Created page with "The Passive Voice should be very familiar to speakers of English as well as most other European languages, and it exists in Turkish as well. This is accomplished with the suffixes ''-ıl-'' and ''-ın-'' in Turkish. This article will cover this construction in greater detail. == Formation == Verb stems ending in consonants take the ending ''-ıl-'', with respect to 4-way vowel harmony. {| {{Turkish/Table|||width=10%|columns=1}} ! {{tr/word|gör|see}}{{tr/suff|ül|color=...")

  • 15:57, 14 February 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/Necessative (Created page with "This article is about expressing necessity in Turkish. While English uses auxillary verbs like ''should'', ''must'', ''have to'' or ''need to'', Turkish has a seperate declension of the verb for this, ''-malı/meli''. There are other clauses showing necessity using the Infinitive, so learning that first may be useful to the reader. == Formation of ''-malı/meli'' == The suffix ''-malı/meli'' obeys 2-way vowel harmony, and uses the regular persona...")

The main two tenses we use, Imperative and Optitative, used to be seperate tenses in Turkish, but Imperative is no longer usable in the first person, and Optitative is no longer usable in the second and third persons, merging these two tenses into one big suggestive tense. Unfortunately however, it isn't that simple, since many persons have multiple endings possible, as we will see later. == Form...")

  • 08:41, 6 February 2022 Sinus46 discuss contribs created page Turkish/-ma and -mak (Created page with "''-ma/mak'' is one way of creating verbal nouns. This topic is quite advanced, so this article assumes you have a good grasp on vowel harmony, noun and verb declensions, and basic sentences. ''-ma'' and ''-mak'' do not have any difference in meaning. However, ''-ma'' is used in some declensions, and ''-mak'' is used in others, so they are not interchangable. A subordinate clause without a subject may be constructed using ''-ma/mak'' + case suffixes, and the logical subj...")

Its formation is quite irregular, and its usage is also quite difficult to grasp, making this tense quite a challenge for new learners. == Formation == === Affirmative === ==== Verbs ending in vowels ==== The easiest case is when the verb stem ends in a vowel, where the suffix simply becomes ''-r'', followed by the usual personal endings. {{Turkish/Box||Verb...")

This suffix used to be a full verb ''yormak'', but has turned into a suffix in modern Turkish. Because of this, the ''o'' in the suffix is invariable, and does not harmonize with the stem. Instead, an ''ı, i, u'' or ''ü'' gets added before the suffix, making the full form of the suffix ''-ıyor/-iyor/-uyor/-üyor''. == Formation == === In verbs ending with consonants === When the verb stem ends in a cons...")
