Almost time to start on our next conversation, but before we do let’s recap on some of the lessons we have learnt

Let’s start with the ending mek, which we used to make an informal command

oturmak - to sit or  to live

içmek   - to smoke or to drink

kullanmak - to use

bırakmak - to stop or to give up

istemek - to want

bilmek - to know

konuşmak - to speak

yapmak - to make

 

Then we worked on how to say what's happening by adding iyor and the verb to be (am, are etc)

 i.e -um I'm (I am)

 -sun you're (you are)

-uz were (we are)

- sunuz your (your are)

-lar they're (they are)

 

We also learnt how to change what's happening into what's not happening by just adding -m after the stem

 

and lastly we learnt how to turn these into questions

What’s happening?

geliyor muyum?
