Rules

The Turkish conjugation is very similar to other European languages.


First, you need to take the root of the verb and add the future tense to the end. You can form the future tense in Turkish with the -ecek and -acak additions.


For example, you should start with the verb "to love" (sevmek). The verbal root is sev-. The future addition is, in the first singular, -eceğim. So it will be: sev + eceğim.


"I will always love you (Seni daima seveceğim)". You don't need to use "I" (ben) at the beginning of the sentence because you already express "I" with the -ecek addition. Only if you want to emphasize, you can add the first pronoun "I" (ben).


It works the same way as other European languages. For example, if you want to say "I love you" in Italian, you would say "ti amo". The verb is amare and the verb stem is -am. The first singular addition is -o. Namely the complete sentence is amo. It's the same in Turkish.


Here is the formula to use:

PRONOUNS + VERB + (ECEK / ACAK)
