The past | === Understanding the Past Tense in Tatar === | ||
The past tense in Tatar is used to describe actions that happened in the past. This can include anything from daily activities to significant events in your life. | |||
In Tatar, the past tense is generally formed by modifying the verb stem. Regular verbs follow predictable patterns, while irregular verbs may not, requiring memorization. | |||
=== Regular Verbs Conjugation === | |||
Regular verbs in Tatar typically follow a systematic approach. Here’s a simple breakdown of how to conjugate regular verbs in the past tense: | |||
1. For '''present tense''' verbs ending in -у (-u) or -ю (-yu), you usually replace these endings with -ды (-dy) or -де (-de) for the past tense. | |||
2. The ending also changes based on the subject pronoun. | |||
Here’s a table to illustrate this: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | {| class="wikitable" | ||
! Tatar !! Pronunciation !! English | ! Tatar !! Pronunciation !! English | ||
|- | |||
| бардым || bardym || I went | |||
|- | |||
| бардың || bardyng || You (singular) went | |||
|- | |||
| барды || bardy || He/She/It went | |||
|- | |||
| бардык || bardyk || We went | |||
|- | |||
| бардыгыз || bardygyz || You (plural/formal) went | |||
|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| бардылар || bardylar || They went | |||
|} | |||
Let’s take a closer look at some '''examples''' of regular verbs conjugated in the past tense: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||

|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| укыдым || ukydym || I read | |||
|- | |- | ||

| укыдың || ukydyng || You (singular) read | |||
|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| укыды || ukydy || He/She/It read | |||
|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| укыдык || ukydyk || We read | |||
|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| укыдыгыз || ukydygyz || You (plural/formal) read | |||
|- | |- | ||
| | |||
| укыдылар || ukydylar || They read | |||
|} | |} | ||
=== Irregular Verbs Conjugation === | |||
Irregular verbs do not follow the standard rules of conjugation. Here, learning them can be a bit tricky, but with practice, it will become easier. | |||
For example, the verb "китү" (to leave) changes differently than regular verbs: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
! Tatar !! Pronunciation !! English | |||
|- | |||
| киттем || kittem || I left | |||
|- | |||
| киттең || kitting || You (singular) left | |||
|- | |||
| китте || kitte || He/She/It left | |||
|- | |||
| киттек || kittik || We left | |||
|- | |||
| киттегез || kitted || You (plural/formal) left | |||
|- | |||
| киттеләр || kittelar || They left | |||
|} | |||
Some other irregular verbs to note include: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | {| class="wikitable" | ||

Understanding the Past Tense in Tatar[edit | edit source]
The past tense in Tatar is used to describe actions that happened in the past. This can include anything from daily activities to significant events in your life.
In Tatar, the past tense is generally formed by modifying the verb stem. Regular verbs follow predictable patterns, while irregular verbs may not, requiring memorization.
Regular Verbs Conjugation[edit | edit source]
Regular verbs in Tatar typically follow a systematic approach. Here’s a simple breakdown of how to conjugate regular verbs in the past tense:
1. For present tense verbs ending in -у (-u) or -ю (-yu), you usually replace these endings with -ды (-dy) or -де (-de) for the past tense.
2. The ending also changes based on the subject pronoun.
Here’s a table to illustrate this:
Tatar | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
бардым | bardym | I went |
бардың | bardyng | You (singular) went |
барды | bardy | He/She/It went |
бардык | bardyk | We went |
бардыгыз | bardygyz | You (plural/formal) went |

укыдыгыз | ukydygyz | You (plural/formal) read |
укыдылар | ukydylar | They read |
Irregular Verbs Conjugation[edit | edit source]
Irregular verbs do not follow the standard rules of conjugation. Here, learning them can be a bit tricky, but with practice, it will become easier.
For example, the verb "китү" (to leave) changes differently than regular verbs:

---|---|---|
киттем | kittem | I left |
киттең | kitting | You (singular) left |
китте | kitte | He/She/It left |
киттек | kittik | We left |
киттегез | kitted | You (plural/formal) left |
киттеләр | kittelar | They left |
Some other irregular verbs to note include:
Tatar | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
күрдем | kürdem | I saw |
күрдең | kürdeñ | You (singular) saw |
күрде | kürde | He/She/It saw |
күрдек | kürdek | We saw |
күрдегез | kürdegez | You (plural/formal) saw |
