Hello Turkmen learners! 😀
In today's lesson, you will learn how to form the pluperfect in Turkmen.
This is formed by taking the gerund form –yp/ip and adding the simple past tense suffix –dy/di.
It is used when referring to something that happened previous to the time frame being talked about e.g. alypdym in:
- Men onuň ýanyna aýlandym. Men maşyn alypdym, şonuň üçin men ol ýere çalt baryp ýetdim.
I went to see him. I had bought a car, so I got there quite quickly.
The negative is formed by taking the negative past participle –man/män and adding the simple past tense suffix –dy/di e.g.
- Men entek maşyn almandym, şol sebäpli men giç galdym.
I hadn’t yet bought a car, so I was late.
