Şimdiki Zaman (Olumlu)

Şimdiki Zaman (Present continuous tense)

Turkish continuous tenses are formed by adding suffix to the end of the verb. Suffixes for the Şimdiki Zaman are : yor, ıyor, iyor, uyor, üyor. There are also four different suffixes and also the same you have to choose the right one according to the last vowel in the verbs. 

a ı - ıyor

e i - iyor

o u - uyor

ö ü - üyor

Let's drive into an example, "Gelmek" which means "to come" in English. So, it will be 

"Geliyorum" which means "I am coming". Gel is a fiil kökü(verb root), iyor is Şimdiki zaman and um is kişi eki which means suffix for person that's why it means I am coming.

Ben geliyorum. I am coming.

Sen gidiyorsun. You are going.(Gitmek - to go)

O yapıyor. He is doing. (Yapmak - to do)

Biz yazıyoruz. We are writing. (Yazmak - to write)

Siz dinliyorsunuz. You are listening. (Dinlemek - to listen)

Onlar konuşuyor(lar). They are talking. (Konuşmak - to talk)

NOTE : Do not forget to chage ''t'' to ''d'' like I mentioned aboved ''gidiyorsun'' and when the verbs are ended with vowels you have to remove the vowels and add şimdiki zaman suffixes. As an example : Dinlemek - this verb is ended with ''e'' which is a vowel. Therefore, remove that vowel ''e'' and add şimdiki zaman suffixes ''iyor'' according to the remaining vowel which is ''i''.
