Okay, let's continue with our dialogue.
Let's first look at the sentence pattern.
Do you see?
Our sentence pattern starts with our verb, okay?
Our verb but without the letter K at the end, okay?
The letter K.
Do you see our verb here?
Okumak, Yüzmek
This is the dictionary form and for this pattern,
you have to take only the K out of the dictionary form, okay?
So you take the K out, you delete the K, okay?
And then you add either (y) I/i/u/ü
according to vowel harmony rules of Turkish language, okay?
And after this, you add severim okay?
Our verb without K, the suffixes and severim
so this means
I like [to verb], okay?
This is I like and this phrase is to verb.
Okay, now let's see our dialogue.
