전문 강사Turkish present progressive tense versus present tense
I'm a beginner Turkish learner so I'm sorry for writing in English instead of Turkish.
I just learned that -iyor- is the present progressive stem.
For example, if I want to say:
to like something - beğenmek
I am liking - Ben beğeniyorum
You are liking (informal) - Sen beğeniyorsun
He/She/It is liking - O beğeniyor
We are liking - Biz beğeniyoruz
You are liking (plural/formal) - Siz beğeniyorsunuz
They are liking - Onlar beğeniyorlar
Is this correct?
What about the present? If I understood correctly, the stem is -mekte. Can someone please fill this in for me?
I like something - ?
I like - Ben
You like (informal) - Sen ?
He/She/It likes - O ?
We like - Biz ?
You like (plural/formal) - Siz ?
They like - Onlar ?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you, Abdullah. Does this also mean that there is another way to say 'like'? How do you conjugate it?

Hello Abby, We sometimes use present simple tense just like continuous.
For example; I like reading okumayı severim/okumayı seviyorum
I like swimming yüzmeyi severim/yüzmeyi seviyorum
As you can see, I translated them both to present simple tense and continuous. There is no difference between them as meaning but you can not always translate continuous to present simple tense.'' know, hate, love, study''...these verbs can be translated into the same way.
Başarılar dilerim :)
