Template:U:tr:first-person singular

  • When this word is pronounced, the stress is on the last syllable: {{{1}}}{{{2}}}{{{3}}}. (The pronunciation with stress on the penultimate syllable, {{{1}}}{{{2}}}{{{3}}}, means "I am [a(n)/the] {{{4}}}.")

This template can be used to document special Turkish noun forms or verb forms having at least two syllables that can be differentiated by the right stress only. These words have different meanings depending on whether the stress falls on the penultimate syllable or the last syllable. Examples for noun forms are

Word Possessive form Predicative form
ev evim evim
güzelim güzelim zelim
peynirli kekim peynirli kekim peynirli kekim
plak plağım plağım

An example for a verb form is gelirim (I would come some time in the future). The possessive form is pronounced gelirim.
