Review Summary

  • Root + (ды/ді OR ты/ті)
  • Past Base + Personal Ending

よくある間違い

Forgetting the personal ending '-м' for 'I'. In Kazakh, the verb must always agree with the subject.

Wrong: Мен барды.
正解: Мен бардым.

Placing the negation but forgetting the personal ending. Negation comes before the tense, which comes before the person.

Wrong: Мен бармады.
正解: Мен бармадым.

Using -ды instead of -ті for soft words. 'Кету' is soft, so it must take the soft suffix -ті.

Wrong: Ол кетті.
正解: Ол кетті.
