Review Summary
- Verb stem + (-san/-son/-sön/-sün)
よくある間違い
You used the wrong vowel harmony. 'Och' has a back vowel, so it must use 'a/o' based suffixes.
You forgot to add the suffix to indicate past tense. Without it, the verb remains in the infinitive or present form.
You mixed up vowel harmony rules. 'Üz' uses front vowels, which require 'ö/ü' suffixes, but 'ü' is neutral-leaning; always verify the stem.
