Special Case - istemek - to want
The verb istemek - to want - is a special case as it causes no modification of the verb it governs:
yazmak istiyorum - I want to write
içmek isterler - they want to drink
kalmak istemedin - you didn't want to stay
çalışmak istemeyecekler - they will not want to work
Note that this also applies in English - we also cannot say - I want writing - or - they want drinking. |
