Actually just use "Gerek" Like; I have to go : Gitmem gerekiyor. I don't have to go : gitmem gerekmiyor. I will have to go : Gitmem gerekecek. I had to go : Gitmem gerekiyordu. I may have to go : Gitmem gerekebilir. You have to use also different suffixes for each subject like: You have to go: Gitmen gerekiyor. He has to go : gitmesi gerekiyor. He has to sleep: uyuması gerekiyor. We have to sleep: uyumamız gerekiyor. They have to sleep: uyumaları gerekiyor. Little bit complex but after using these phrases you're getting used to these. Also i think "zorundayım" little bit equals to "must"

[@carolinebenforado]

You are such an outstanding teacher! I love the way you teach slowly, then repeat then check for understanding. I also love your sense of humor.

Best teacher ever

[@Onaterdem]

Note: "Zorunda kalacağım" is not just because it's an exception, but because "zorunda" is a noun. Even in English you can say "I am noun" and "I was noun" but you cannot say "I will noun", you need "I will BE noun", which translates into "zorunda olacağım". "Zorunda KALACAĞIM" is very similar to "zorunda olacağım", but more fitting because we use it as a solidified phrase. Its literal translation is something like "I will remain[/become] obliged to"

[@nicolasduweit3611]

Does "Yapmak zorundayim" and "Yapmaliyim" mean the same and when do i use each of this forms?

[@zcbtamu]

Same question! I wonder if zorunda is used when it's 'have to' or the 'mali/meli' suffix is used when it's must/should or if they're just used interchangeably.

[@AF07546]

Zorunda is something that you are obliged to do it but the others are something that you have to do or you must do for example if you say (gitmek zorundayım) it means that you are obliged to go but if you say (gitmem lazım/gerekiyor) means that you have to go not obliged to go

[@AF07546]

I am not sure but I think meli/mali suffixes are nearer to zorunda instead of lazım

[@saumyatiwari8876]

Merhaba Can ! 😊💙💚 At 4:17 , lf l either say - " Seninle bir şey söylemek zorundayım " , would it be wrong ? Also one more thing ; for what do we use " lazım " like : " Gitmame lazım " ( which l also translate as , " l have to go " ) l think both can be used , now please u tell....☺ Take thanks from lndia 🇮🇳🇮🇳❤

[@AF07546]

Merhaba We can’t say seninle bir şey söylemek zorundayım because it means i have to tell something with you which is wrong we have to say ( sana bir şey söylemek zorundayım ) which means I have to tell you something

[@AF07546]

And we also use two other expressions which are (gerekiyor/ lazım) and they have almost the same meaning as zorunda for example instead of saying ( gitmek zorundayım ) you can say (gitmem gerekiyor) or (gitmem lazım ) but I think gerekiyor is more common than lazım and Zorunda is something that you are obliged to do it but the others are something that you have to do or you must do for example if you say (gitmek zorundayım) it means that you are obliged to go but if you say (gitmem lazım/gerekiyor) means that you have to go not obliged to go

[@mattiasn310]

beni - me... He sees me It lifts me It is trying to eat me Bana - to me He gives it to me It brings it to me He helps me (in Turkish it is "help to me"... bana yardım edebilir misin? meaning can you help me?) Does that make sense?

[@amersassila]

@@mattiasn310 yes it makes sense now for the first part of my question. The very example you used “bana yardım edebilir miyim?” is actually what threw me into confusion. But I get it now. Thank you!

[@simratmann4323]

@@mattiasn310 Thanks for clearing . I also had the same confusion

[@AF07546]

@amersassila Zorunda is something which that you HAVE TO DO for example if you want to say I have to speak ( konuşmak zorundayım) But if you want to say I need to speak to someone (for example a friend ) you will say (konuşmaya ihtiyacım var ) and for something that you think is not necessary and you don’t need it you will say ( ihtiyacım yok)

[@AF07546]

@amersassila Gereksiz/ Gerekli means not important/ important for example when you talk about someone who is not important to you, you will say (gereksiz biri) which means someone not important

[@jeremyemilio9378]

how does this construct differ from using "lazim // gerek" ?

[@erensametkaratas6593]

They all have the same meaning but they are used in different ways. Here are some examples using "zorunda/zorunda olmak", "lazım" and "gerek": (Pronouns are omitted) I have to go: Gitmek zorundayım Gitmem lazım Gitmem gerek/gerekiyor You have to go: Gitmek zorundasın Gitmen lazım Gitmen gerek/gerekiyor He/She/It has to go: Gitmek zorunda Gitmesi lazım Gitmesi gerek/gerekiyor We have to go: Gitmek zorundayız Gitmemiz lazım Gitmemiz gerek/gerekiyor You(plural) have to go: Gitmek zorundasınız Gitmeniz lazım Gitmeniz gerek/gerekiyor They have to go: Gitmek zorundalar Gitmeleri lazım Gitmeleri gerek/gerekiyor

[@anormobilegaming2237]

We use gerek lazim as "need to" in english

[@kawaiidayo123]

Is “zorundayım” and “lazım” the same thing? I can use both and it would have the same meaning?

[@AF07546]

They are almost the same but if you want to lnow it deeply Zorunda is something that you are obliged to do it but the others are something that you have to do or you must do for example if you say (gitmek zorundayım) it means that you are obliged to go but if you say (gitmem lazım/gerekiyor) means that you have to go not obliged to go
