Questions & Answers about Siz müsaitseniz, yarın sabah görüşelim.
What does the ending in müsaitseniz mean? Is it the same as -siniz?
- -siniz is the 2nd person plural/polite “you are” ending for nominal/adjectival predicates: müsaitsiniz = “you are available.”
- -seniz contains the conditional -se/-sa: müsaitseniz = “if you are available.”
- Minimal pair: Siz müsaitsiniz (you are available) vs. Siz müsaitseniz (if you are available).
- You may also see the non-contracted form müsait iseniz; in everyday Turkish it’s almost always contracted to müsaitseniz.
Why use siz instead of sen here?
Turkish has an informal/formal (singular/plural) distinction:
- sen = you (singular, informal).
- siz = you (plural or polite singular). This sentence uses siz to be polite. With a friend, you could say: Müsaitsen, yarın sabah görüşelim.
Can I drop the pronoun siz?
Yes. Person/number is already in the suffix. These are all fine:
- Müsaitseniz, yarın sabah görüşelim.
- Yarın sabah görüşelim, müsaitseniz. Use siz only for emphasis or clarity.
