Turkish

A verb is in its infinitive form in English if it starts with to, for example to read and to write.
 In Turkish, the infinitive form of all verbs ends in mEk.
 The part that comes before mEk is called the stem of the verb.
 

 
 Whether the verb ends in mek or mak is determined by the last vowel in the stem, in exactly the same way as the form of the plural suffix is determined by the last vowel which comes before it, according to minor vowel harmony.

 Again, the vowels at the left are called front vowels, because they are produced in the front of the mouth,
 and the vowels at the right are called back vowels, because they are produced in the back of the mouth.
