Oturursun

Oturursun is a Turkish verb form meaning “you sit” in the present simple indicative. It is the second person singular form of the verb oturmak, which means to sit. In Turkish, the subject pronoun sen (you) is often implied by the personal suffix, so oturursun is commonly used without explicitly saying sen.

Morphology and grammar. The form is built from the verb stem otur-, the present tense element ur-, and the second person singular suffix -sun. Turkish generally marks person and tense through affixes, and this form expresses a simple present or habitual action, rather than the ongoing aspect. For ongoing actions, Turkish typically uses oturuyorsun (you are sitting).

Usage. Oturursun is used in informal direct address to describe where someone sits or what they habitually do. It can describe a state or routine rather than a momentary action. Because Turkish often omits subjects, oturursun can appear in sentences where the subject is understood from context.

Examples.

- Sen burada oturursun. — You sit here.

- Normalde akşamları oturursun. — You sit (usually) in the evenings.

Notes. Oturursun should not be mistaken for present continuous forms such as oturuyorsun, which expresses an action in progress. The form is specific to the second person singular; other persons have distinct endings (e.g., oturur, oturuyorlar). There is no separate noun form for oturursun; it is strictly a verb form.
