Unuttun

Unuttun is a Turkish verb form that means you forgot. It is the second-person singular past tense of the verb unutmak, which means to forget. In Turkish, forms are created by attaching a past-tense ending to the verb stem and adding the personal ending for the subject; since Turkish often omits the subject pronoun, unuttun can stand alone to mean “you forgot.”

Grammatical notes: The form shows both the past tense and the second-person singular subject. Turkish verbs for past tense have endings that vary by person, and when the stem ends in a consonant such as t, the conjugation still yields a natural form like unuttun. Other persons have corresponding forms such as unuttum (I forgot), unuttu (he/she forgot), unuttuk (we forgot), unuttunuz (you forgot), and unuttular (they forgot).

Usage: Unuttun is used in informal spoken Turkish when addressing someone you know. It can function as a straightforward statement or as part of a question or exclamation. For example, Dün notları unuttun means “You forgot the notes yesterday.” Unuttun mu? translates to “Did you forget?” in a conversational setting.

Related terms: The infinitive form is unutmak (to forget). Other person forms derive from the same stem, such as unuttum, unuttu, unuttuk, unuttunuz, and unuttular, reflecting Turkish verb conjugation patterns and vowel harmony.
