Veriyorlar

Veriyorlar is a Turkish verb form meaning “they are giving” or, in context, “they give.” It is the present continuous tense (also called the present progressive) of the verb ver-mek, which means to give. The form combines the verb stem ver-, the present continuous marker -iyor, and the 3rd person plural subject suffix -lar, indicating that the subject is they.

Morphology and grammar distinctions are important. Veriyorlar uses the present continuous aspect to describe actions occurring now or around the present moment. It is formed by adding the suffixes to the verb stem: ver- + i yor + lar → veriyorlar. In Turkish, the subject pronoun onlar (they) is often implied by the verb ending, so veriyorlar can stand alone without an explicit subject. The simple present form verirler, in contrast, expresses habitual or general giving rather than a happening at the moment.

Usage notes and examples. Veriyorlar is common in everyday Turkish to describe ongoing giving actions. It can appear in statements about actions performed by a group. Examples include:

- Onlar bize hediyeler veriyorlar. (They are giving us gifts.)

- Hizmet veriyorlar. (They are serving/they provide service.)

- Öğrenciler ödevlerini veriyorlar. (The students are submitting/they are giving their assignments.)

Compared with verirler, which expresses a habitual or general action, veriyorlar emphasizes the present, ongoing nature of the giving. Veriyorlar is therefore a versatile form used to describe current activities of multiple subjects in Turkish.
