gitmiyorsunuz

Gitmiyorsunuz is a Turkish verb form meaning “you are not going” or “you do not go.” It is the present continuous tense in the negative for the second-person plural subject (siz). The form is derived from the verb gitmek (to go). The affirmative present continuous for siz is gidiyorsunuz, and the negative present continuous is gitmiyorsunuz. The negative is formed by inserting the negation element m into the present continuous construction, and the stem may show minor assimilation in everyday speech, with gid- appearing in some analyses of the underlying form.

In use, gitmiyorsunuz is employed to indicate that the addressed group is not going somewhere at the moment, or to contrast their action with others who are going. It can be literal, as when people are supposed to leave a place but are staying, or figurative, when decisions or plans are not being pursued. The form is common in spoken Turkish and informal writing; in formal contexts a speaker might opt for a more precise or context-rich construction.

Examples:

- Toplantı sürüyor; siz gitmiyorsunuz. (The meeting is continuing; you are not going.)

- Arkadaşlar dışarı çıktı, siz gitmiyorsunuz. (Friends went outside; you are not going.)

Notes:

Gitmiyorsunuz is one of the typical negative present-continuous forms in Turkish and illustrates how negation interacts with the progressive aspect in the second-person plural. Related forms include gidiyorsunuz (you are going) and gitmeyi reddetmek gibi related constructions, which show how Turkish verbs encode aspect, tense, and person through relatively regular suffixal patterns.
