öneriyorum

öneriyorum is the first-person singular present continuous form of the Turkish verb önermek, meaning to recommend or to suggest. It expresses that the speaker is currently offering a recommendation, or that a recommendation is being made in a given context. The form is built from the verb stem öner- plus the present continuous suffix -ıyorum. In Turkish, the subject pronoun ben is often omitted because the verb ending indicates the subject.

Usage of öneriyorum is typically with a direct object in the accusative to indicate what is being recommended, and with an infinitive clause to indicate the recommended action. Common constructions include: Bu kitabı öneriyorum (I recommend this book) and Sana bu filmi izlemeyi öneriyorum (I recommend that you watch this movie). The phrase can also function as a brief standalone suggestion in informal speech, but more often speakers use öneririm for a general or less immediate recommendation.

Nuance: öneriyorum tends to convey a direct and explicit recommendation or suggestion, while öneririm expresses a more general, habitual, or tentative suggestion. Both forms are common in everyday Turkish and appear in spoken and written language.

Examples:

- Bu kitabı okumanızı öneriyorum. (I recommend that you read this book.)

- Bu restorantı denemenizi öneriyorum. (I recommend attempting this restaurant.)

- Sınav için bu stratejileri kullanmanızı öneriyorum. (I recommend that you use these strategies for the exam.)
