====Verbal nouns====
====Verbal nouns====
The '''infinitive, '''formed with ''-mek'' as noted earlier, does not take a suffix of possession, or the genitive case-ending. It does take all other case-endings. In particular, the progressive characteristic given earlier is the infinitive ending with the locative ending:
:''Konuşmaktayız'' – "We are in (the act of) speaking."
:''Savaşmaktayız'' – "We are in warmaking", that is, "We are at war."


The '''verbal noun''' in ''-me'' is called a ''gerund'' above, since it corresponds roughly to the [[English gerund]].
The '''verbal noun''' is created by the addition of the suffix ''-zĭk'' and the '''root''' of the verb.
:''bekle'' "wait" → ''bekleme'' "waiting": ''bekleme odası'' "waiting room"
 
The verbal noun can take a suffix of possession and any case-ending:
 
{{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=2
| Beklemeniz lâzım.
| your-waiting necessary
| "You have to wait."}}
 
{{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=2|glossing=link
| Sesini duymayı seviyorum.
| your-voice-ACC hearing-ACC I-love
| "I like to hear your voice."}}
 
The dative form of a Turkish gerund can correspond precisely to an English infinitive with ''to'':
{{interlinear|lang=tr|indent=2
| Ülkemizde nano teknolojik ürünler üretilmeye başlandı.
| In-our-country nano technological products to-be-produced began
| "Nano-technological products began to be produced in our country."<ref>''Cumhuriyet Bilim-Teknik'' 13 August 2005, p. 1</ref>}}
 
The suffix ''-iş'' can also be used to create verbal nouns:
:{| class=wikitable
:{| class=wikitable
