Describe a trembling person or vibrating object without changing the basic verb.
The idea
The subject itself trembles or vibrates. Stem titre- becomes present titriyor, while past titredi and future titreyecek retain e.
| Person | Present continuous | Past | Future |
|---|---|---|---|
| ben | titriyorum | titredim | titreyeceğim |
| sen | titriyorsun | titredin | titreyeceksin |
| o | titriyor | titredi | titreyecek |
| biz | titriyoruz | titredik | titreyeceğiz |
| siz | titriyorsunuz | titrediniz | titreyeceksiniz |
| onlar | titriyorlar | titrediler | titreyecekler |
