== Azerbaijani == === Alternative forms === -your (dialectal, Sonqor) -you (contraction, dialectal, Sonqor) -ov /ow/ (dialectal, Sonqor, second-person singular) -ou (dialectal, Sonqor, second-person plural) -iyo (dialectal, Hallavar/Lernajur) -iyür (dialectal, Bayat, only used in first-person singular forms) -iyö (contraction, dialectal, Bayat, only used in first-person singular forms) -eyr (dialectal, Airym) === Etymology === Inherited from Old Anatolian Turkish ـه‌یورر (-eyorur, -ayorur), ـه‌یور (-eyor, -ayor), from Old Anatolian Turkish یورمق (yorımaq), یورمك (yörimek), which were used as auxillary verbs. Cognate with Turkish -iyor, Gagauz -iy, -ii (both dialectal), and likely with Gagauz -er, -êr, Azerbaijani -ir, -ır, -ür, -ur (only in the sense of a continious action). Compare Turkmen ýör-, otyr-, ýat-yr- with relic suffix -ır, the special verbs for indication of a continious action of something (general continious actions in some parts of Turkmenistan). In Bayat dialect, the suffix is a relic (only used in first-person singular forms). === Suffix === -iyour (dialectal, Hallavar/Lernajur, Sonqor, Airym, Bayat) Suffix creating continious tense, denoting action happening at the time.
