A discussion about a route or a price need not end with a simple yes or no. You will name whose view you share, limit your agreement and choose a suitable form of address.
The idea
Katılıyorum means “I agree”; ben is optional because the verb already identifies the speaker. Name the person or idea in the dative: sana, size, bu öneriye. Use tamamen for complete agreement and kısmen for partial agreement. Haklısın says “you are right” to one familiar person; haklısınız addresses someone politely or several people. Aynen is an informal “exactly” in conversation.
| Address | Sharing an opinion | Saying someone is right |
|---|---|---|
| sen | Sana katılıyorum. | Haklısın. |
| siz | Size katılıyorum. | Haklısınız. |
Examples
- Bu konuda sana katılıyorum.I agree with you on this point.
- Bu öneriye tamamen katılıyorum.I completely agree with this suggestion.
- Ben de size katılıyorum.I agree with you too.
- Bu konuda kısmen katılıyorum.I partly agree on this point.
- Haklısın, bu yol daha kısa.You are right, this route is shorter.
- Haklısınız, önce fiyatı konuşalım.You are right; let’s discuss the price first.
- Aynen, küçük masa yeterli.Exactly, the small table is enough.

Watch out
Do not copy the case from seni seviyorum: agreement is sana katılıyorum, not seni katılıyorum. Also, tamam can accept a plan without saying that you share the opinion behind it. Choose katılıyorum when that shared opinion is the point.
Try it yourself
Complete with the dative of sen: I agree with you.
Show answer or example answer
sana
sana: the listener is one familiar person. The dative of sen is the irregular form sana, so adding an ending mechanically would give the wrong form.
Complete öneri with the dative; write the whole word: I agree with this suggestion.
Show answer or example answer
öneriye
öneriye: write the whole word. The idea is the target of agreement; final i takes -ye, with y separating the two vowels.
Choose tamamen or kısmen: I agree with you, but not on every point.
Show answer or example answer
kısmen
kısmen: the second clause says “not on every point”, so tamamen would contradict it. This reply leaves a specific part open to disagreement.
Use haklı with the ending for siz: you are right; let’s discuss the price first.
Show answer or example answer
Haklısınız
Haklısınız: the cue siz calls for the polite or plural ending. The reply acknowledges the other person’s point about discussing the price first.
