Etymology

From Ottoman Turkish ایدی (idi, “was”), from Proto-Turkic *er-ti (“was”), third person past participle of Proto-Turkic *er- (“to be”). Equivalent to i- (“to be”) +‎ -di (“past tense suffix”). Cognate with Old Turkic 𐰼𐱅𐰃 (erti, “was”), Karakhanid [script needed] (erdi, “was”), Kazakh еді (edı, “was”), Uzbek edi (“was”).

Verb

idi

1. third-person singular indicative simple past of imek

   Yakışıklı bir çocuk idi. ― He was a handsome guy.

   Génçti. ― He was young.

   (kı́zdı. ― She was a girl) as opposed to (kızdı́. ― He/she got angry.) (see usage notes for stress marking)

   (bítti. ― It was a louse) as opposed to (bittı́. ― It ended.) (see usage notes for stress marking)

Usage notes

• Mostly embedded into words taking the shape in alternative forms. When it is in the form of -di/-ti, -dı/-tı, -du/-tu, and -dü/-tü which are also past tense suffixes, a differentiation in stress is noted where the past tense suffixes carry the stress but the alternative forms of idi do not, mainly because they are not originally suffixes. Past tense suffixes always follow a verb.

Note: This amalgamation of terms comes from a number of different academic papers focused on the unique varieties and languages spoken in the Yoruboid dialectal continuum which extends from eastern Togo to southern Nigeria. The terms for spoken varieties, now deemed dialects of Yorùbá in Nigeria (i.e. Southeast Yorùbá, Northwest Yorùbá, Central Yorùbá, and Northeast Yorùbá), have converged with those of Standard Yorùbá leading to the creation of what can be labeled Common Yorùbá (Funṣọ Akere, 1977). It can be assumed that the Standard Yorùbá term can also be used in most Nigerian varieties alongside native terms, especially amongst younger speakers. This does not apply to the other Nigerian Yoruboid languages of Ìṣẹkírì and Olùkùmi, nor the Èdè Languages of Benin and Togo.
