Ya sen?

Ya sen?

What does word 'ya' mean here?

 

[ancalimon]

In this context, it means "what about".

There are diffierent situations in which it means different things.

For example;

Ya görürse : What if he sees.

or

-Hava çok sıcak. (The weather is very hot)
-Ya, öyle. (Yeah, it is) or (If you say so, it is)

(while ya means "yeah", yo (colloquial for yok) means "no")

 

[Ali Smith]

When used before a noun, "ya" is used to indicate contrast. E.g.

Türküm. Ya siz?

Ankara'da oturuyorum. Ya sen?

 

[Rallino]

This is rather a textbook thing. In real life, we would simply ask "Sen?"
