thank you
Use Abdussamad's script to convert it to a format Electrum understands.
Code:
python3 electrum-convert-privkey.py <yourprivatekey> p2wpkh-p2sh | electrum -w wallet_file_path restore
hello thank you for your answer i said electrum because i m familiar with thats all is there any other lightwallet that i can import my private key to without facing this problem ? all what i want is to move my btc without sync bitcoin core because in my country we have problem with internet speed so its imposible to me to sync bitcoin core
I found a site where you can just sweep your wallet and send it to your new bitcoin address.

Check this site https://segwitaddress.org/

I just found this when reading about WIF keys and WIF compressed that I thought this is the reason for the different address given from electrum.
You can try to use the sweep feature on segwitaddress.org

Take note I don't know if it's safe but someone posted this site already and test, check here below.

when i go to electrum and i import the private that i got from bitcoin core wallet they add an address different than the adress where i sent my money
My guess is this has to do with SegWit addresses. What does it start with? There are 3 options:
-1....
-3....
-bc1....
