Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun.

Yes, in everyday Turkish keşif often means discovery. But in technical, construction, or procurement contexts, keşif can also mean something like an estimate, survey, or cost assessment.

So in keşif bedeli, it is not about discovering something. It refers to the estimated cost/value determined in a technical or project context.

Here keşif bedeli is a noun compound in Turkish.

• keşif = estimate / survey
• bedel = price / cost / amount
• bedeli = the cost/value of the estimate

The -i here is not the accusative ending. It is part of the noun-compound structure, specifically the 3rd person possessive marker on the second noun.

This is a very common Turkish pattern:

• kitap kapağı = book cover
• otobüs durağı = bus stop
• keşif bedeli = estimated cost / cost estimate

Because uygun normally takes the dative case in Turkish.

So:

• şartname = specification
• şartnameye = to / according to / in relation to the specification

The ending is -ye because:

1. the word ends in a vowel: şartname
2. Turkish adds a buffer letter y
3. the dative ending here is -e

So:

• şartname + ye → şartnameye

In Turkish, uygun usually means suitable, appropriate, or in compliance, and it typically connects to the thing it matches with the dative case.

So:

• X, Y’ye uygun = X is suitable for / compliant with Y

Examples:

• Bu renk sana uygun. = This color suits you.
• Plan yönetmeliğe uygun. = The plan is compliant with the regulation.
• Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun. = The estimated cost is compliant with the technical specification.

This is something English speakers often just need to memorize: uygun + dative.

Because Turkish often leaves out the verb to be in the present tense, especially in third person sentences.

So:

• Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun. literally looks like
• Estimated cost technical specification-DAT suitable.

But the natural English meaning is:

• The estimated cost is in accordance with the technical specification.

You can also say uygundur, with the copular ending -dur, which sounds a bit more formal or definite:

• Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygundur.

Both are correct.

In this sentence, uygun means something like:

• suitable
• appropriate
• compatible
• in accordance with
• compliant with

In a technical or official context, the best English sense is often compliant with or in accordance with.

So here uygun is not just a vague okay or fine. It means the estimated cost matches the requirements of the technical specification.

It is grammatically singular in Turkish:

• teknik şartname = technical specification / technical specifications document

In Turkish, a singular noun is often used where English may prefer a plural expression like specifications, especially when referring to a document or official set of requirements.

So teknik şartname can refer to the whole technical-specification document as one unit.

No, Turkish word order is somewhat flexible, but this order is very natural:

• Keşif bedeli = subject/topic
• teknik şartnameye = complement
• uygun = predicate

So the sentence is structured in a normal way for Turkish.

You may see other orders for emphasis, but Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun is the straightforward, neutral version.

For the negative, use değil:

• Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun değil.
• The estimated cost is not in accordance with the technical specification.

For a yes/no question, use mi/mu:

• Keşif bedeli teknik şartnameye uygun mu?
• Is the estimated cost in accordance with the technical specification?

This is the normal way to negate or question a sentence like this in Turkish.
