Questions & Answers about Proje bitimini müteakip rapor eksiksiz hazırlandı.
What does müteakip mean, and how formal is it?
Müteakip means “following, subsequent to”. In this sentence it corresponds to “following / after” in English.
- It is formal and bureaucratic Turkish, often seen in:
- official letters
- reports
- legal/administrative language
In everyday spoken Turkish, you would usually avoid müteakip and say instead:
- sonra – after
- ardından – afterwards
- bittikten sonra – after (it) finished
So:
- Proje bitimini müteakip rapor eksiksiz hazırlandı.
≈ Proje bittikten sonra rapor eksiksiz hazırlandı. (more neutral/colloquial)
Is müteakip a preposition or something else? Why does it come after bitimini?
