Questions & Answers about Yardım faydalı.
What are the parts of speech of yardım and faydalı?
yardım is a noun meaning help. faydalı is an adjective meaning useful.
Why is there no verb like is in the Turkish sentence?
In Turkish, the copula “to be” (olmak) is normally omitted in simple present‐tense nominal sentences. The link between subject and predicate adjective is understood without an explicit word for is.
How do we know yardım is the subject when there’s no suffix?
In a basic noun–adjective sentence, the subject stays in its bare form (nominative) and the adjective functions as the predicate without extra endings. Word order (Subject → Predicate) signals the roles.
I thought adjectives in Turkish come before nouns. Why is faydalı after yardım?
When an adjective directly modifies a noun (attributive), it precedes the noun (e.g. faydalı yardım = useful help). But as a predicate adjective (“Help is useful”), faydalı comes after the noun.
How would I say “The help is very useful”?
Add an adverb of degree before faydalı:
Yardım çok faydalı.
How can I specify “Your help is useful”?
Attach the 2nd-person singular possessive suffix -ın to yardım (and you may optionally add senin for clarity):
Yardımın faydalı. or Senin yardımın faydalı.
How do I negate it to say “Help is not useful”?
Use the negative adjective form with değil after faydalı:
Yardım faydalı değil.
If I want to ask “Is the help useful?”, what changes?
Add the question particle -mı to faydalı (harmonized to - mı) and use a question intonation or mark:
Yardım faydalı mı?
Are there common synonyms for yardım and faydalı?
Yes. For yardım you might see destek (support). For faydalı, yararlı is a close synonym.
How do I pronounce yardım faydalı, and where is the stress?
Pronunciation (approximate):
yar-DUM fay-DA-luh
Each Turkish word tends to carry stress on its last syllable, so you’ll hear a stronger emphasis on dum in yardım and da in faydalı.
