Questions & Answers about Prototipler üzerinde yapılan sistematik testler sayesinde mekanizmaların stabil olduğu tespit edildi.
How do we translate Prototipler üzerinde yapılan sistematik testler sayesinde into English?
It means “Thanks to the systematic tests conducted on the prototypes.”
What is the role of üzerinde in prototipler üzerinde yapılan, and what case does it use?
üzerinde is a locative postposition meaning “on” or “over.” It carries the locative ending -de, so prototipler üzerinde literally means “on the prototypes.” The noun prototipler stays in the nominative before this postposition.
Why is yapılan used instead of a finite verb like yapıldı?
yapılan is a passive adjectival participle formed with -lAn. It turns the verb yapmak (“to do/conduct”) into “that is done/conducted,” which then modifies testler (“tests”). If you used yapıldı, you’d have a separate clause (“was conducted”) instead of a modifier.
What does sayesinde mean, and how does it work grammatically?
sayesinde means “thanks to” or “owing to” and introduces the cause or reason. You attach it directly to the noun phrase expressing the source of the cause—here sistematik testler—yielding “thanks to the systematic tests.”
Why is mekanizmaların in the genitive case instead of the nominative?
When you turn a clause into a noun clause with -DIK/duğu (as in mekanizmaların stabil olduğu, “that the mechanisms are stable”), the subject of that clause takes the genitive ending -ın/–in/–un/–ün. That’s why mekanizmalar becomes mekanizmaların.
What is the function of olduğu in mekanizmaların stabil olduğu tespit edildi?
olduğu is the past participle of olmak (“to be”) used here to nominalize the adjective stabil. The phrase mekanizmaların stabil olduğu means “the fact that the mechanisms are stable.” Without olduğu, you couldn’t express it as a single noun clause.
What kind of voice is tespit edildi, and how would you add an agent if you wanted to say who made the determination?
tespit edildi is the passive past tense of tespit etmek (“to determine”), so it means “it was determined.” To mention the agent, you add tarafından:
• Mühendisler tarafından tespit edildi – “it was determined by the engineers.”
