Questions & Answers about Belgeler sisteme entegre edilmek yerine e-posta ile gönderildi.
Why is entegre edilmek used instead of entegre etmek?
Entegre etmek is the active infinitive “to integrate (something).” Entegre edilmek is the passive infinitive “to be integrated,” which we need here because Belgeler (the documents) are the ones being integrated, not doing the integrating.
What does entegre edilmek yerine mean?
The pattern ... etmek yerine means “instead of doing ….” So entegre edilmek yerine literally means “instead of being integrated.” In context, it means the documents weren’t integrated into the system but were sent by e-mail.
Why is sisteme in the dative case?
Turkish marks the target of an action with the dative suffix -e/-a. Here sistem + -e = sisteme, meaning “to the system,” indicating where the (non-)integration would have happened.
Why is e-posta ile used to mean “by e-mail”? Could we say e-postayla?
Yes. İle is a postposition meaning “with/by,” so e-posta ile = “by e-mail.” You can also attach the suffix -yla/-yle directly: e-postayla is equally correct and means the same thing.
What is the tense and voice of gönderildi?
