Questions & Answers about Radyo frekans ayarı doğru.

Why is there no suffix on frekans in radyo frekans ayarı?

In Turkish, when one noun modifies another directly (a noun-noun compound), the first noun stays in its base form without possessive or case endings. Here frekans (a loanword) simply describes the type of setting: “radio frequency adjustment.”

What does the -ı on ayarı mean?

The base noun is ayar (setting). The suffix -ı is the 3rd person singular possessive, so ayarı means “its setting.” Combined with radyo frekans, it literally reads “the setting of the radio frequency.”

Why is doğru not marked with any tense or person suffix?

Doğru is an adjective meaning “correct.” In Turkish, you can use adjectives as predicates without adding the copular -dır/-dir (especially in spoken or informal contexts). So … ayarı doğru simply means “…the setting is correct.”

Could I say radyo frekansı ayarı doğru instead? What’s the difference?

Yes, you can. Radyo frekansı uses the genitive-possessive chain (“of the radio frequency”), making the structure a little more explicit: “the setting of the radio’s frequency is correct.” But radyo frekans ayarı (no genitive) is equally natural and more concise for “radio frequency adjustment.”

Why is doğru placed after ayarı instead of before it?
