Breakdown of Mucit yeni fikirler icat ediyor.
Questions & Answers about Mucit yeni fikirler icat ediyor.
Yes, icat is a noun meaning invention, but Turkish forms a verb by combining it with etmek (to do). The base verb is icat etmek (“to invent”), and in the sentence you see its present‐continuous form:
icat + ediyor → icat ediyor (“is inventing” or “invents” in context)
The verb etmek is irregular in the progressive. The stem vowel e shifts to i before the -yor suffix:
et + i + yor → ediyor
Turkish tolerates some stem‐vowel changes like this, even though it bends strict vowel‐harmony rules.
The normal order is Subject–Object–Verb (SOV): mucit (S) + yeni fikirler (O) + icat ediyor (V). You can front or delay elements for emphasis, e.g.:
Yeni fikirler mucit icat ediyor (emphasize the ideas)
or
İcat ediyor mucit yeni fikirler (emphasize the inventor)
but the verb almost always stays last.
