Questions & Answers about Rekolte çok iyi.

What does rekolte mean in English?

Rekolte is a loanword from French (récolte) that means harvest yield or crop production—the total amount of produce gathered from a field, vineyard, orchard, etc.

Why is there no article (like “the” or “a”) before rekolte?

Turkish doesn’t use separate articles. A noun without suffixes can be definite or indefinite based on context. Here, Rekolte çok iyi means “The yield is very good,” but no extra word for “the” is needed.

Why isn’t there a verb like “is” in Rekolte çok iyi?

In Turkish, the present-tense copula “to be” is zero; it’s implied rather than written. You could make it explicit (more formal) by adding -dir: Rekolte çok iyidir, but in everyday speech you simply say Rekolte çok iyi.

Why is çok placed before iyi?

Degree words or adverbs (like çok, meaning “very/much”) precede the adjective they modify. So çok iyi is the correct order for “very good.”

Could I say iyi çok instead of çok iyi?

No. Turkish word order for adverb + adjective is fixed: the adverb (çok) must come before the adjective (iyi). İyi çok would sound ungrammatical.
