Questions & Answers about Evet, rapor hazır.
In Turkish, the verb to be is often not expressed in simple present-tense sentences like this.
So:
- rapor hazır = the report is ready
This is called a nominal sentence. In the present tense, Turkish usually leaves out is / am / are.
Compare:
- Rapor hazır. = The report is ready.
- Ben hazırım. = I am ready.
Notice that with ben, the ending -ım shows am, but in a simple third-person sentence like rapor hazır, there is usually no separate word for is.
Evet means yes.
Here it works like a short response or confirmation before the main statement:
- Evet, rapor hazır. = Yes, the report is ready.
It often sounds natural when answering a question such as:
- Rapor hazır mı? = Is the report ready?
- Evet, rapor hazır. = Yes, the report is ready.
So evet is not grammatically connected to rapor hazır in a special way; it is simply a discourse word meaning yes.
