Questions & Answers about Toplantıda yeni proje ile ilgili kapsamlı bir sunum yapacaklar.
How does ile ilgili work here, and could I just use hakkında instead?
The postposition ile ilgili means "related to" or "concerning." It follows the noun it modifies, which in this case is proje (project). You could absolutely use hakkında here (yeni proje hakkında), but ile ilgili sounds slightly more formal and fits the professional context of a business meeting perfectly.
Do words always stay in their dictionary form before ile ilgili, like proje does here?
Nouns and demonstratives usually stay in their base (or plural) form before it, but personal and demonstrative pronouns require the genitive case. So while you say proje ile ilgili (or combine them as projeyle ilgili), if you wanted to say "related to me" or "related to that", you must say benimle ilgili and onunla ilgili.
Why is the word order kapsamlı bir sunum instead of bir kapsamlı sunum?
In Turkish, when an adjective modifies a noun that includes the indefinite article bir (a/an), the standard, natural-sounding order is Adjective + bir + Noun. Putting bir at the very beginning (bir kapsamlı sunum) is grammatically possible but shifts the emphasis to the number "one," sounding like you mean exactly one comprehensive presentation rather than just a comprehensive presentation.
I know yapacaklar means "they will do/make". Is this the normal way to say someone will "give" a presentation?
Yes, Turkish uses the helper verb yapmak (to do/make) with sunum (presentation). While in English you "give" a presentation, trying to use the Turkish verb vermek (to give) here would sound unnatural. The set phrase is always sunum yapmak.
