Questions & Answers about Daha çok egzersiz yapsak sağlık için faydalı olur.
Why is it yapsak instead of yaparsak?
The verb yapsak uses the hypothetical conditional (verb root yap- + -sa- + -k). It describes an imaginary or hypothetical situation ("if we did"). If you used yaparsak, it would describe a real possibility ("if we do").
How does olur translate to "would be"? I thought the aorist tense was for general facts.
The aorist does describe habits or general truths, but it has a special job in conditional sentences. When the if-clause uses the hypothetical -sa suffix, the main clause uses the aorist tense to express the "would" part of the sentence. Together, yapsak ... olur means "If we did ... it would be."
Could I say sağlığımız için instead of just sağlık için here?
Absolutely! The phrase sağlık için simply means "for health" in general. If you specifically wanted to say "for our health", you would add the possessive suffix and say sağlığımız için. Both are completely natural here.
Does daha çok mean "more often" or "a greater amount" in this context?
It can mean both! The phrase daha çok egzersiz yapmak can be understood as exercising more frequently, or doing a larger volume of exercise. It perfectly captures the English idea of "doing more exercise".
