Questions & Answers about Kapanış oturumuna katılacak misafirleri ajandaya eklemek lazım.
How does katılacak mean "who will attend" in this sentence?
This is the future subject relative participle being taught in this lesson. By adding -acak to the verb stem katıl-, it turns the verb into an adjective describing the noun that follows it. So katılacak misafirler literally translates to "the will-attend guests". Because the guests are the ones doing the action (the subject), we just use the plain -acak suffix without any possessive endings.
Why is the word for session written as oturumuna and not just oturuma?
"Closing session" is a noun compound in Turkish: kapanış oturumu, where oturum (session) takes the 3rd person possessive suffix -u to link the words. The verb katılmak (to attend) always requires the dative case, so we must add -a to show what is being attended. The -n- is a buffer letter required between a possessive suffix and a case ending, giving us oturumuna.
Why does misafirleri have the accusative -i ending if the sentence ends with lazım?
Even though the sentence expresses a general need using lazım (necessary), the word misafirler is the direct object of the infinitive verb eklemek (to add). Because we are talking about specific, defined guests (the ones attending the session), eklemek requires its object to take the definite accusative case, making it misafirleri.
Why does ajanda take the -ya ending?
The verb eklemek (to add) requires the dative case for the place or thing you are adding something to. Here, we are adding the guests "to" the agenda, so ajanda gets the buffer letter -y- and the dative case ending -a.
