Questions & Answers about Faizden kazanacağını bakiyende görebilir misin?
How does kazanacağını mean 'what you will earn'?
It uses the future relative participle -(y)AcAk. The root kazan (earn) takes -acak, becoming kazanacak. We add the possessive -ın (your) to show who is earning, but we drop the noun it describes. This makes it act as a noun meaning 'the thing you will earn'. Finally, it takes the accusative case -ı because it is the direct object of the verb. Notice how k softens to ğ!
Why is the word 'interest' in the ablative case (faizden)?
Just like in English, you earn money 'from' a source. The ablative case -den attaches to faiz (interest) to show where the earnings are coming from.
What are the suffixes on bakiyende?
The root is bakiye (balance). First, it takes the second-person singular possessive -n (your), making it bakiyen. Then, the locative case -de (in/at/on) is added, resulting in bakiyende (in your balance).
Could kazanacağını also mean 'what he/she will earn'?
Yes, it could! The forms for 'your' (kazanacağın + accusative -ı) and 'his/her' (kazanacağı + buffer -n- + accusative -ı) look identical: kazanacağını. We know it means 'what you will earn' here because the main verb görebilir misin (can you see) is directed at 'you'.
