Questions & Answers about İkinci aşamada, bu eski arabayı cilalamış olacaklar.
How do cilalamış and olacaklar work together to mean 'will have polished'?
This is the Future Perfect structure from the current lesson. You take the main verb and add the -mIş suffix to show a completed action (cilalamış), then follow it with the helper verb olmak in the future tense (olacak). Literally, it translates to 'they will be in a state of having polished'.
Why is the plural 'they' suffix -lar on olacak instead of cilalamış?
In compound verbs like the Future Perfect, personal endings (like -lar for 'they' or -m for 'I') always attach to the final helper verb, never the main verb. So it must be cilalamış olacaklar, rather than cilalamışlar olacak.
Why does araba take the -yı ending here?
The -yı is the specific accusative case marker. Because the sentence refers to a specific direct object ('this old car' or bu eski arabayı), it needs this marker to show it is directly receiving the action of the verb. The y acts as a buffer letter between the two vowels.
What is the root structure of the verb cilalamış?
The root is the verb cilalamak (to polish). It is formed from the noun cila (polish, wax, or gloss) plus the verb-making suffix -la, which turns the noun into an action meaning 'to apply polish to'.
