Questions & Answers about Genelge yürürlüğe girdiğinden dolayı, gece vardiyası uygulanmayacak.
How does girdiğinden dolayı translate to 'because it went into'?
This uses the verb girmek (to enter) with the object participle -dik, making it a noun-like clause. It becomes girdiği (its entering). Then we add the ablative case -nden (from) to connect with the postposition dolayı (because of). Literally, it translates to 'because of its entering'.
The current lesson focuses on -dan itibaren (from ... onwards). How is -dan dolayı related?
Both itibaren (starting from) and dolayı (because of) are postpositions that require the word before them to be in the ablative case (-dan/-den). While -dan itibaren tells you when an ongoing action starts, -dan dolayı gives the reason why something happens.
What does yürürlüğe mean, and why is there an -e at the end?
The root word is yürürlük (validity, effect). The verb girmek (to enter) requires a destination marked by the dative case (-e/-a). When we add -e to mean 'into effect,' the final k in yürürlük softens to ğ. Together, yürürlüğe girmek is a common phrase meaning 'to go into effect.'
Why is it gece vardiyası instead of just gece vardiya?
This is a classic Turkish noun compound. When combining two nouns to make a new concept, like gece (night) and vardiya (shift), the second noun must take a possessive suffix. Since vardiya ends in a vowel, we add the buffer -s- and the suffix -ı.
How do the suffixes on uygulanmayacak build the meaning 'will not be applied'?
It starts with the verb root uygula- (apply). The -n makes it passive (uygulan-, to be applied). Next is the negative suffix -ma (uygulanma-, to not be applied). Finally, we add the buffer -y- and the future tense suffix -acak, giving us uygulanmayacak (it will not be applied).
