Questions & Answers about Bu ısı geçirmez kaplama çok dayanıklı.
How does geçirmez translate to "-proof" in this sentence?
The word geçirmez comes from the verb geçirmek (to let pass or transmit) plus the negative aorist suffix -mez. As an adjective, it describes something that "habitually does not let pass." When paired with a noun like ısı (heat), it acts like the English suffix "-proof" (literally: "does not let heat pass").
Why doesn't ısı take an accusative object marker, since it is the thing being blocked?
In these fixed adjectival phrases (like ısı geçirmez or su geçirmez for "waterproof"), the noun being blocked is treated as a general, indefinite concept. Because it is indefinite, it stays in its bare, dictionary form without the specific accusative case suffix.
Is the word kaplama formed from a verb?
Yes, it comes from the verb kaplamak, which means "to cover" or "to coat." The -ma suffix turns the verb into a noun, giving us "coating" or "covering" in this sentence.
How does the suffix structure in dayanıklı work?
It is built on the verb dayanmak (to endure or withstand). The final -lı suffix is the common ending that means "having" or "characterized by." Together, they create an adjective meaning "having endurance," which we translate as "durable."
