Questions & Answers about Proje boyunca uyuşmazlık devam ettiği takdirde bu kural geçersiz olur.
How is devam ettiği takdirde formed to mean 'in the event that it continues'?
This uses our current lesson's structure for formal conditions. It combines the verb devam et- (to continue) + the participle -dik (which mutates to -tiğ- here due to vowel harmony and consonant mutation) + the 3rd-person possessive -i. Add takdirde (in the case or event) at the end. It is a formal, often legal, alternative to the standard conditional devam ederse.
What is the root of the word uyuşmazlık (dispute)?
It is built from the verb uyuşmak (to agree or harmonize), which originally comes from uymak (to fit). By adding the negative aorist suffix -maz, we get uyuşmaz (incompatible). Finally, the noun-forming suffix -lık turns it into uyuşmazlık (a state of disagreement, or a dispute).
Why does this sentence use the aorist tense olur instead of the future tense olacak?
The aorist tense (-ur / -ar) is frequently used in Turkish for stating general truths, automatic consequences, and established rules. In a formal or contractual context like this, saying geçersiz olur implies 'it automatically becomes invalid' as a matter of rule, rather than just predicting a one-off future event with olacak.
Can you break down how boyunca translates to 'throughout'?
The word boyunca is made of boy (length) + the 3rd-person possessive -u + the buffer -n- + the adverbial suffix -ca. When paired with a noun or time period, it means 'along the length of' or 'throughout.' Thus, proje boyunca literally translates to 'along the length of the project.'
