Questions & Answers about Dublaj kötü olsa bile daha iyi bir hasılat yapabilirdik.
How exactly does yapabilirdik give us the meaning "we could have made"?
This is the counterfactual past ability structure you are currently studying. It breaks down into the verb root yap (do/make) + -abil (ability) + -ir (aorist) + -di (past) + -k (we). When you combine the ability suffix with the aorist and past tense (-abil + -irdi), it creates the meaning of "would have been able to" or "could have" done something in the past, strongly implying that it didn't actually happen.
Why is the conditional suffix -sa used in olsa bile here?
The word bile means "even." When you pair it with a verb in the conditional mood (using -sa or -se), it creates the meaning "even if." Here, ol-sa bile sets up the hypothetical condition: "even if it were to be [bad]."
Is hasılat a specific word only used for movie ticket sales?
Not exclusively, though it is the standard translation for a movie's "box office gross." In a broader business sense, hasılat means "revenue," "yield," or "takings." Paired with the verb yapmak (to make/do), hasılat yapmak simply means to generate commercial revenue.
Why does bir come after daha iyi instead of before it?
