Questions & Answers about Bu mücevheri alanlar, yatırım açısından şanslı olacak.
Why is yatırım a bare noun here, without any genitive suffix like yatırımın?
The word açısından (in terms of) works by forming a standard noun compound with the word before it. It literally translates to "from the angle of". Just like "elma suyu" (apple juice), "yatırım açısı" (investment angle) uses a bare noun first. Adding the ablative suffix to the compound gives us yatırım açısından (from the perspective of investment).
Could I use bakımından instead of açısından in this sentence?
Yes, they are completely interchangeable here. Both yatırım bakımından and yatırım açısından translate to "in terms of investment." While açı literally means "angle" and bakım relates to "looking/viewing", they function exactly the same way to express a standpoint or perspective.
How does alanlar translate to "those who buy"?
The suffix -an/-en creates a subject relative clause (who/which/that does). Here, the verb almak (to buy) becomes alan (who buys). Because the noun it describes is omitted (instead of saying "alan kişiler" for "people who buy"), the participle acts as a noun itself. It directly takes the plural suffix -lar to mean "those who buy."
Why is mücevheri in the accusative case if it comes before a participle?
Even though alanlar is functioning as the subject noun of the main sentence ("those who buy will be lucky"), inside its own phrase it is still the verb almak (to buy). Because "this jewel" (bu mücevher) is the specific direct object of that buying action, it must take the definite accusative suffix -i.
