Questions & Answers about Elektrikli arabaların şarj süresi, pratiklik açısından bir dezavantaj mı?
How exactly is açısından formed here?
It comes from the noun açı (angle or perspective). It takes the third-person possessive suffix -sı to link it to pratiklik, followed by the buffer letter -n-, and the ablative case suffix -dan (from). Literally, it means 'from its angle of'.
Why is it pratiklik açısından without a genitive suffix on pratiklik?
This forms an indefinite noun compound. The first word, pratiklik (practicality), stays in its bare form because we are talking about the general concept of practicality. If we added the genitive suffix to make it pratikliğin açısından, it would sound like we are referring to the perspective of a specific, previously mentioned practicality, which is unnatural.
Could we use bakımından instead of açısından in this sentence?
Yes, pratiklik bakımından is perfectly interchangeable here. Both act as postpositions meaning 'in terms of' or 'from the perspective of' when combined with an indefinite noun compound.
Why does süre take the -si suffix in şarj süresi?
It forms an indefinite noun compound with şarj (charge). Together, şarj süresi means 'charging time'. The whole compound is then possessed by Elektrikli arabaların (electric cars'), but the internal structure of 'charging time' still requires that third-person possessive suffix on the second word.
