Questions & Answers about Krizi çözmek amacıyla bir rapor hazırlayıp yönetime sunduk.

Why do we use the infinitive çözmek before amacıyla here instead of a verbal noun like çözmemiz?
Because the subject of both actions is the same. We are the ones who prepared the report, and we are also the ones aiming to solve the crisis. When the subject is the same, you simply use the standard infinitive -mAk. You only need the verbal noun (like -mAsI or -mAmIz) when you want a different person to perform the action.
How exactly is the word amacıyla built grammatically?
It is based on the noun amaç (aim or purpose). First, it takes the third-person possessive suffix to link it to the preceding infinitive (literally 'the aim of'). This causes the final 'ç' to soften to 'c'. Finally, the instrumental suffix -(y)la (with) is added, resulting in 'with the aim of'.
Why is it krizi and not just kriz?
It takes the accusative suffix -i because it is the specific direct object of the verb çözmek (to solve). Even though çözmek is acting as an infinitive inside a purpose clause here, it still governs its objects exactly like a regular verb. You are solving 'the' crisis.
Why use hazırlayıp instead of saying hazırladık ve?
The suffix -ip (which becomes -yıp here due to vowel harmony) is a very common way to connect two sequential actions performed by the same subject. While saying hazırladık ve sunduk is not wrong, using -ip is much more natural and concise because it avoids repeating the past tense and 'we' endings.
Why does yönetim (management) take the -e suffix here?
Because of the main verb sunmak (to present or to offer). In Turkish, you present something 'to' a receiver, which requires the dative case. Therefore, yönetim becomes yönetime (to the management).
