Questions & Answers about Hastanın bağışıklık kazanmış olması, hemşirenin kaydetmekte olduğu ölçümleri açıklıyor.
What is the difference between saying hemşirenin kaydettiği ölçümler and hemşirenin kaydetmekte olduğu ölçümler?
The structure -mAktA olduğu is a more formal and strictly ongoing version of the present continuous relative clause. While kaydettiği can mean "that she records" (habitual) or "that she is recording", kaydetmekte olduğu specifically means "that she is currently in the process of recording". This structure is very common in formal, medical, or academic contexts.
Why do we use kazanmış olması instead of just kazanması for "gained immunity"?
Using just kazanması would mean "the patient gaining immunity" (as a general concept or a present/future event). By attaching the past/perfect suffix -mIş to the verb and following it with the verbal noun olması (from olmak), we create a perfective meaning. kazanmış olması emphasizes that the action is already complete: "the fact that the patient has already gained immunity".
Both Hastanın and hemşirenin end in the genitive suffix -nIn (meaning "of" or "'s"). Why do they both need it here?
In Turkish, the "subject" of a noun clause or an object relative clause must take the genitive case. Hastanın acts as the subject of the noun clause kazanmış olması (literally: "the patient's having gained"), and hemşirenin acts as the subject of the relative clause kaydetmekte olduğu (literally: "the nurse's being in the act of recording").
Why is there an -i at the end of ölçümleri?
The base plural word is ölçümler (measurements). Because it is the direct object of the main verb açıklıyor (explains), and it refers to specific measurements (the ones the nurse is recording), it must take the definite accusative case suffix -i.
