Questions & Answers about Bu yapay zekâ, oldukça karmaşık bir algoritma kullanıyor.
This lesson is about kılmak (to make/render). How would we rewrite this sentence to say the AI 'makes the algorithm complex' using kılmak?
You would use the object algoritmayı (the algorithm) and the adjective karmaşık (complex) directly with the verb: Bu yapay zekâ, algoritmayı karmaşık kılıyor. (This AI makes the algorithm complex). Kılmak is often used in formal, abstract, or technical contexts like this, rather than everyday physical actions!
Why is oldukça translated as 'quite' here? Doesn't the -dıkça suffix usually mean 'as long as' or 'the more...'?
Yes, structurally it is olmak (to be) + -dıkça, which normally means 'as it becomes' or 'the more it is'. However, the word oldukça has evolved into a fixed adverb of degree in Turkish meaning 'quite', 'rather', or 'fairly'. Here, it modifies the adjective karmaşık to mean 'quite complex'.
Could we place oldukça after bir, as in karmaşık oldukça bir algoritma?
No. When an adverb of degree (like oldukça, çok, or daha) modifies an adjective, it must come directly before that adjective. The standard word order is always Adverb + Adjective + bir + Noun, making it oldukça karmaşık bir algoritma.
The English translation says the AI 'uses' (simple present), but kullanıyor has the (present continuous) suffix. Why not use the aorist tense ()?
