Learn Turkish: Teslim sırasında bir sorun çıktı. - A problem came up during the handover.

While çıkmak literally means "to go out" or "to exit," it is widely used in Turkish to mean "to arise," "to appear," or "to emerge." Collocations like sorun çıkmak (a problem coming up) or iş çıkmak (work coming up) are very common and natural.

Could I just say teslimde instead of teslim sırasında?

Yes, teslimde (at/on delivery) is grammatically correct and would be understood. However, teslim sırasında specifically emphasizes the duration or process ("during the handover"). Sırasında acts as a postposition meaning "during" when used in this kind of compound (teslim sıra-sı-n-da).

How would I use the lesson's current grammar to say "provided that a problem doesn't come up during the handover"?

You would turn the verb çıkmak into a negative verbal noun and add şartıyla or koşuluyla. The phrase becomes teslim sırasında bir sorun çıkmaması şartıyla. Notice it's çık-ma-ması, adding the negative marker -ma, the verbal noun -ma, and the possessive -sı to link it with the condition.

Are teslim and teslimat interchangeable here?
