CHAPTER - 1
SOME BASIC CONCEPTS
BAZI TEMEL KAVRAMLAR

KISA AIKLAMA
Buradaki almamz, kkenleri itibariyle "alayl" deil "okullu" olsa da, akademik inceleme amac
tamyor. Bilgiler, saptamalar ve rnekler, eitli nedenlerle ngilizce renmek/ilerletmek isteyen
gerek kiiler iindir. Pragmatik yaklam ve pratik zmler nplandadr. Dilbilime zg terminoloji en
aza indirilmi, gereksiz ayrntlar ayklanmtr.
Tabiatyla, akademisyen arkadalar retim programlarnda buradaki pragmatik birikimden
yararlanrlarsa rencileri adna sevinirim. Ama, o kadar...
TEMEL KAVRAMLAR
lk kural, kurallar ezberlemektense, kurallar rnekleyen gerek kullanm tmceleri ile yzlemek,
bunlarn rehberliine gvenmek...
Peki, asgari dzeyde de olsa, neden "kurallara" belli lde yer ayrmak zorundayz ki? Vakit yitirmeden,
alakalem yazmaa, atpat konumaya balasak daha yararl olmaz m?
Bunun yant u: Doal dil renme ana dnebilirseniz (0-4 ya), o gzelim gnbegn 24 saat denemeyanlma (agulama) -- ve bykleriniz tarafndan hogr ve glcklerle dzeltilme -- srecini yeniden
balatabilirsiniz... Buna olananz varsa, durmayn derim...
Deneme-yanlma yntemiyle yllar heba etmek istemiyorsak, yabanc bir dilin mantn ancak
kurallardan balayarak, tmdengelimci yoldan renebiliriz. Kestirme yol bu...
Ama dediim gibi, gramer genel okuyucu iin skc bir konudur: Ksa tutulmasnda ve canl, parlak
rneklerle beslenmesinde yarar var. yleyse balayalm:
Ad (isim -- noun): Gerek yada hayali, somut yada soyut varlklara verilmi adlar...
Sfat (adjective): Bu varlklar eitli ynleriyle niteleyen, niceleyen, tanmlayan, betimleyen,
ayrntlandran szckler... Gnn birisinde Trke'de dilbilgisi terimleri zerine bir alma yapacak
olursam, sanrm ilk tercihlerimden birisi "sfat" yerine", "betimlik" terimini nermek olacaktr.
Fiil (eylem -- verb): Gerek/hayali, somut/soyut olay, eylem, durum, oluumlar belirten szckler...
Fillerle, bilgi aktarm kadar, soru, emir, dilek, koul, veya ("edilgen at" y da dnrsek) eylemden
etkilenme, "kaban znenin bana patlamas" durumlar da iletilir...
Zarf (belirte -- adverb): Eylem ve oluumlar eitli ynlerden niteleyen, ayrntlandran szckler...
Yani,

Sfatlar Adlar... Zarflar Fiilleri -- niteler...

Dikkat: Zarflar ayrca, sfatlar ve dier zarflar da niteleyebilir.


Zarflara rnekler: I wasn't expecting to see you today... Please sit here... She read it carefully... He is very
clever... You must work harder... The rest of the subject is much easier to understand...

Dahas yok mu? Var, tabiatyla... Ama bizim amzdan imdilik bu kadar yeter. Adl (zamir - pronoun),
ilge (edat - preposition), bala (conjunction), nlem (interjection)... Bunlarn ne olduklarn zaten
biliyorsunuz. Ayrntlarna girmesek de olur... Birka rnekle yetineceim:
lgeler (prepositions): He arrived here at 2 o'clock... He rested his head on one of his hands... We met
over the bridge past the central station... Two dogs were running along the street... You mustn't let
yourself be made fun of... (Seninle alay edilmesine izin vermemelisin. "to make fun of smb.")
Balalar (conjunctions): He and I are brothers... We write to one another every now and then... Ali came,
but Gne didn't... She said that she would come today... I will go if I have time... He had to go back
because he had no money left...
nlemler (interjections): Bravo!.. Oh!.. Oh, my God!.. Hush!.. Alas!.. (= Heyhat!)... Good-bye!..
Goodness gracious me!.. (Bu sonuncusu, "stme iyilik salk olsun" anlamnda bir aknlk ifadesidir.)

Temel kurallarmzdan birisi u olacaktr: Her dil esi kimlik ve niteliini, "takdir komisyonu" gibi
alan bir takm gramercilerin (bugne dein szlklere de yansm) ilahi ve deimez saptamasndan
deil, kullanld ortamdaki LEV 'inden kazanr.
te bu ilevler erevesinde, pratik adan bizim iin en nemli birkan yle sralayabiliriz:
Tmce, en az iki eden oluur: zne + Fiil...

Eylemden etkilenen varsa, bunlara nc e olarak


Nesne eklenir.

zne (S, subject); Fiil (V, verb); Nesne (O, object)


ngilizce bir S+V+O dilidir. Ayrca, ekimsiz bir dildir. Nesne durumu iin zel bir ekim yoktur (Yani,
Trke'deki "-- i" durumu gibi). Ksacas, fiilin solundaki ad znedir, sandaki de nesnedir...

zne, eylemi gerekletiren;


Nesne ise eylemden etkilenen, kabak bana patlayandr.
Bu her iki ilevi de ad (= isim) snf eler karlar.

By dream_Catcher

Ayn ekilde, ad-tmcelikler de eylemin znesi yada nesnesi olabilir.

Hatrlaynz: Sfatlar adlar, zarflar eylemleri niteler...


Ayn ekilde, sfat-tmcelikler adlar; zarf-tmcelikler ise eylemleri niteler.
Peki, nedir bu "tmcelik" dediimiz birim? Ad-tmcelik, sfat-tmcelik, zarf-tmcelik de ne ola??
Tanmlar ve rnekler biraz aada...

KM TANIMLAR
Ara Konu: ekilmi Fiil Ne Demektir ?
To see, to be seen = grmek, grlmek... To mean, to be meant = demek istemek, kastedilmek... Bunlar,
fiilin mastar (= the infinitive) durumlardr.
Mastar, olay/eylem/durum/oluumun genel addr. Sz edilen eylemin, kii, zaman yada ileti ortamna
(kip - mood) gre ekilmemi halidir. Oysa,
I saw = "To see" fiilinin birinci tekil kiiye gre haber kipinde "the simple past tense" olarak ekilmi
halidir...
He has gone = "To go" fiilinin nc erkek tekil kiiye gre haber kipinde "the present perfect tense"
olarak ekilmi halidir...
ngilizce fiil ekimlerinin Trke'mize gre byk bir yalnlk tayor olmas, bizleri "Trke renen
ngilizler" deil "ngilizce renen Trkler" olduumuza krettirecek boyuttadr.
* * * * *
Szck bei (phrase) : inde ekilmi bir fiil bulunmayan, tmce iinde (veya dnda) belirgin bir
bek (= grup, takm) olarak, birlikte bir anlam birimi oluturan szck kmesi:
in the house... cats and dogs... my friend's father-in-law... to see a good film...
rnek: "I was hoping to get a chance to meet my friend's father-in-law." ["to meet fiilinin nesnesi olarak
kullanlan ad ilevli bir szck bei]...
Bir szck beini, tmcenin dier elerini tekrarlamaa gerek kalmakszn, bir soruya karlk yant
olarak kullanabilirsiniz... Ama tek balarna sylenecek olsalar bildirim tamamlanmam, damdan dme
ve quel-alaka kalabilir:
- Who, do you think, did it? [Sence, kim yapt bunu?]

- Definitely, my friend's father-in-law. [Kesinlikle, arkadamn kaynpederi.]


Ama, birisi durduk yerde "arkadamn kayn pederi" yada "iyi bir filim grmek iin" deyip sussa, ne
dediini anlamasna anlarz, ama "Eeee, n'olmu" diye de devamn bekleriz.
Tmcelik (clause) : inde ekilmi bir fiil bulunan, ve ekleik veya karmak tmcelerin (az aada
aklanyor) ana birimlerini oluturan yaplar.
You came home late and I have to leave early. [tek tmce iinde birbirine eklenen iki ana-tmcelik]
We will have dinner when you come back. [ana-tmcelik + bal-tmcelik]
when we went there... [oraya gittiimizde... bal-tmcelik]
although she is quite wealthy... [gayet varlkl olmasna karn... bal tmcelik]
Tabiatyla, tekbana sylenecek olursa, bir bal-tmcelik de, "Eeee, n'olmu" sorusunu davet edecektir.
Ana-tmcelik (temel-cmlecik, main clause) : Tekbana ayakta durabilen, kendi iinde "tamamlanm"
anlam tayan; istersek [rnein yazda bana byk harf, sonuna nokta koyarak] bamsz bir tmce
niteliinde kullanabileceimiz tmcelik tr. Doaldr ki, her yaln tmce [tanm aada] tek bir temel
tmcelikten olumaktadr.
Bal-tmcelik (yan-cmlecik, subordinate clause) : Geldik canalc noktaya: Anlamn tamamlanmas iin
bir ana-tmcelie bal ve baml olan tmcelik tr. Bunlar, tekbalarna ayakta duramaz,
"tamamlanm" anlam ifade eden bamsz bir tmce nitelii ile kullanlamazlar.
MD DKKAT: Bir bal-tmcelik, yerine getirdii LEV 'e gre, u snftan birine girer:
1) Ad-tmcelik
2) Sfat-tmcelik
3) Zarf-tmcelik
Bu ilevi yukarda tanmlamtk. Tekrarlayalm:
Ad-tmcelik -- ad stnde -- AD kullanlabilecek her yerde bulunabilir: rnein fiil yada fiillerin zne
yada nesnesi olabilir.
They wondered where he had come from.
Neyi merak ediyorlard? Nereden geldiini... "To wonder" fiilinin nesnesidir ve bu nitelii ile ad-tmcelik
olarak snflanr.
That the firm has gone bankrupt will be known within a few days.
Birka gn iinde renilecek olan nedir? irketin iflas ettii... "That" ile balayan tmcelik, "to be
known" edilgen fiilinin znesidir. Bu nitelii ile de, ad-tmcelik olarak snflanr.

joshua.ranad@gmail.com

By dream_Catcher

Peki ya sfat-tmcelik? Tmcede geen bir ad, rnein zne yada nesneyi, bir sfat ilevi ile niteleyen,
niceleyen, tanmlayan, betimleyen, ayrntlandran bir tmceliktir. Bir ad niteleyen birden ok, veya
birden ok ad ayr ayr niteleyen yine birden ok sfat-tmcelik de kullanlabilir:
The music (which/that) the orchestra is playing is a Strauss waltz.
"The music is a Strauss waltz." = Bu ana (temel) tmceliktir... "(which/that) the orchestra is playing" ise,
"music" szcn (ki, bu bir ad'dr) niteliyor = Orkestrann almakta olduu mzik... O halde bu
ikincisi, "sfat-tmcelik" snflamasna girer.
Peki ya zarf-tmcelik? Tmcede anlatlan olay/eylem/durum/oluumu ok eitli ynlerden niteleyebilen,
ayrntlayabilen tmceliklerdir. Aadaki rneklerde srasyla neden, ama ve tarz bildiriliyor:
Because I believe in their honesty, I'll give them another chance. [Onlara bir ans daha tanyacam.
Neden? "Drst olduklarna inandm iin"]
We must keep the meat in the refrigerator so that it will not go off. [Eti buzdolabnda saklamalyz.
Neden? "Bozulmasn diye"]
The children could come and go as they pleased. [ocuklar gelip gidebiliyorlard. Nasl? "Canlarnn
istedii gibi"]

TMCE TRLER
1. Yaln Tmce (basit tmce - simple sentence)
inde tek ekilmi fiil bulunan, baka bir deyile tek ana-tmcelikten oluan tmce tr:
Ali came home late.
Gne has already finished his homework.
2. Ekleik Tmce (sral tmce - compound sentence)
"And" ve "or" gibi baml klmayan balalarla birbirine eklenmi birden ok ana-tmcelikten oluan
tmle tr. Dilersek bu bala veya balalar kaldrr, tmcelikleri bamsz birer tmce haline
getirebiliriz. (Az aada, bu tr tmcelere ilikin baz nemli ayrntlar vereceim)
Ali comes late and Gne leaves early.
3. Karmak Tmce (bileik tmce - complex sentence)
Bir ana-tmcelik ile buna bal ve baml en az bir bal-tmcelikten oluan tmce tr. Bunlar
birbirinden ayrp koparamazsnz. Koparrsanz, temel-tmcelik anlamca eksilir; bal-tmcelik de

tekbana zaten ayakta kalamaz... (Bunlar kitabmzn "Ad-Tmcelik", "Sfat-Tmcelik", "ZarfTmcelik" blmlerinde ayrntl biimde inceliyoruz.)
Gne warned us that it was time to leave.
[ ana-tmcelik + ad-tmcelik ]
Do you remember the funny man who was conducting the ceremonies?
[ ana-tmcelik + sfat-tmcelik ]
Ali went home after he had finished his work.
[ ana-tmcelik + zarf-tmcelik ]
Although it was a fine day for a picnic, Gne stayed home and watched TV.
[ zarf-tmcelik + ana-tmcelik ]
Doaldr ki, karmak bir tmcede kullanacanz bal-tmcelik says size kalmtr: Demek istediim,
iine "sonsuz" sayda ad-sfat-zarf tmcelik yerletirebilirsiniz. Tabii, karmak bir tmceyi tam bir
labirente evirmeyi gze alyorsanz...
4. Karmak-Ekleik Tmce (complex-compound sentence)
Baml klmayan balalarla birbirine eklenmi birden fazla ana-tmcelik ve bunlara ayrca bal ve
baml bal-tmceliklerinden oluan btn.
Ali went home after he had finished his work
and
although it was a fine day for a picnic
he decided to stay at home and watch TV.
te, ngilizcede rastlayacanz btn tmceleri bu sistematik iinde zgleyip irdeleyebilirsiniz.

ARA BLM
EKLEK TMCELER STNE NOTLAR
Ekleik bir tmcede, birden fazla bamsz tmce, "baml klmayan" balalar (conjunctions)
kullanlarak, ayn at altnda toplanr. Ne var ki, bala kullanlmakszn, yalnzca noktalama iaretleri
ile (konumada uygun tonlama ile) kurulan rnekler de bu balk altnda yer alr.
A Bala (conjunctions) kullanlarak yaplan ekletirmeler: (Dikkat: Her iki tmcede ayn zne
geerliyse, tekrarlanmas zorunluluk tamyor)
Ali grabbed his pen and took down some notes.

She desperately wanted to apologize but did not know how to begin.
We can ask them now, or wait till tomorrow.
Hurry up, or we'll be late.
Never go deep-sea diving on you own; nor must you forget to check all your equipment beforehand.
B Bala kullanlmayan rnekler:
Father was in his study, Mother was in the kitchen cooking dinner.
I wouldn't like to live in stanbul at all; I hate big and noisy cities.
Ali looked at his watch: it was nine o'clock.
Now, which is yours, which is your friend's?
C Zarf (adverb) kullanlarak yaplan ekletirmeler:
We found nobody there, so we decided to go back home.
The situation looks pretty hopeless; still, there's no harm in trying.
She gave up smoking before long; however, that's another story. (= Sigaray ok gemeden brakt -- ama
bu baka bir yk...)
D ok ilgin kimi rnekler:
He said that he wanted a room, and that his friend would come and pay for it within a few hours. (iki
bal tmceliin birbirine eklenmesi)
I didn't bother to reply their invitation, not because I wasn't willing to go, but because I had no time to.
(yukardaki gibi)

Aslnda ngilizce'de Ka eit "X", Ka Trl "Y" Var ?


Bu kitabn akademik amala tasarlanmadn daha nce syledim. yle olmasa, ayrntda boulur,
hedefimizin ok uzana derdik. Bizim amacmz, olanakl en ksa srede olanakl en ie yarar
ngilizce'yi kazanmak... Yoksa "ngilizce'de ka eit "X" veya "Y" vardr?" tr sorulara alacanz
yantn, "Dnyadaki dilci says kadar ok ve deiik," olacandan emin olabilirsiniz...
Ama endielenmenize gerek yok... Burada, olabilecek en yaln izgilerine indirgeyip sunduum, temelde
ileve dayal saptamalarn, kitabn dier blmlerinde yapacamz hertrl tmce zmlemesi iin
yeterli olacana inanmanz dilerim.
te imdi de, "ngilizcede ka eit tmce vardr?" sorusuna farkl bir yaklamla daha yant vermek
istiyorum:
ngilizce bir S+V+O dilidir: Yani, Subject + Verb + Object... (Yani, zne + Fiil + Nesne...)
Fiilin solundaki ad (varlk) faildir, znedir, eylemi yapan kiidir, yada durum/oluumun konusu,
kahramandr. [Dztmcede fiilin solundaki ad; devrik tmcede ise fiilin sana geer. Yaz dilini
dnerek kullandmz "sol, sa" belirlemesini, konumay dndmzde "nce, sonra" eklinde
ifade etmek gerekir]
Fiilin sandaki ad (varlk) nesnedir, yani etkilenen, kabak bana patlayan kii, birim yada varlk alandr.
Bu durum, ngilizce'nin szdizim (sentaks - syntax) dzenidir; bu sralama deitirilemez:
The dog bit the man... Kpek adam srd...
The man bit the dog... Adam kpei srd.
Dikkat ederseniz, ngilizce'de ad durumlarndan (ismin halleri) sz edemiyoruz. zne de, nesne de yaln
haldedir. Kim fiilin soluna geerse zne olur; kim fiilin sana geerse nesne olur.
Trke'de byle mi? Hayr, Trke ekimli bir dildir: zne yaln haldedir, nesne ise -i halinde olmak
zorundadr. te bu nedenle bizler, "Kpek adam srd... Adam kpek srd... Isrd adam kpek...
Kpek srd adam..." gibi szdizim cambazlklar yapabiliyoruz. ngilizce'de ise btn bu nanslar
konumadaki szck vurgularyla karlamak zorundasnz.
te bu S+V+O dizilii ngilizce'deki "dz tmce" diziliidir. Fiil (ounlukla yardmc fiil ile temsil
edilerek) znenin soluna geerse, soru sormu olursunuz. "Did the dog bite the man?... Did the man bite
the dog?...) Buna gre ngilizce'de iki temel tmce trnden sz edebiliriz:
Dz tmce = S+V+(varsa)O
Soru tmcesi = Yard.Fiil+S+V+(varsa)O
DKKAT... DKKAT... Bunlar burada dile getirmemin asl nedeni, ilerde tekrar tekrar
vurgulayacamz bir kurala imdiden dikkatinizi ekmek: Btn bal-tmcelikler dz-tmce olmak
zorundadr. Ad-tmcelik, sfat-tmcelik, zarf-tmcelik soru biiminde olamazlar. [Eer tmcenizin
tamam bir soru tmcesi ise, bu ana / temel tmcelikteki soru dnm ile salanmtr.]
Peki, baka ne gibi tmce trlerinden sz edebiliriz?

rnein, "devrik tmceler" = Bunlar da soru tmcesi eklinde kurulur, ama soru tonlamas yaplmaz;
aktarlan abartl duyguyu ifade eden uygun bir tonlama ile sylenirler. Yazda da soru iareti konulmaz:
[Devrik tmceler, Kitabmzn 16. Blmnde -- Pf Noktalar 01'de -- ok ayrntl biimde ele
alnmaktadr.]
Not even once have I seen him here before! = imdiye dein kendisini burada bir kez bile grmedim!
Were I in your shoes, I wouldn't take such a risk! = Senin yerinde olsam byle bir riski almam!
Hardly had the performance begun when the lights went out. = Gsteri daha yeni balamt ki klar
snd.
Bir de emir cmleleri... Aktr ki bunlar da klasik S+V+O diziliinin dnda gereklemektedir. Bu gibi
farkl yaplardan yeri geldiinde sz edeceiz.
imdilik sadece unu unutmaynz: Btn bal tmcelikler dz tmce olmak zorundadr. Ad-tmcelik,
sfat-tmcelik, zarf-tmcelik soru biiminde olamaz...
Demek ki, artk bir snav sorusunda,
- What time is it?
- I don't know what time is it...
diye yantlarsanz, gnah benden gitti. Dorusu, "I don't know what time it is."

NGLZCE'DE KA ET KP VAR?

Klasik gramerler "mood, modals, modality" gibi kavramlar grup altnda snflar. Bunu yaparken, ou
zaman fiil ekimlerindeki "formel farkllklar" nplana karrlar: 1) The Indicative Mood... 2) The
Subjunctive Mood... 3) The Imperative Mood...
Bunlarn Trke karlklar, 1) Haber Kipi... 2) Dilek-Koul Kipi... 3) Emir Kipi... eklinde nerilebilir.
(Hayr, Trke'yi buna uyduralm, demiyorum.)
Bunlar srasyla, 1) Gereklerin dnyas [insanlar ou zaman yalan sylyor yada samalyor olsalar
da]... 2) Varsaymlarn dnyas... 3) Buyruklarn dnyas olarak tanmlayabiliriz.
Gelelim bu kitapta kullandm (ve anadili Trke olan bizler iin farkl bir vurgulama ile sunduum)
snflamaya:
1. The Indicative Mood (Haber Kipi)...
2. The Conditional Mood (Koul kipi)...

3. The Subjunctive Mood ("Dilek" Kipi)...


4. The Imperative Mood (Emir Kipi)...
kincisi ve ncs zerinde zellikle duruyorum; nk, bana gre, Anglo-Sakson dil-kltr dizgesinin
bir anahtar da burada yatyor....
"Mood" ("Kip") szcnden ise, iletiim ortamn, trn, yaklam ve tarzn anlyoruz: Buna gre,
Haber Kipi (insanlar ou zaman yalan sylyor yada samalyor olsalar da) "gereklerden" sz ediyor.
Koul ve Dilek Kipleri, varsaymsal bir dnyaya ilikin nermelerden oluuyor. Emir Kipi de,
buyruklarn yada (bunlar yumuatlarak) "ricalarn" dnyasn yanstyor...
Kitabmzn kinci Blmde, "Vira Bismillah" deyip, Haber Kipini oluturan 12 "Tense" (= zamanlar) ile
ie balayacaz.

NGLZCE TERSTEN M ANLAILIR?!

ngilizce ile Trke'yi, gramer ve szdizim asndan karlatrdmz bu blmde, uygulamada


grdm ok byk bir yanlgya da burada deinmeliyim.
ou kitapta, "ngilizce bir tmce tersten anlalr" eklinde ok garip bir nermeye tank oluyorum. zel
ders veren ou kimsenin de bu yanlgy rencilerine aktardklarn biliyorum.
Ne demek ola ki bu? Yani, bu ngilizler, Amerikallar, Yeni Zelandallar, vb. bir tmce sylyor; sonra
tersten gidip tmcenin anlamn zyor, sonra bir sonraki tmceye mi geiyorlar!!
Buradaki yanlg ve kavram kargaasnn nedeni belli: ngilizce bir tmceyi "anlamak" ile, bunu "derli
toplu ekilde Trke'de ifade etmeyi" (yani, eviriyi) birbirine kartryorlar...
Tabiatyla, anadili ngilizce olan (native speakers), yada ok iyi ngilizce bilen kiiler, konuurken veya
yazarken, tmcenin anlamn szckler pepee sralandka "simltan" biimde zyor; tmce bitince
yeniden geriye dnp anlamaa almak gibi bir davran iinde olmuyorlar.
Ve yine tabiatyla, bizim de amacmz, ngilizce'ye hakimiyetimiz yeterli dzeye geldiinde, araya
Trke'yi sokmadan, "ngilizce'yi ngilizce olarak" dorudan anlamak... Bu bir sre. Giderek geliecek.
Bu arada, istesek de istemesek de, Trke'ye bavuracaz. Ama hangi Trke'ye? Deyimi mazur grn:
Tarzanca Trke'ye bavuracaz... ki dil arasndaki szdizim (sentaks) farkll bunu kanlmaz
klyor. nk, ngilizce bir tmcenin Trke'deki paralel izdm ancak "Tarzanca" ifade edilebilir.
Bir tmceyi hzla anlayp bir sonrakine gemek iin "Tarzanca" ile yetinmeliyiz. Ha, birisi bizden "derli
toplu bir eviri" yapmamz isterse, o zaman durup, ngilizce tmcenin elerini gzel Trke'mizin
szdizim kurallarna gre yeniden dzenleriz.

Pratikte btn bunlar ne demektir?


Trke'de "Kpek adam srd" tmcesini oluturan szckleri ayr ayr birer fi zerine yazalm ve
masann zerine rastgele yayalm. Yine de, kimin kimi srd kubak hemen anlalacaktr. Neden?
nk, Trke ekimli bir dildir: Kim'in kim-i srd, szcklerin yerlerini dilediiniz kadar deitirin,
ekimlerden bellidir.
Ayn uygulamay, ngilizce "The dog / bit / the man" tmcesini oluturan elerle yapn; szcklerin
srasn kartrn: Tmce asla anlalamayacak yada farkl anlalacaktr.
Neden? nk ngilizce'de szdizim, anlamn ana direidir: Anlam ileten, szcklerin ardarda diziliidir.
Farkl dizerseniz, farkl anlam elde edersiniz.

te btn bu nedenlerle:

ngilizce tmceyi anlamann gerek yolu, kendilerinin de yapt gibi, szck stne szck aldka
anlamlar ulayarak gitmektir. Bunu yaptnz zaman da, Trke paralel anlatmda ortaya kan sralama
"Tarzanca" dr...
...ve (eer henz hala Trke'ye bavurma aamasnda iseniz) ngilizce bir tmceyi hzla anlamann
kesinlikle en iyi yoludur.

Merakls in Ksa Bir Not: ngilizce'yi "dorudan" anlamak ve nce zihinde Trke'ye evirme gerei
duymamak gibi konular, psiko-dilbilim ve nro-dilbilim asndan tabii ki ok heyecanl bir tartma
oluturuyor. Baka bir kitapta, umarm, doya doya tartrz. Burada yalnzca u iki noktay kastettiimi
sylemekle yetinmek zorundaym: 1. Kafamzdaki kavram ve imgeleri, "Trke" sentaks ve simgelerin
araclna gerek duymadan, dorudan "ngilizce" sentaks ve simgeler ile badatrabilmek... Yada, 2.
(Noam Chomsky'nin diliyle konuursak) "derin yapnn" (dil yeteneimizin) Trke deil, dorudan
ngilizce kalplarla "yzeyel yapya" (kullanm dzeyine) dntrlmesi...

EK DEERLENDRME
te bu nedenle, ngilizce'de szckleri ve tmcelikleri ardarda ulayarak "sonsuz" uzunlukta tmceler
oluturabilirsiniz. Rahata kurulup, sorunsuz anlalabilirler. Olay yalnzca, elerin ardarda diziliidir...
Ama, Trke'de ekimli eleri biraz fazlaca ayrn, araya fazlaca szck doldurup sz uzatn, anlamn
ucu kaar; kimin kimi sevdii, kimin kimi dvd anlalmaz hale gelir. Trke'de kural "ksa tmce"
kurmaktr.
Deerli evirmenler: Ltfen her ngilizce tmceyi Trke'ye tek para halinde aktarmaa almaynz.
Blnz, paralaynz -- ki Trke'de anlalabilirlik kazansn.

iin, temel kavram boyutlarndan birisidir.
Peki, neden bunca kitapta sz gemez, neden Trkler iin yazlan gramerlerde hakettii yeri
alamamtr? Birinci yant: Yabanclar tarafndan zel olarak Trkler iin yazlm ka tane gramer
biliyorsunuz? kinci yant: Yabanclarn yazd gramerlerden eviri olmayan, zgn yazlm ka tane
gramer duydunuz, grdnz?
Ksacas, dnyay "Trke" dil-kltr dizgesi penceresinden grp kavrayan bizler iin, "aklayc ve
anlalabilir bir ngilizce gramer" ancak her iki dil-kltr dizgesine de aina kimseler tarafndan ortaya
konulabilir.
Bu szlerimle, kendime "tevazu snrlarn zorlayan" bir pay kardm dnenler iin hemen
syleyeyim: Evet, o grev ve erefe talibim... Ve, bana gvenmenizi diliyorum...
Yukarda deindiimiz konu, lkemizde yabanc dil retiminde yaplan temel bir yanla iaret ediyor.
retilmesi gereken, dil-kltr sisteminin nplana karlmas, o insanlarn hangi gerek ortamda hangi
dilsel anlatmlar kullandnn retilmesidir.
nemli bir konuya daha deinmeliyiz: Geri, btn ngilizce konuulan lkelerde "standart" saylabilecek
bir ortak dil paydasndan kabaca sz edilebilir (ve biz de kitabmzda sizlere bunu kazandrmay
umuyoruz). Ama aslnda, ngiliz ngilizcesi, Amerikan lehesi, Londra "Cockney" az, Texas kovboy
az... Silicon Valley bilgisayar jargonu... Tp dili, antropoloji dili, futbol jargonu, ikago yeralt
argosu... ngiltere'deki mzayede veya sanat eletirmenlii jargonu... Yada Yeni Zelanda balk, yahut
Avustralya ifti az gibi ok daha daraltlm kavramlardan sz etmek daha yerinde ve gereki olur.
("dil", "lehe", "az" ve "jargon" lar...)
Yani, amaca gre dil... Bana, hangi amala, ne dzeyde "yabanc dil" renmek istediinizi syleyiniz,
sizin iin zel bir program gelitirip gelitiremeyeceime bakaym. Doru deil mi ama? Bilmediiniz
bireyi retmeye kalkmadan nce, kendi bilgimizin snr ve kstllklarn gzden geirmeliyiz...

Bu yaklam benimsenmedike, "ngilizce" retiyoruz/reniyoruz" sav fahi bir aldatmaca, safdil bir
aldanmaca kalacaktr. te bu nedenle, "Bizim olan, bizim kz okulda alt yl yabanc dil okudu; yl da
kurslara gitti; ama turistlerle iki kelimeyi biraraya getirip konuamyor..."
Ve yine, "lisaniyat" dallarnda doentlik adaylarna "nebatat", gzel sanat alanlarndaki adaylara da iktisat
sorular soruluyor. Feryatlar bu noktada hakl... Yoksa snav geme notunun (ki bence ok dk
tutuluyor) "ykseklii" noktasnda deil... Uak kullanmak iin gerekli bilgilerin yzde kana sahip
bulunmayan bir pilot adayna uu sertifikas vermeyi gze alabilirsiniz ki?
Tabiatyla, yaz ve konuma arasndaki farklln bile gndeme gelmedii bir yabanc dil "eitimi"
ortamnda byle bir yaklam beklemek abes olur. Bunun iin yurdum insan yllarca yabanc dil
okuduktan sonra turistlerle iki kelimeyi bir araya getiremiyor, yada bir Amerikan niversitesinde kendi
dalnda ders veren bir deerli bir bilim adam YK'n dzenledii dil snavnda "akyor"!

YAZI DL - KONUMA DL
Efendim, bizim ocuk liseyi bitirdi, stne de yl kursa gitti, hal turistlerle iki kelimeyi bir araya
getiremiyor...
Sayn Yazar, bize konumay retebilir misiniz? Yzyze olsak, evet, sizinle konuarak elimden geleni
yapmaa alrm. Bir kitapta ise, olsa olsa gerek durumlarda kullanmanz yerinde olacak kalplar
listeleyip, ezberlemenizi nerebilirim. Ama, bu kadarla yetinecek olursak (ou eitim kurumunda
bununla yetiniyorlar) adamlarla yzyze geldiinizde ne sizin onlar nede onlarn sizi anlamayacana
bahse girerim.
nk yaz, konumann kendisi deil, yalnzca yazdaki temsilidir. Hele bunu ngilizce gibi "ok
fonetik" (aadaki paragrafa bknz.) bir dilde topu topu 26 harf ve bir avu noktalama iareti ile
yapyorsanz, ok yetersiz bir temsildir.
[Ara aklama: Dnmeden basmakalp yinelenen, "ngilizce'nin ok fonetik bir dil" olduu sz, ok
byk bir yanlg... Tam tersine, ngilizce'nin yazl (ortografi) hi de "fonetik" filan deil... "Fonetik"
deyimi ile aslnda, konumann yazda "yakn temsili" kastedilmek gerekirdi.]
Yine de burada konuma ngilizce'nize katks olacak baz neri ve ipularna yer vereceim. Hi
olmazsa, benim gibi orta retimde 6 yl, filolojide 1 yl okuduktan sonra (= yani hibirey renmeden)
adamlarn memleketine gidip edebiyat ve dilbilim okumaa balayp, ancak iki yl sonra (fazla kaln
kafal da saylmam ama), "Yahu, bu dabl-yu dedikleri ey, "dubl-ve" deilmi... Yani V'nin katmerlisi
deil, U'nun katmerlisi imi..." gibi byk keifler yapmak zorunda kalmazsnz.
Ksacas, sizlere sesbilim ve ngilizce'nin telaffuz (sesleri boumlama) ve vurgulama zellikleri
bakmndan gerekli baz n-bilgiler vereceim ve bunlar ok iinize yarayacak.

ELEMENTARY PHONOLOGY AND PHONEMICS

FARKLI SESLER
Yazl herkes iin ayn olan bir Trke szc nasl ki yurdum insanlar lkenin drtbir kesinde
farkl farkl seslendiriyorlarsa, dnyann drtbir kesine ihra edilmi olan Ingilizce iin de ayn ey
geerlidir...
Sizlere, temelde BBC ngilizcesi stne kurulu, ama dnyann hibir kesinde sizi yaya brakmayacak
bir seslendirme sistemi sunuyorum.
Bunu yaparken, Trke harflerin de salad olanaklardan yararlanarak, sizleri skmayacak asgari lde
fonetik iareti kullanacam. nk akademik dzeyde ilgilenmeyenler iin, nekadar ok fonetik iaret
kullanrsanz, insanlar o derece soutursunuz.
Kitapta kullanacamz iaretleri aada sralyorum:
: Trke'de bulunmayan bir fonem: /a/ ile /e/ aras. rnekler: cat /kt/, black /blk/, man /mn/... Eer
siz nl "I'm bad!" arksn /aym-bed/ diye telaffuz ediyorsanz, "Ben yatak-m" demi oluyorsunuz.
Dorusu, /aym-bd/.
: /a/ ile /o/ aras... UK ngilizcesinde /o/ ya daha yakn; USA ingilizcesinde /a/ ya daha yakn... O
yzden kimisinden "hotdog", kimisinden "hatdag" iitiyor, ikilemde kalyor zavall kulaklarmz!
rnekler: hot /h t/, fog /f g/, dock /d k/, clock /kl k/.
I : (Schwa) : Bunun zerinde ok dndm. Aslnda dilin orta blmlerinde biryerlerde boumlanan
"schwa" sesi ile kyaslandnda Trke'deki // sesi, ok nde ve dar. Bu fonemi internet ortamnda /@/
veya baaa "e" ile temsil edenler var. Schwa sesini, sizleri uyarmak kouluyla, burada bizim "" harfi
ile temsil etmee karar verdim. Ancak, bizdeki // sesi ile birebir ayn olmadn da yeniden
vurgulamalym. Bu "schwa" konusu ngilizce sesleme sisteminin ana direklerinden birisi ve vurgulama
sistemi ile de iie... Hemen btn vurgusuz hecelerdeki nl, dilin orta blgelerinde oluturulan bu
renksiz ve gsz seslie yuvarlanyor.
: ki nokta stste iareti, kendisinden nce gelen sesin uzatlacan gsterecektir. Ama bunu yaparken
sesi iki defa sylemee deil, uzatmaa dikkat edin. Yani rzgar /uu/ diye esmiyor, /u:/ diye esiyor. Rakip
takm da /yuuh/ diye slklamayn. Dorusu: /yu:h/.
/r/ sesini, BBC ngilizcesinde telaffuz edilmiyorsa, gstermeyeceim. Ama ayn szcn USA
ngilizcesinde ise gayet belirgin bir biimde seslendirilip yuvarlandn da bilmelisiniz. Tercih sizin: Her
ikisi de standart ngilizce...
Geldik ba belas drt foneme (seslik, sesbirim):
N = BU iaretle "-ing" son-ekinde biz Trklerin birtrl beceremediimiz sesi gstereceiz. /n/ sesinden
yola kp, /g/ ynnde ilerlerken, oralarda biryerlerde duracaksnz ve /g/ yi asla duymayacaz: I'm
going home /aymgouiNoum/ Byle bireyler ite... Ben braktmda, niversitedeki det, bebein "nga
nga" diye alamasndan misal getirmekti. Hala yle midir, bilemem...

w = Ad stnde, "dubluve" deil... "Dablyu", yani /v/ nin katmerlisi deil, /u/ nun katmerlisi. Hakkn

yaparken, etrafa birka kk tkrk sratamyorsanz, tam baaramyorsunuz demektir. Bu sesi, u

yakndr. nk birincisi patlamal, ikincisi szc bir sesliktir. "I think": Biz bunu "ay tink" diye syleriz.
Franszlar da "ay sink" derler. Her ikisi de yanl, ama ngilizler Franszlar anlar da bizi anlamazlar...
Bir de u noktaya dikkat ediniz, ltfen. Eitimsiz kulamz, Trke'nin seslikler dizgesinde yer almayan
bu sesi iitince, buna kimi zaman /f/ sesini yaktrr. Oysa, /f/ sesini olutururken, alt dudak kvrlp st
dilerin altna temas ettirilir. // sesinde ise, dudak dmdz yerinde duruyor ve dilerle yalnzca dilin ucu
temas ediyor...
= Ve tabii, yukardakinin karnda. Oradaki titreimsiz (yani ses kirileri / "telleri" titretirilmiyor) iken,
bu da onun "titreimli" kardei. Pelthek kardein /badzi badzi/ yryen kardei... rnekler: this /is/, then
/en/, those /ouz/...
imdi bu ba belalarnn buraya kocaman resimlerini asyorum. Eminim ki grnce onlar heryerde
tanyacaksnz:

: w N "r"

DKKAT... DKKAT... imdi de geldik, biz Trklerin ngilizce'nin telaffuzunda en ok glk


ektiimiz sese... Yani, alfabede "v" harfi ile gsterilen ses. Trke'de /v/ sesinden /w/ sesine kadar
hereyi bu harfle gsteriyoruz. Yani, Trke'deki /v/ sesi "Walla, bayaa yuwarlak"... Oysa, ngilizce'de
ikisi arasnda en kk bir akrabalk bile yok.
Daha nce de iaret ettiim gibi, "dabl-yu", /u/ sesinin katmerlisi... /v/ sesinin deil...
/v/ sesinin karnda ise, /f/ sesi. nk, ikisi de oluturulurken, konuma organ ve boluklarnn konumu
tpatp ayn: Yalnzca, birincisi "titreimli" karde, ikincisi de "titreimsiz" karde...
O halde, /v/ sesini boumlamak iin: dudaklar tamamen yayVan, alt dudak st dilerin altna deiyor ve
/f/ demek zereyken, /v/ diyeceksiniz (yani ses kirilerini devreye sokmu olacaksnz)... Aksi halde, sizi
anlamalar asla ve asla szkonusu deildir. nannz ki, bizler iin ngilizce'deki en zor ses bu sestir;
nk Trke'den nyarglyz; stelik herkes bir "dablyu" dur tutturmu, dikkatimizi oraya eliyorlar.
(Oysa, deminki kaln dudakl zenciye bir pck verin: ite size "dablyu"...)
Bu arada, /w/ ve /wh/ arasndaki nemli farka da dikkatinizi ekmek isterim: kincisi "aspire" edilen bir
ses olmasyla byk farkllk tar. Telaffuz ederken ayna tutsanz, buulanacaktr. nk "hohlamak" ile
birliktedir. rnein, "what" ve "watt" szcklerinin okunuu birbirinden ok farkldr. Bu telaffuz fark
anlam deitirebildiine gre, bunlar birer varyasyon deil, ayr birer fonem (sesbirim, seslik) olarak
dnmek gerekir.Yani "what" szcn,
/vat/ eklinde okursanz, ince olur.
/wat/ eklinde okursanz, kif "James Watt" anlalr.

HECE VURGUSU

Trke aa yukar "yazld gibi okunduu" iin anslyz. stelik Trke'de hece vurgusu, pek az
szck dnda anlam deitirmiyor (ge-lin ve ge-lin, gibi)... yleki, Trke'yi tamamen kitaplardan
renen bir yabanc, size telefon ederek u heceleri pepee sralasa, eminim ki anlalacaktr:
Bu-ak-am-an-ka-ra-ya-u-ak-laa-gee-li-yo-rum...
Yani, bizler bu arky "dm-teketek" dzeninde de syler, "teketek-dm" dzeninde de anlarz!!!

rnek mi? Baknz, biz Trkler "interesting" szcn belki de %90 orannda yanl sylyoruz: / intres-tiN / diyoruz. Oysa dorusu / in-trestiN /... Yani, "dm-teketek" dzeninde olmas gerekiyor.
Karmzdaki ngiliz yada Amerikal'nn, (bizim bu szc nasl yanl telaffuz ettiimiz konusunda nbilgisi yoksa) anlamas szkonusu deil.
Elimizde iki heybetli sorun var: 1. ngilizcede kullanlan bize yabanc sesler (fonemler, sesbirimler); ve,
2. Entonasyon... (Tonlama konusunda imdilik yalnzca hece vurgusu, yani syllabic stress/accent zerinde
duracam).
Vurgulu heceleri, iki yannda "-" iareti ile ayrlm kaln (bold) yaz ile gstereceim. Okurken bu
heceye gelince bir an duraklaynz ve ardndan heceyi PATLATINIZ. Szcn dier blmlerini, sanki
duyulmasn istemiyormusunuz gibi yuvarlayarak ve hzla syleyiniz. (kincil vurgular imdilik
grmezden geliyorum.)
Konuyu olabildii lde basite indirip zetle ele aldm; ama unutmaynz ki dnyann gelmi gemi en
byk dramatist airi olan Shakespeare'in msralar temelde hece vurgularn kullanmaktaki ustalnda
hayat bulmutur. (Kulland "iambic pentameter" vezni, ardarda be adet tek-dm ritminden oluur. Bu

SOME NOTES ON THE TURKISH PHONEMIC SYSTEM FOR LEARNERS OF TURKISH


Most of the vowels are pronounced in a similar manner with those found in Italian and many of the
consonants do not differ from those found in English. Exceptions are: -Undotted "", both capital and small, is pronounced as in the first syllable of Cyril...
Dotted "i", both capital and small, is pronounced as in sit, bit...
"" and "" are pronounced as in German...
17

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

"g" is always hard as in go, get...


"c" is pronounced as in jar, jam, jacket...
"" is pronounced as in church...
"" is pronounced as in shop, sharp...
"j" is pronounced as in French, and as in measure, treasure...
As for "", for the time being, you may regard it as a sign pointing to a lengthening of the preceding
vowel. But, your best bet would be getting a Turkish friend of yours to show you the peculiarities of this
articulatory monstrosity!

Yeryzndeki dil-kltr sistemlerinin byk blm iin, fiilerin zaman asndan ekilmesi temel
dn tarzdr. Zaman bilinci nplandadr. "Nezaman" sorusuna odaklanm bizler iin, "tense" leri
olmayan bir dil, "gemi, imdiki, gelecek" snflamas bulunmayan bir varolu boyutu tasarlamak olanak
d... Varolua farkl yaklam rnekleri bugn iin yalnzca birka cra Kzlderili dilinde grlebiliyor.
..
Yabanc dil renirken, ivedi ve ncelikli bilgi alan o dilin "zamanlar" dr. Bu bilgiden yoksun olan kii
meramn yarm yamalak, blk prk anlatsa da, yeterli iletiim dzeyi salayamaz:
"Var ben (dn) eve gitmek... Var ben (imdi) ackmak... Var ben (yarn) Jane'i grmee gitmek..." Tarzan,
zamanlar bilmedii, fiilleri ekemedii iin byle konuuyor.
Tmcenin indirgenebilecei en az iki e, ekilmi bir fiil ve onun znesidir (verb, subject). Fiil,
olay/durum/eylemi iletir. zne ise, eylemi kimin gerekletirdiini, yada kimin bu durumda olduunu
syler.
Nesne (object), eylemden kimin/neyin etkilendiini, "kaban kimin bana patladn" anlatr. Tmcenin
(varsa) dier eleri de, olaya ilikin verilmek istenen ayrntlar ekler: zne yada nesneyi niteleyen
sfatlar, eylemleri niteleyen belirteler (zarflar)... Veya, yine sfat ve zarf ilevli ilave kalplar, szck
bekleri, bal tmcelikler... Kabaca izgileriyle, tmceyi oluturan eler bunlardr.
Ksacas, "Ali gelmek... Gne ackmak..." trnden yarm yamalak iletiim abalarna, "Ali
geldi/geliyor/gelecek... Gne ackmt/ackm/ ackacaktr..." niteliinde bir iletiim yeterlii
kazandrmak iin "tense" lere gereksinim duyuyoruz. Tense'ler bizim iin en temel bilgi alandr.
Aslnda, farkl dil-kltr dizgelerine sahip kiilerin aralarnda iletiim kurabilmelerine (eer
kurabiliyorlarsa) "mucize" gzyle bakmak gerekir... nk, "tense" ler dahil, birbirine tam paralel iki dil
bulmak olanaksz... rnein, Kzlderili Hopi dilini reniyor olsaydk, "tense" diye bir sorunumuz
olmayacakt: nk Hopi dil-kltr dizgesi dnyaya, bizim anladmz "gemi - imdiki - gelecek"
zaman erevesi dnda bakyor. Ama bu saptama, besbellidir ki, ngilizce renmek peinde olan bizler
iin, derdimize are deil...
Sonu? Herbir dil, kendine zg, dierlerinden eitli alardan/leklerde farkl bir dil-kltr dizgesi
niteliindedir. ngilizce "tense" ler ve Trke'deki "zaman" larn zde olabileceini sanmak bounadr.
Kimi yerlerde yksek lde benzerlik hatta edeerlik, kimi yerlerde ise tam bir benzemezlik / farklln
geerli olduunu greceiz.

NASIL BR YAKLAIM SUNUYORUZ ?


"Tense" ler okullarda, kurslarda, dershanelerde retilen temel bilgi odaklarndandr. Ama ou kez,
renci tense'lerin temel yapsn renmesine karn, hangisini nerede kullanmas gerektii bilgisinden
yoksundur. Kafasnda bu konu akla kavumam, pekok soru taklp kalmtr. Bunun nedenleri,
1. letiim balam ve bunun dile yansmasnn nplana alnmamas (o dil-kltr dizgesinde hangi gerek
durumlarda hangi "tense"lerin -- yada tm teki dilsel elerin -- kullanlaca bilgisinin
kazandrlmamas)...

2. Tense'lerin deiik "nite" ler halinde, birbirinden kopuk biimde verilmesidir.


Biz bu noktada karlatrmal bir yaklam benimsiyoruz. Vereceimiz genel tabloda, tense'lerin kendi
aralarnda yaam ve deneyim alanmz nasl bltklerine ilikin ematik bilgi sunulacak, ardndan
herbirinin kullanld yerler yine karlatrmal biimde ele alnacaktr. Egzersizlerde de karlatrma
olana salanmas n planda tutulmutur.

NG. TENSE'LER TABLOMUZ


nce MOOD (= iletiim ortam, dzlemi veya tarz = kip) kavramndan ksaca sz edelim. Trke kip
rnekleri verelim: Haber kipi, koul kipi, dilek kipi, emir kipi...
ngilizce'de de bunlarn be aa be yukar karl, the indicative mood, the conditionals, the
subjunctive mood, the imperative mood... Bu anlatm ortamlarnda, tpk trke'deki gibi, farkl kurallar
geerlidir, fiiller de farkl ekilirler. (DKKAT: ekim ayn olsa bile, ilettii anlam farkldr. Ayrca
"ekim" asl fiilin kendisi veya yardmc fiillerin ekilmesi yoluyla olabilir.)
Bu Blmde ele alacamz Haber kipi, gerek durumlardan sz eder. (Hernekadar insanlar ou kez
yanlyor yada yalan sylyor olsalar da...)
ngilizce'de koul ve dilek kiplerinin zelliklerinden ayr birer blmde sz edeceiz. Emir kipine ise,
yeri geldike ksaca deineceiz.

HABER KP

ngilizce haber kipinde 12 TENSE bulunmaktadr. Tablomuzda bunlar l bir snflama ile ematik
hale getirilmitir:
A) Yaam deneyim alanmz, gemi / imdiki zaman / gelecek ( yani, past / present / future ) blklerine
ayrlmtr. Her blkte 4'er tense yer alr. Yani ng. haber kipinde 4 adet past tense, 4 adet present tense,
4 adet future tense vardr.

TENSE'LERE LKN ALTIN KURALLAR

1. "PERFECT" KAVRAMI VE SORUNU


ngilizce bildii savnda olan ou kimseye aadaki Trke konuma rneini veriyoruz ve ngilizce'ye
evirmesini istiyoruz:
-- Hadi gidip "Mumya" filmini grelim.
-- Yoo, teekkr ederim. Ben o filmi grdm.
-- Ne zaman grdn?
-- Geen hafta grdm.
Yurdum ngilizce Bileni eviriyor:
-- Let's go and see "The Mummy".
-- No, thanks. I saw that film. [HAVE SEEN olmal!]
-- When did you see it?
-- I saw it last week.
Okulda/kursta/dershanede hocama soruyorum: "Hocam, bu da grdm, bu da grdm. Aralarndaki fark
ne?"

Hocam da, kendi hocalarndan yle renmi olduu, stne de pek kafa yormam olduu iin cevap
veriyor: "Yakn gemi iin simple past, biraz uzak gemi iin (rnein be yl ncesi) present perfect,
ok uzak gemi iin (rnein krk yl) past perfect..."
Neden hocam? "nk, past perfect bizim mi'li gemiimiz..." vb. ile balayan yantlar.... Sanki tm
diller gramer zelliklerini evrensel bir modele gre oluturmular, paylamlar gibi... Sanki ngilizce'nin
mantn, Trke ablonuna bavurarak aklayabilirmiiz gibi...

ZM :
"Past Tense eittir Di'li Gemi, Past Perfect eittir Mi'li Gemi, vb" gibi dayanaksz yorumlardan uzak
durmalsnz. Her present perfect'i di'li gemile evirmee, "mi" grdnz her yerde past perfect
kullanmaa kalkrsanz banz dertten kurtulmayacak demektir.
Yaplabilecek tek ey, ngilizce'de hangi durumlarda hangi tense'lerin kullanld bilgisine bavurmaktr.
Somutlatralm: ngilizce asndan, verdiimiz konuma rneinin ikinci satrndaki "see" eyleminin ne
zaman gereklemi olduu belirsiz ve nemsizdir. n plana karlan kavram, u an itibariyle bu eylemin
gereklemi durumda olmasdr: "Ben o filmi grm bulunuyorum, grm durumdaym." (= ok
gzeldi, hadi gidip bir daha grelim; veya, Bover, bir daha ekilmez walla...)
Drdnc satrda ise dikkat oda zaman boyutudur. Olaydan, gemite belli ve belirtilen bir noktada
gereklemi bir eylem nitelii ile sz ediliyor. Dikkatimiz o noktaya yneliyor. Past tense kullanm
zorunluluk tayor.
Herbir tense iin kullanm zelliklerinden ayr ayr sz edeceiz. Ama burada, perfect kavram iin bir
genelleme yapalm: Ayrc zellik udur:
Sz edilen eylemin, oluumun, yada durumun zaman boyutundaki yeri, konumu, koordinatlar belli ise,
nemliyse, belirtmek istiyorsak, aka veya zmnen belirtiyorsak, perfect tense kullanmayacaz.
(Zmnen derken ne kastediyorum? Biz "stanbul'da domuum" diyebiliriz. Yani, mi'li gemi
kullanabiliriz... Ama ngilizce'de doru anlatm, "I was born in stanbul," yani simple past tense olmak
zorunda. nk olayn, u an itibariyle gemite kalm belli bir tarihte gereklemi olduu "zmnen"
bilinmektedir.
Burada "mi'li gemi, yleyse past perfect eklinde dnmek -- "I had been born in stanbul" tamamen
yanltc olur. nk Past Perfect iin kullanlma kural ok ak: gemiteki bir noktann daha ncesi.
Ama eer, "I had been born in stanbul before we moved to zmir" = "stanbul'da domuum, zmir'e
tanmadan nce," diye sz sanatndan garip rnekler vermek istiyorsanz. o sizin bileceiniz i... Gramer
yalnzca bu tmcenin geerli olduunu syleyecektir: Samalayp samalamamak ayr bir olay...
Zamann belli olduu bir cmlede -- nekadar derin bir gemi boyutunda yer alm olursa olsun -- past
perfect kullanamazsnz. Simple past kullanmak zorundasnz. Brakn krk yl filan, 15 milyar yl
ncesinden sz edelim:
TRKES : Evren gnmzden 15 milyar yl nce olumutur. ("Olutu" diyemezsiniz: "Sen orda
mydn? diye sorarlar adama.)

YANLI EVR : The universe had come into being 15 billion years ago.
DORU EVR : The universe came into being 15 billion years ago.
(Not: "By 15 billion years ago, the universe had already been in existence," gibi bir tmce ise geerli bir
tmcedir. "By," zaman bildiren ifadelerde, "nce" anlamna gelir. "Gnmzden onbe milyar yl
ncesine gelindiinde evren artk olumutu..." diyor, ki bu da past perfect iin belirlediimiz "gemiteki
bir noktadan ncesi" tanmna uygundur.)

NGLZCE'DE "ZAMANIN BELL OLMASI" NE DEMEKTR ?


ok basit... "When?... what time?..." gibi sorulara cevap verebiliyor isek, eylemin zaman belli demektir.
Ancak zamann belli ve biliniyor olmas, mutlaka "past tense" kullanacaz anlamna gelmez. laveten,
dikkatimizin zaman boyutundaki o noktaya ynelmi olmas, olayn o zaman diliminde gereklemi
olmasn nemsiyor ve gizlemek istemiyor olmamz gibi ek artlar da szkonusudur.
Eer iletmek istediimiz anlam, "Ne zaman olduysa oldu, bu nemli deil; nemli olan bunun u an
zerindeki etkisi" ise, tercihimiz "present perfect" olacaktr.
"Karnm doyurdum, karnm tok..." kavram eer, "Ve dolaysyla u anda a deilim, u anda yemek
istemiyorum" anlamna kullanlyorsa present perfect tense kullanm gerektirir. (= I've had dinner, I have
eaten, thank you...) nk dikkatimiz gemiteki yemek olay zerine deil, u an iinde bulunduumuz
duruma ilikindir ve present zamandan sz edilmektedir.
Ayn ekilde, "1984 ylndan beri zmir'de oturuyorum" tmcesi, grld gibi, Trke'de "present
continuous" ile anlatlmaktadr. Ama, ngilizce'de present perfect continous ile anlatlmak zorunda:
nk "Nezaman?" sorusuna deil, "Nezamandan beri?" (since when?) sorusuna cevap veriyor. Yani,
burada szn ettiimiz zaman dilimi, yalnzca iinde yaadmz zaman dilimini deil, gemiten
gnmze sregelmi ve hala srmekte olan bir zaman dilimini kapsyor, ki bu da ngilizce'de the present
perfect continuous tense ile karlanr.
Genelde unu syleyebiliriz: "At two o'clock, yesterday, tomorrow, on Tuesday, in June, last year, next
year" gibi kavramlar o nl ezelden ebede uzanan zaman izgimiz zerindeki koordinatlar belli olan
noktalara iaret ediyorlar. Dolaysyla "perfect olmayan" tense'lerle kullanlrlar.

PERFECT TENSE'LER N DENEYM ALANLARIMIZ

24

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

a) Past perfect simple: Gemiteki bir noktann / dnemin ncesinde, zaman bilinmiyor; bilinse de
nemsenmiyor, veya belirtilmek istenmiyor... Ksacas, bu tense'in altn anahtar, "gemiteki bir noktann
yada dnemin ncesi"...
rdeleyiniz: Gne and Meltem ocukken birbirlerini tanyorlard; ama getiimiz yl zmir'de bir
otobste karlatklarnda, birbirlerini yaklak on yldr grmemilerdi. = Gne and Meltem knew each
other when they were children, but they hadn't seen each other for nearly ten years when they met on a
bus in zmir last year. Dikkat ederseniz, kendilerinin ocukluk dnemi bu tmcede sz edilen zaman
dilimleri arasndaki en eski dnem olmasna karn, bu durum tense seimlerimizi etkilemedi.
Sonunda diskoya ulatmzda, adamn daha nceden kp gittiini (= kp gitmi olduunu) rendik.
= When we finally got to the diskoteque, we found out that the man had already left.
Nianlmn bana bir Mersedes ald yetmibeinci ya gnme kadar hi Mersedes kullanmamtm! = I
had never driven a Mercedes before my seventy-fifth birthday when my fiance bought me one!
b) Past perfect continuous: Gemiteki bir nokta ncesinde bir dnem boyunca srm ve tamamlanm,
yada o noktaya dein sreklilik tam... O noktada da hala da sryor olmu olabilir...
rdeleyiniz: Gne uradnda, Ali iki saattir ayn problem zerinde alyordu. = When Gne called,
Ali had now been working on the same problem for two hours.
Sonunda kendisini ziyaret etmek frsatn bulduumda, Zeki Mren alt yldr Bodrum'da yayordu. =
Zeki Mren had been living in Bodrum for nearly six years when I finally had the chance to visit him.
Ankara'ya tanmadan nce bizleri muntazaman ziyaret ediyorlard. = They had been visiting us regularly
before they moved to Ankara.
c) Present perfect simple: inde yaadmz an itibariyle gemite, ama etkisi ve sonularn halen
yayoruz... Olayn zaman bilinmiyor; veya bilinse de nemsenmiyor, yahut belirtilmek istenmiyor. Her
durumda dikkat oda, olayn ne zaman gereklemi olduu deil; iinde bulunduumuz durum ile olan
balants... Olaya, imdiki zamanda etkisi ve sonular asndan bakyor, bunlar zerinde duruyoruz:
"Filmi ne zaman grdn?" sorusunun yant, "Ne zaman grdysem grdm; bu nemli deil. nemli
olan filmi grm olmam..."
rdeleyiniz: Hi imdiye dein bir Mersedes kullandnz m (veya, kullanm mydnz)? = Have you ever
driven a Mercedes before (= up until now)? Yani, bu tmce u anda nihayet bir Mersedesin
direksiyonundayz anlamna da gelebilir, yada bilgi almak iin sorulan bir soru da olabilir...
Odasn temizledi (= ve odas imdi tertemiz). = He has cleaned up his room.
d) Present perfect continuous: inde yaadmz an itibariyle gemiten gnmze dein sregelmi,
hal srmekte... Balang noktas biliniyor veya bilinmiyor olabilir. Ne zaman balam olduu nemli
deil; nemli olan, bir sredir sregelmi ve hala da sryor olmas... Nitekim, balang noktasn
belirtmek zorunda deilsiniz.
rdeleyiniz: Nekadar zamandr zmir'de yayorsunuz? = How long have you been living in zmir?
Bir sredir hasta. = He has been ill for some time now. "To be" fiili continuous formda kullanlmaz, ama
o anlam verir...

25

By dream_Catcher

O cami orada yzyllardr yklmadan ayakta duruyor. = That mosque has been standing there for
centuries.
e) Future perfect simple: Gelecekteki bir noktann / dnemin ncesinde gerekleecek -- ama ne zaman
olaca bilinmiyor yada nemsenmiyor, belirtilmek istenmiyor...
rdeleyiniz: Kitab bu hafta sonundan nce bitirmi olacam. = I will have finished the book by the end
of this week.
Grne baklrsa, eve dnmeden planlam olduumuzdan ok daha fazla para harcam olacaz. = By
the look of things, we will have spent a lot more money that we had planned -- before we get home.
f) Future perfect continuous: Gelecekteki bir noktann ncesinde balam, ama o noktaya dein sreklilik
tayor olmu olacak... Ne zaman balayacak olmas nemli deil. Hatta, u an itibariyle de balam
olabilir... nemli olan, gelecekteki o noktann bir sre ncesinde balam ve devam edegelmi, hala da
sryor olacak olmas...
rdeleyiniz: Yirmi yldr zmir'de oturuyoruz. Be yl sonra, burada yirmibe yldr oturuyor olmu
olacaz. = We have been living in zmir for twenty years. In five years' time, we will have been living
here for twenty-five years.

Egzersizlere gemeden, "simple" ve "continuous" tense farklar zerinde de nemle durmakta byk
yarar gryorum.

2 - "SIMPLE" ve "CONTINUOUS" KARDELER


yle fiiller vardr ki, bunlar doas gerei "anlk" (sregen olmayan) eylem ve durumlardan sz ederler.
teki gruba giren fiiller ise u yada bu lde "sreklilik tayan, sregenlik gsteren" eylem ve
durumlara ilikindir. Yani bunlarn, gerekleebilmek iin belli bir sreye gereksinimleri vardr.
"I watched TV at 9 o'clock last night," tmcesi yanltr; yanl tense ieriyor. Dorusu, "I was
watching..." nk "watch" fiili anlk bir eylem olarak deerlendirilemez. "Saat dokuzda" kavram,
"seyretmek, izlemek" eyleminin gerekleebilecei genilikte bir zaman dilimi iermiyor.
Olsa olsa, "Ekrana baktm = I looked at/on the screen at exactly 9 o'clock last night," diyebilirdiniz.
Yada, "I watched TV last night" olanakldr, nk drt saatlik zaman dilimi ieren "last night"
kavram eylemin gereklemesi iin yeterlidir.
te yandan, "I punched him on the face," doru bir anlatmdr: Yumruu aktm. "I was punching him..."
"srekli yumrukluyordum / yumruklardm" anlamnda kullanlabilir, ama "yavaaaa yumruu aktm"
gibi bir anlam iletemez.

Demek ki, ayn mevkiyi paylaan bir ift karde tense arasnda tercih lt yle tanmlanabilir:
Anlattmz eylem szn ettiimiz zaman dilimi iinde tamamlan -m, -makta, -acak mdr? (past present - future SIMPLE tense seenekleri)
Yoksa bu zaman dilimi iinde, ncesinden sonrasna bir ak, bir sreklilik mi sz konusudur? (past present - future CONTINUOUS tense seenekleri).
Soruyu yle de sorabiliriz: Szn ettiim eylem, szn ettiim zaman noktas / dilimi iinde
gerekleebilir mi? Olup, bitip, tamamlanabilir mi? Yoksa, olsa olsa, devam etmi, ediyor, edecek bir
durum mudur?
Ayrntlar zerinde Kitabmzn nc Blmnde, herbir tense bal altnda ayrca duracaz. Yalnz,
bir noktay imdiden vurgulamalym:
nk bu noktada mantkl bir soru yneltilecektir: Acaba ngilizce fiillerde ikili bir snflama m vardr?
Simple tense'lerde kullanlan anlk eylemler ve continuous tense'lerde kullanlan sregen eylemler gibi...
Hayr, byle bir snflama yaplamaz -- Hernekadar baz fiiller bu gruplardan birisine daha byk
yatknlk tarsa da, "anlk / sregenlik" belirlemesi her durumda farkl, greli bir deerlendirmenin
sonucudur. u rneklere baknz:
When we went out, the sun was shining. (Gne saatlerce parlayacaktr gkte. Oysa "dar kmak"
bilemediniz 20 saniye. GREL olarak anlk eylem...)
We met her on the stairs as we were going out. (Dar kmak yine 20 saniye, ama bu kez merdivendeki
karlama anlk eylemdir.)
Demek ki ingilizcenin gramerinde "to go out" fiilinin anlk yada sregen bir eylemi dile getirdii
sylenemez. Simple yada continuous tense kullanlmas her durum iin ayr ayr karar verilmesini
gerektiren GREL / ZAF / RLATF bir durumdur.
rnek vererek formle edelim: Ezamanl iki eylem, birbirlerinin zamann belirledikleri iin perfect
tense'lerde kullanlamaz; ve u kullanm olasl ortaya kar: rnein gemi zaman boyutunda -Simple past + simple past (ezamanl ve her ikisi de anlk eylem / durum)
When the phone rang, I jumped up. = Telefon alnca yerimden sradm.
Simple past + past continuous (ezamanl, ancak birisi srerken dieri anlk veya geici bir durum)
When the phone rang, I was having a bath. = Telefon aldnda, banyo yapmakta idim.
Past continuous + past continuous (ezamanl ve her ikisi de sregen)
While I was having a bath, my husband was washing the dishes. = Ben banyo yaparken kocam da
bulaklar ykyordu...

3 - PAST SIMPLE / PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE


a) The Present Perfect Simple Tense de gemiteki bir olaydan szeder = u ana kadar olan zaman
boyutu... Ama, olaya bak amz iinde bulunduumuz zamana yneliktir. Olayn imdiki zamandaki
etki ve sonular ile ilgileniyoruz. "I have seen that film" dediimiz zaman dikkat oda ne gn ve nasl
sinemaya gittiimiz, filmi izlerken neler hissettiimiz deildir. Gemie ilikin birey dnmyoruz.
Tam tersine, kendimize iliin u an asndan bilgi sunuyoruz, hatta gelecee ilikin ipucu veriyoruz:
"Ben o filmi grm durumdaym... Gzeldi, haydi bir daha gidelim... Veya, bir daha ekemem dorusu"
trnden bir bilgi...

Past Tense ise, ad stnde, gemite kalm, maziye karm, maziye mal olmu olaylardan szeder.
zler artk silinmi, koullar deimi olabilir. Anlattklarmz mazideki bir dneme ilikindir.
rnein, "She has cleaned the house," (Present Perfect Tense) dersem bunun anlam "Ve imdi ev
tertemiz" dir.
Oysa, "She cleaned the house," (Simple Past Tense) imdiki duruma ilikin byle bir ipucu vermiyor.
Nitekim, "I cleaned the house only this morning," gibi serzeni dolu bir tmce, durumun imdi ok farkl
olduunu apak sylyor. (= Evi daha bu sabah temizledim (temizlemitim), ama imdi u berbat haline
bak.)

b) Bir baka kesin ayrm lt ise, olayn nezaman olup bittiinin bilinip bilinmemesi, nemsenip
nemsenmemesi, dile getirilip getirilmemesidir. Kat kuralmz yle, olayn zaman bir biimde dikkat
odamzda yer alyorsa, hatta sorulmasa bile "mazideki belli bir dneme ilikin" olduu ima ediliyorsa
(rnein "I was born ..." tmcesi yerine "I have been born ..." mantk ddr) -- ite byle durumlarda past
tense kullanmak zorundasnz. Yada yle syleyelim: Zaman boyutundaki koordinatlara bir gnderim
varsa, bunlar belirtiliyor yada belli ise, perfect tense kullanamazsnz.
c) Gemiteki bir olaya ilikin yzyze konuma, ou zaman perfect tense kullanlan bir soru cevapla
balayp, sonra past tense olarak devam edecektir:
Q. Where have you been? (Nerelerdeydin?)
A. I've been to the movies. (Sinemaya gitmitim. = Gittim, geldim. imdi burdaym.)
Q. Well, did you enjoy it? (Nezaman? Tabii ki sinemada iken... Zaman artk belli)
A. Yes, it was a tremendous film.
Ksacas, yzyze etkileimde sz edilen olaylarn zaman boyutu abucak belirlenerek, konuma bundan
sonra past tense srdrlecektir. Perfect tense'lerin sanki konumada yazya gre daha az kullanldklar
izlenimi buradan douyor. Oysa bu konudaki kurallar kat ve deimezdir. Yapacanz tense
yanllarnn, Trkede "dn gideceim... yarn gittim..." demenizden bir fark olmaz.
d) Dolaysyla, aadaki tr bir gazete haberi olaandr:

kinci tmcede artk olayn zaman saptanmtr: "When?" sorusuna yant verebiliyoruz.
e) u arpc rnee ne dersiniz?
Have you seen the film at the Elhamra? (= Hala gsterimde, gidip grebilirsiniz)

f) Siz hi Kars'ta bulundunuz mu?
Bu soruyu Trke'de, "Siz hi Kars'a gittiniz mi?" eklinde ifade etmek de olanakldr. Yani, "gitmek"

nk, present perfect tense "gemiten bugne ve hal" kavramn ieriyor ve o balamda "gitmi
olmak" kavramn kullanamayz. Konutuumuz kii Kars'a gitmi (=gone to) ve hala orada deildir.
Kars'ta "bulunmu" (=been to) imdi dnm karmzdadr. Dolaysyla:
Q. Have you ever been to Kars?
A. Yes, I have (been to Kars)... veya, No, I have never been to Kars.
Peki, ya arkadanz size Kars'tan telefon etse ne diyecekti? "I have come to Kars" diyecekti. Yani, gelmi
bulunuyorum, halen buradaym.
Ama, nc bir kii Kars'a gitmi, halen oradaysa, o zaman u tmceyi kuracaksnz: "He has gone to
Kars." (= Gitti, halen orada)
g) u iki tmceyi karlatrnz:
1. I have seen my neighbour this morning.

4 - PRESENT PERFECT: "SIMPLE" VE "CONTINUOUS" KARILATIRMASI

31

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

a) Her iki seenekte de olay, "present" zamandaki etki ve sonular asndan alglanmakta,
deerlendirilmektedir. Dncemizde ekillenen zaman dilimi, gemi bir dnem deil, iinde
yaadmz zaman ve durumdur.
b) Temel ayrm ise udur: "Simple tense" seenei, eylemin/olayn u an itibaryla gemiteki bir noktada
tamamlanm olduunu dile getirir. (Hernekadar, kesin zamann bilmiyor, hatrlamyor, nemsemiyor,
yada sylemek istemiyorsak da). "Continuous tense" seenei ise, eylemin / olayn sregelmi ve (byk
olaslkla) halen de srmekte olduunu ifade eder.
c) te bu nedenle, "Bir filmi grm olmak" gibi bir durum ve kavram kolayca perfect simple tense
erevesinde yerini yuvasn bulur. nk "filmi gregelmi olmak" kavram geersizdir. Olsa olsa,
"pekok kereler grdm" diyebilirsiniz:
I have seen that film... I have seen it many times...
d) Bununla birlikte, dildeki pekok fiil, her iki tense erevesinde (ufak tefek nanslarla) temelde edeer
anlam verecektir:
I have been watching that program regularly... I have watched it regularly ever since it got started... gibi
tmceler sonuta ayn eyi sylyor = I watch it regularly.
e) Ne var ki, aadaki rneklerde "say" belirtilen durumlarda continuous tense kullanmnn olanaksz
olduuna dikkat ediniz:
I have written ten letters today. ("I have been writing ten letters..." = On mektubu birlikte yazageldim
eklinde geersiz bir anlatm olur. Ama, "I have been writing letters all day long" geerli)
He has done it many times in the past. / He has been doing it repeatedly all this time.
He has had five cups of tea since six o'clock. / He has been having cups and cups of tea since six o'clock.
= Saat altdan bu yana be bardak ay iti... Saat altdan bu yana bardak bardak ay iegeldi...
f) Continuous tense'lerde kullanlmayan fiiller szkonusu olduunda (have, own, be, see, hear, notice,
know, understand, love, vb.), anlamn sreklilik tad durumlar da dahil olmak zere, grevi "simple
tense" seenei stlenecektir: (Bu fiillerin ayrntl bir listesi iin, bknz. Blm 3'n hemen bandaki
"The Simple Present Tense" konusunu izleyen "DKKAT" maddesi.)
I have been here all the time.
This house has been empty for ages.
I have loved you ever since we first met. (=sevegeldim ve hal da seviyorum: Normalde Present Perfect

THE SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE

By dream_Catcher

1. Gemi/imdiki/gelecek zaman (=past/present/future) genelinde, yani aa be yukar trkedeki


GEN ZAMAN'da geerlik tayan, sren, yinelenen olay, durum ve eylemler:
The sun rises in the east... Not all clouds bring rain; some are signs of fine weather... A week has seven
days... Ali speaks English fluently. Gne plays the guitar... I sleep late on Sundays... How often do you
wash your hair?
Dikkat ederseniz, bu tmcelerin bir blm, Trke'de bizim "present continuous" ile de sylenebilir:
"Sanz ne sklkta ykyorsunuz? -- AMA, TRKE'DE -- NGLZCE'DE DEL!) Nitekim:
Do you like ice-cream? Do you love him? (stelik ikinci tmce, Trke'de "present simple" ve "present
continuous" arasnda anlam farkll tayor: "Onu sever misin?" "Onu seviyor musun?")
Do you read comics a lot?... I understand you dance well; do you sing a little, too? = ok izgi roman
okur musunuz? Anladm kadaryla iyi dansediyorsunuz; biraz ark da syleyebiliyor musunuz acaba?
(rnein, gazinoya bavuran bir sahne sanatsna byle sorulabilir)...
...gibi tmceleri ngilizce'de "present continuous" karlklar ile birlikte irdeleyiniz. Araladaki fark
besbellidir: Are you reading comics again? = Yine oturmu izgi roman m okuyorsun?... What is this
funny song you're singing is called? = Bu sylemekte olduun komik (= tuhaf, biimsiz) arknn ad ne?
2. Alkanlk, karakter, huy, i, meslek gerei, deimeyen, tekrarlanan davran ve eylemler: (Bu balk
altnda verdiimiz rnekler, yukardaki maddede verilenlerle ayn niteliktedir)
He leaves the house at eight... = (Sabahlar) evden sekizde kyor / kar... On a normal day, we stay in
and watch TV after supper... Don't worry; she keeps her word... (I sleep late on Sundays... How often do
you wash your hair?)
3. Doal olarak, "eyann tabiat" trnden belirlemelerde de hep bu tense kullanlacaktr: Szkonusu
durumun, genel geerlik tayp tamadna bakacaz. (inde bulunduumuz an itibariyle
varl/yokluu nemli deil.)
Dogs bark... Birds fly... Fish swim... All cats love milk...
Bu rnekleri, "Listen, the dogs are barking... The ones I saw were flying south... Why are some of the fish
in your tank standing still while others are swimming about?" trnden bildirimler ile karlatrnz.
Aralarndaki fark apak grlebiliyor. = Kpekler havlar... Dinle bak, kpekler havlyor... Birincisi:
Simple Present; ikincisi: Present Continuous...
4. Bilimsel belirlemeler (Pek tabii!! Bilimsel belirlemelerin genel geerlii olmasn bekleriz):
Water consists of hydrogen and oxygen.
Nimbus clouds are very dark clouds that you see when there is a huge downpour. They bring lots of rain.
[downpour = ya, yamurun "aa boanmas"]
5. Ataszlerinin byk blm:
The pot calls the kettle black. ("Tencere dibin kara." "Seninki benimkinden kara...")
Every cock crows on his own dunghill. (Her horoz kendi tezek ynnda ter.)

God helps those who help themselves. (Deveni nce aaca bala; sonra Allah'a emanet et... yada belki,
Kurda sormular neden boynun kaln; kendi iimi kendim grrm demi... -- ikisi de tam tutmuyor ama!)
6. Kitaplar, duyuru metinleri, veya yakn zamanda alnm mektuplardan sz ederken. (Trkede ise
kimi zaman "present continuous" tense kullanldna dikkat ediniz) :
The author says that a solution cannot be provided under the present conditions and goes on to explain the
reasons for his conviction.
"What does the notice say?" "It says, 'No Parking Here'."
"I see that you've got a letter from Gne. What does he say?" "He says..." (Diyor ki...)
It repeatedly says in the Koran that we must be fair and kind to people of all races. (Der ki...)
7. Tarihten sz ederken:
Atatrk decides to proclaim the Republic on the following day. Indeed, the voting on October 29, 1923 is
unanimous (= ittifakla) and the country becomes a democratic republic. However, there still exists a big
problem: how to get rid of the Caliph (= Halife) who is still residing in stanbul...
8. Gazete balklarnda "past tense" yerine kullanlr:
Foreign Debts Reach A Record Level = D Borlar Rekor Dzeye Eriti.
Two Men Die In A Lorry Crash = Kamyon Kazasnda ki Kii ld.
Galatasaray Beats Milan = Galatasaray Milan' Yendi.
9. Tiyatro eserlerinde diyaloglar arasnda verilen sahneleme nerilerinde:
When the curtain rises, there are two servants entering from the door on the right. The phone rings, and
they both make an attempt to reach out for it first...
10. Gnlk dilde, zellikle de bizim "mahalle geyii" diye adlandrlacak konuma ortamlarnda olaylar
dostlara anlatlr, dedikodu yaplr, dertleilirken:
I give her what she wants and she goes away. I say to myself, (=hatta, "I says to myself"!) "Good
riddance; I hope I've seen the last of her." But, not a week passes, and I come home one night, and just
guess who is sitting on my very doorstep... [Good riddance; I hope I've seen the last of her. = Oh, be!
Kurtuldum. Umarm bir daha suratn grmem.]
11. rnein gezi programlar gibi, gelecek gnlere dnk planlanm eylemler:
We leave Ankara at 10:00 on Saturday and arrive at Nevehir at 14:00. We spend two hours shopping,
and then leave for the Greme Valley.
12. Ve asla unutmamanz gereken bir nokta: Temel-tmcelik herhangi bir "future tense" olduunda,
zaman belirten bal-tmcelik bir "present tense" olmak zorundadr: (Tabii, "Present Simple" olmak
zorunda deil)
We'll leave when you are ready.

Shall we set out as soon as he comes back?


They won't be leaving until they've finished the job. (Bu sonuncu rnei, herhangi bir present tense
kullanlabileceini rneklemek iin ekledim)

DKKAT... DKKAT...
ngilizce'de kimi fiiller (bazlar yalnzca belli anlamlarnda olmak zere) continuous tense'lerde
kullanlamaz. Dolaysyle bu fiiller, sreklilik anlattklar bir konumda dahi, simple tense ile ifade
edilecektir. nce bunlar sralayalm, sonra da rnekler verelim (Bu fiilleri mutlaka renmelisiniz -listeyi ezberlemenizde yarar var. Aadaki gruplamay, yalnzca okuma kolayl asndan yaptm):

be (aktif atda), have, own, possess,


see, hear, notice, recognize, believe, disbelieve, feel, think (think = sanmak, kansnda olmak -"dnmek" anlamnda ise continuous tenselerde kullanlabilir), consider (=saymak, addetmek -- oysa
"dnmek, kafasnda evirip evirmek" kavram ise tpk "think" gibi continuous alabilir),
know, understand, realize (=anlamak, kafasna dank etmek), notice, suppose, remember, recall
(=hatrlamak), recollect (=hatrlamak. Eer, "re-collect" eklinde yazar veya okursanz = yeniden
toplamak, biraraya getirmek anlamna gelir ve continuous tense'te kullanlabilir),
mean, matter, gather (=sonu karsamak), hope, expect (=ummak), find (=yle "bulmak", o gzle
grmek: "I find the subject rather disgusting."),
want, wish, need, admire, love, like, desire (=arzulamak), adore (=taparca sevmek), doubt (=phe
etmek), dislike, hate, loathe (=nefret etmek), trust (=gvenmek), distrust (=gvenmemek), despise
(=irenmek, aalamak), care (=sevmek, holanmak, nemli bulmak, aldrmazlk etmemek), object to
(=kar kmak),
forget, forgive, agree, prefer, refuse, dare (=cesaret etmek), deserve (=hak etmek), differ (=farkl olmak),
smell (=kokmak, yani "koklamak" deil), taste (=tadnda olmak, ...tadn vermek. Yani, tadna bakmak,
anlamnda deil: "I am now tasting it -- it tastes beautiful."),
seem, appear, look (=grnmek, gibi grnmek), resemble (=benzemek),
belong to, contain, consist of...
continue, cost, suit (=uygun olmak, yakmak: "This hair style suits you best.")...

Kukusuz, uzun ve rktc bir liste... Ama, bu grup fiilin tad zellii nekadar vurgulasak azdr.
Grdnz zere, ngilizce'de en sk kullanlan fiiller arasnda yer alyorlar. Daha da nemlisi, bunlarla

kurulan tmceleri, Trke'de genellikle "continuous" edeeri ile karlarz. Dolaysyla da hata riskimiz
ok yksek. rnein, aadaki Trke tmcelerin ngilizce karlna bakarsak, konuyu daha iyi
kavrarz. Dikkat ediniz: Bunlar Trke'de "continuous"; ngilizce'de ise "simple tense" olurlar:
Seni seviyorum (= I love you)... Senin iin deli oluyorum (= I am crazy about you)... Seni anlyorum,
sevgilim, tamamen anlyorum (= I understand you, sweetheart; I do understand you)... Seni istiyorum,
sana ihtiya duyuyorum (= I want you. I need you)... Sen bana aitsin! (You belong to me!)... Beni scak
tutacak akm var (=I have my love to keep me warm)...
Uzakta atl gryorum (= I see three horsemen in the distance)... Kukulu bireyler gryor musun /
farkediyor musun? (= Do you see / notice anything suspicious?) Tuhaf bir ses/grlt iitiyor musun? (=
Do you hear a funny noise?)...
What is it that you're cooking? It smells awful (= berbat kokuyor)... It tastes funny (= garip bir tad var)...
It seems OK now... You look great... It appears strange to me that you should not remember it (=
Unutmu olman bana tuhaf grnyor)...
I forgive you (= seni affediyorum)... I refuse to do it! (= Bunu yapmay reddediyorum!)... I loathe him (=
ondan nefret ediyorum, tiksiniyorum)... I hate you! ( Senden nefret ediyorum!...)
DKKAT... DKKAT...
Bu fiillerden bir blmnn deiik anlamla "continuous tense"lerde de kullanlabileceine tekrar
dikkatinizi ekerim:
"What are you thinking of?" "I'm thinking about tomorrow's exam." (= dnmek)
I am honestly considering getting married. (= dnyorum, kafamda evirip eviriyorum)
She is having breakfast at the moment... She isn't having her milk... (= yemek, imek)
"Are you seeing him?"... "Is she still seeing him?" (= grmek, bulumak)
Kimi zaman da bu fiiller iin "continuous tense" kullanlarak anlama deiik vurgular kazandrldna
tank oluruz. Bu rnekleri "idiomatik" kullanmlar olarak deerlendirip not etmenizde yarar var:
You are just being plain silly now! (= Amaan sen de budalalk ediyorsun yani imdi!..)
You're being very stupid about it. (= Bu konuda aptallk ediyorsun...Yine yukardaki gibi, tepkili bir
anlatm.)
Young man, aren't you forgetting your manners? (= Delikanl, terbiyeni unutuyorsun sanrm...)
Hey, you're imagining things! (= Hayal gryorsun, bunlar kafanda kuruyorsun sen. Byle bir ey yok!)

THE SIMPLE PAST TENSE


01 Gemi zaman boyutunda belli bir noktada yada dnemde olmu bitmi durum ve eylemler. Olay
artk "mazide" kalm, maziye karm, mazinin bir paras olmutur: (Ayrca, bknz. aada Madde 03)
I met him at a party last week. I haven't seen him since. (= geen hafta tantm; o gnden bu gne
grmedim)
We received two phone calls yesterday; we haven't had any so far today. (= dn... ama bugn iin "u ana
dein" anlamnda present perfect kullandk)
I once went out with a famous film star; he talked about himself all through the evening. (gemite bir
keresinde...)
The suspect was last seen in that neighbourhood two days ago. (Zanl o semtte en son iki gn nce
grld. -- Trke'de "grlmt" de deriz. DKKAT: "was seen": simple past passive)
Not very many people lived in these parts in the past. (Ama, Trke'ye "yaamazd / yaamyordu"
eklinde "continuous" ile eviririz = Eskiden buralarda pek kimse yaamyordu...)
Aslnda bu sonuncu rnekte, ngilizce'de de "were living" deseniz kyamet kopmaz, ama "simple
kardein" yeterli olduu ve anlamca sreklilik olgusunu karlad durumlarda bununla yetiniriz.
Biliyorsunuz, "continuous karde" kullanm iin nart, sz edilen eylemin sz edilen zaman dilimine
smayacak olmas... Oysa burada "in the past" ile belirtilen zaman dilimi, "to live" eyleminin
gerekleebilecei bir uzunluk ieriyor. Bu bakmdan, "simple karde" ile yetinilmesi nplanda.
02 Present Perfect Tense'ten farkl olarak, zaman boyutunda belli bir nokta yada dnem dikkat odana
getirildii iin, "Ne zaman?" sorularyla kullanlmas doaldr:
When did you last see him? What time did you have lunch?
03 Yada, dorudan zaman belirtilmese bile, gemie ilikin olduu bilinen veya besbelli olan olay,
durum, eylemler... Yani, her kurduumuz tmcede bir gemi zaman belirteci kullanmak zorunda deiliz:
How did you get your present job? (=Karmzdaki kimsenin belli bir ite almakta olduunu
gryoruz/biliyoruz. Dolaysyla gemite belli bir tarihte bu ie girmiti)
I bought this thing in stanbul. (Diyelim ki konuma zmir'de gemektedir; seyahatten dnmz...)
I was born in stanbul... (Simple Past Passive = "dnyaya getirildim / getirilmiim" -- Trke'de ise
"domak" aktif fiilinin, "dodum" veya "domuum" eklindeki ekimlerini kullanyoruz.)

04 Bir nceki blmde The Present Perfect Tense ile karlatrrken deindiimiz gibi, diyelim ki "this

lene kadar u ekilde olan tmceler:
"I've had a huge breakfast... I have bumped into my funny neighbours again this morning" (Bu sabah yine
o garip komularmza rastladm.)
leden sonra ve akama ise u ekillere dnecektir:
"I had a huge breakfast... I bumped into..." (= rastladm)
Hatta, akam saatlerinde, "I had a huge breakfast today," tmcesini kurmanz da ok daha doaldr:
nk kahvalt saati, ayn gn iinde olsa bile, artk bariz ekilde gerilerde kalmtr.
05 Sz edilen olay, durum yada eylem, present perfect tense ile balayan bir soru-cevap sonras zaman
belirginlii kazanm olabilir. Konuma o noktadan balayarak past tense boyutunda srdrlr.
(Snavlarda sk rastlanan bir soru trdr):
"Where have you been?" "I've been to the pictures." "Well, did you enjoy the film?" "Yes, I enjoyed it
very much."
06 Gemi bir dnemde srekli veya aralklarla yinelenmi durum, eylem, alkanlklar (= used to +

Whenever it snowed, he wore a hat. (= used to wear -- Hernezaman kar yasa, hep apka giyerdi.)
Wherever he went abroad, he took his son with him. (Yurtdna hernereye gitse, olunu da hep yannda
gtrrd / gtryordu.)
They never drank wine. (= imezlerdi)
When we were in Bodrum, we always went for a walk in the evening. (= giderdik, gidiyorduk)
In Heybeli, every night we went on the sea in the moonlight... Biz Heybeli'de her gece mehtaba
kardk...
Bu tr tmcelerde ou zaman ever/never/always gibi geni zaman belirteleri kullanlr. evirilerde ise,
"giyer/imeyiz/gideriz" szcklerinin past tense dnm olan "giyerdi/imezdik/giderdik" kullanmlar
uygun olur.
Bu tr tmcelerde, "used to" ve daha seyrek olmak zere "would" kalplarnn kullanlabileceine dikkat
ediniz. (zellikle bu ikincisine DKKAT: ou zaman yanl deerlendiriliyor; deerlendirmekte glk
ekiliyor.)
We met almost every other day. = We used to meet every other day. = We would meet every other day.
(= Hemen her iki gnde bir buluurduk)
She would stand at the door and wave me goodbye... (= Kapda durur bana el sallard.)
He went to mosque for prayers every Friday of his life... He would go to mosque for prayers every
Friday... (Tabii, bu tmcelerden ayrca, Muhteremin artk dnyasn deitirmi olduunu da anlyoruz.)

THE PAST CONTINUOUS TENSE


01 Gemite belli bir noktada yada dnemde sreklilik tam durum ve eylemler. Olayn balang
yada bitim noktalar ilgi oda deildir ve belirtilme zorunluu tamaz. Doal olarak, sz edilen zaman
dilimine smayacak, daha nce balam ve o dnemde devam etmi durumlar iin de bu tense
kullanlacaktr.
When I saw him, he was standing outside the building.
I was watching TV when you called me last night. What were you doing at the time? (Sen o srada ne
yapyordun?)
It was raining when we came out of the building.
At the time the economic slump became quite apparent, we were running a souvenir shop in Bodrum. (=a
gift shop... Ekonomik knt belirgin hale geldiinde, Bodrum'da bir hediyelik eya dkkan
iletmekteydik...)
02 Gemite iki zaman noktas arasnda veya belli bir sre / dnem boyunca sregitmi durum ve
eylemler:
All through his last years, he was collecting specimens for his projected book.
I was working all day yesterday. (Simple past tense de olanakl, ama burada "sreklilik" kavramn
zellikle vurguluyoruz -- Aadaki rnei de irdeleyiniz:)
What were you doing yesterday? = Dn btn gn boyunca nerelerdeydin, neler yapyordun? (Oysa,
What did you do yesterday? tmcesi bununla edeer olabilecei gibi, konuya gre rnein, "zerinde
altmz projede dn neler yaptn / yaptnz, nasl bir ilerleme kaydettin / kaydettiniz?" gibi nanslar
da verecektir.)
Between 1993 and 1998, we were living in Antalya. (Simple past tense de olanakl, nk "to live"
durumunun gerekleebilecei uzunlukta bir dnemden sz ediyoruz.)
03 Geni zaman belirteleriyle birlikte, gemite sk yinelenen ve zellikle de konumacnn
onaylamad anlalan durum ve davranlar:
He was always criticising whatever I did! = Ne yapsam hep eletiriyordu...
She was constantly making mistakes. = Durmadan hatalar yapyordu...
04 Ancak, byle bir vurgulama olmakszn da ayn ilevle kullanlabilir, ki bu ilevi The Simple Past
Tense iin Madde 6'da verdiimiz aklama ile edeerdir:

Whenever I called on him, he was working. (= would be working) (Her nezaman urasam, hep alyor
bulurdum / buluyordum)
From 8 to 11 o'clock, I was studying in the library. (Bu tmce, "O gn saat 8-11 aras ktphanede
alyordum" veya "O dnemde her gn 8-11 aras ktphanede alrdm / alyordum" anlamlarnda
kullanlabilir."would be studying" ise kesinlikle ikinci anlam verecektir.
05 Aslnda gelecee dnk olup, ou zaman gereklememi, vazgeilmi yada artk gereklemeyecek
niyet ve planlar. Burada, "future in the past" kavram nplana kyor:
He was preparing his suitcases, for he was leaving that night. (= nk o akam gidiyordu/gidecekti)
I was going to play football tomorrow, but I won't be able to do that now; because I've injured my leg.
(Yarn top oynayacaktm; ama bu artk gereklemeyecek; nk bacam incitmi bulunuyorum)
I was going to buy myself a new umbrella, but I have now given up the idea. (Kendime yeni bir emsiye
alacaktm, ama vazgemi bulunuyorum)
06 Ayn "future in the past" kavram "dolayl anlatm" (= reported speech, indirect speech) kurallar ile
de desteklenir:
He said (that) he was preparing his suitcases, adding (that) he was leaving that night. (Burada, o gn
iitmi olduumuz gerek szleri -- yani, "I am preparing my suitcases, for I am leaving tonight" -eklindeki szleri, sonradan baka bir kimseye "reported speech" eklinde aktaryoruz)

THE SIMPLE FUTURE TENSE


ngilizce dil-kltr dizgesi genelinde, "Simple Future" kavram ve eleri ile ilgili baz ayrntlar burada
gzden geirmek zorundayz:
"SHALL" LD M ?!
Bu sorunun yant, tpk "Erkeklik ld m?" sorusuna verilecek yant gibi, kocaman bir HAYIR... Ama,
kimi zel kullanmlar dnda (zellikle de Amerikan ngilizcesinde) "can ekiiyor" diyebilirsiniz...
Yani tpk, "erkeklik" gibi !!
01 Amerikan ngilizcesi iin "shall" btnyle l bir szcktr savn savunanlar kacaktr. Bunlarn
daha insafl bir blm, "baz idiomatik kullanmlar dnda" diye ekleyeceklerdir. rnekse: Amerikan
kiliselerinde de Tevrat (the Old Testament) 'taki on emirin her birisi "Thou shalt not..." =Yapmayacaksn
(you shall not) diye balyor...
02 Klasik gramere gre, birinci tekil ve oul kiiler iin "shall", dier kiiler iin "will" kullanlmas
doru ve yerindedir. Oysa gnmzde bunun geerliini byk lde yitirmi olduu kolaylkla

gzlemleniyor. Daha geerli istatistiksel bir saptama, btn kiiler iin "will" yardmc fiilinin tercih
ediliyor olmasdr.
03 Yabanc dil renirken ne hayal krklklar yaarz! Balang dzeyinde "kural" olarak
retilenlerin, daha ileri dzeylerde ise nasl tepe tepe ineneceini reniriz!... "Beklenmedik"
kullanmlar, genelde vurgulu anlatmlar iletirler.
Eskilerde, "shall/will" ikilisinin egemen olduu dnem boyunca, "shall" yerine "will" kullanm, yada
bunun tam tersi, birer "beklenmedik" vurgulu anlatm rnei saylmtr.
Ama zaman boyutunda masalar tersine dnd...
04 Gnmzde, "will" btn kiiler iin standart kullanm sayldna gre, "shall" kullanmnn
vurgulu anlatm tarz olduunu gryoruz. Yani, "I shall go" bir zamanlar olaan, "I will go" ise vurgulu
iken, imdi masalar tersine dnm, "I shall go" vurgulu anlatm nitelii kazanmtr. Ne dersiniz, ok
kark bir durum, yle deil mi?...
Benim de aralarnda bulunduum, bastra bastra vurgulu konumay seven bir grup insan, genel
ortalamann stnde "shall" kullanmaa devam edeceiz -- yle anlalyor...
Kesenkes WILL'cilerin bile itiraf etmek zorunda kalaca gibi, "shall" ile kurulan kalplar birok nemli
idiomatik ilevi de karlyor. rnekse: Teklif ve nerilerin aktarlmasndaki standart kullanmlardr:
Shall we go home now? (= Let's go home now) (Yantlar: "Yes, let's" veya "No, let's not")
The telephone is ringing. Will you answer it, or shall I answer it?
Yukardaki rneklerde "shall" yerine "will" kullanrsanz, soruyu sanki nnde kristal kresi olan bir
falcya soruyorsunuz anlamna gelecektir: "Bil bakalm, eve gidecek miyiz? Bil bakalm, telefona cevap
verecek miyim !!!..."

05 Be going to + yaln mastar


Bu yapnn ngilizce'deki en yaygn simple future anlatm olduu kolaylkla savunulabilir. Yakn gelecek
iin kararlatrlm, planlanm eylemler iin olaandr. ou zaman, hazrlklarn imdiden balatlm
olduunu dile getirecektir. Ayrca, tahmin ve kehanet bildirimleri iin de kullanlabilir:
I'm going to meet him at six.
I'm now going to read you some of my own poems.
I'm going to be a doctor when I grow up. (Temel-tmcelik herhangi bir future tense olduunda, zaman
bildiren bal tmcelik bir present tense olur kuraln umarm unutmadnz)
Look at those clouds. I think it's going to rain soon.
NEML NOT: Gramercilerin byk blm olmadk kurallar icat etmekte ok hnerlidir. "Be going to"
yapsna ilikin olarak ou kitapta u notu dtklerini grrsnz: "Bu yap, go fiili ile ender kullanlr.
Come fiili ile hi iitilmez..." Merak edip, Google'dan baktm: "going to come" tam 447 000 kez

kullanlm (27.9.2003)!!... ("Where are the funds going to come from?... When is Harry Potter going to
come out of that closet?...)
Yine de, ii basitletirmek iin, aadaki tercihleri yapmakta yarar var:
I'm going to go to stanbul tonight. -------- I'm going to stanbul tonight.
I'm going to come home tonight. -------- I'm coming home tonight.
06 Gerek "simple" gerekse "continuous" present tense -- uygun zaman belirteleri alarak -- future tense
anlam iletebilir:
I'm leaving tonight... The ship leaves tonight... What are you doing tomorrow night?...
07 To be + mastar
Bu yapnn sanldndan ok daha ilek ve yaygn bir kullanm alan olduunu grrz. Basit gelecek
zaman anlamnda kullanlabildii gibi, ayrca zorunluluk nans da aktarabilir. zellikle de, nc
kiilerin emir ve direktiflerinin aktarlmasnda grev yapar:
The ship is to arrive tomorrow night. Gemi yarn akam geliyor (=gelecek, gelmi olacak...)
She is to start school soon. Yaknda okula balayacak.
Get out of here! You are never to come back to this house again! Defol buradan ve bir daha da bu eve
sakn dnme! (Birinci elden emir, direktif)
You are to go and see the boss this afternoon. Bugn leden sonra gidip patronu greceksin. (Byk
olaslkla, patron bana "Git o adama syle, leden sonra gelip beni grsn" demi...)
08 To be about + mastar
To be on the point of + gerund
You can't see him now. He's about to leave. (kmak zere...)
I couldn't talk to him; he was on the point of leaving. (=future in the past: kmak zereydi...)
09 Kavramsal olarak gelecek zamana iaret eden pekok kalp vardr. rnekler:
It's a very good film. It's (very) likely to win the first prize.. (To be + likely + mastar = ok muhtemel)
It isn't likely to rain. = It's unlikely to rain. (To be + unlikely + mastar)
If you put in just a little bit more effort, You are sure (certain) to finish it on time. (To be + sure / certain
+ mastar)

THE FUTURE CONTINUOUS TENSE


01 Gelecekteki belli bir noktada yada dnemde srmekte olacak durum ve eylemler... Bu anlatmda,
eylemin balang ve bitim noktalar bilinmemekte yada nemsenmemektedir (ama, bknz. Madde 02):
I will be sitting an exam at this time tomorrow... At that hour, Ali will still be sleeping... I'll be waiting for
you at the bus-stop at nine o'clock sharp... ("to sit an exam" doru bir kalptr. Dilerseniz, "to take an
exam" kalbn da kullanabilirsiniz. Her ikisi de "bir snava girmek"...)
02 Gelecekteki belli iki zaman noktas arasnda, yada belli bir sre dahilinde sregidecek, sreklilik
tayacak durum ve eylemler:
Between 3 and 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, I'll be studying in the library.
I will / shall be cramming for the finals all day through tomorrow. (cramming =studying, working; ancak
burada "normal" bir almann tesinde biraz da "ineklemek" kavram vardr)
NEML NOT: Yukarda, The Past Continuous Tense iin Madde 2'de yaptmz kavramsal aklama
burada da geerlidir. yle ki:
What will you be doing all day tomorrow? tmcesi "btn gn boyunca" eklindeki sreklilik kavramn
nplana karr ve hatta "Btn gn bo mu oturacaksn?" gibi bir nans ekleyebilirken, What will you do
tomorrow? tmcesi ise "Yarn neler yapacaksn? Planlarnda neler var?"... sorusunu iletecektir.
03 Tahminler, yordamalar, tasarlar:
It'll be getting dark soon. (Bu tmcenin "It will get dark soon" tmcesinden ne fark var diye soracak
olursanz, Trkedeki "ok gemeden hava kararmakta olacak" ve "ok gemeden hava kararacak"
arasndaki fark irdeleyiniz. Unutmaynz, havann kararmas dereceli bir durumdur)
She'll be coming back soon... ("She will come back soon" daha bir kesinlik tayacaktr)
After the meal, we'll be having some coffee. ("We'll have some coffee" tmcesinde dikkat oda "baka
birey deil -- kahve ieceiz" zerine younlarken, burada ise daha "leisurely" bir "oturup konuma,
sohbet" imas var)
04 Nazik bir soru ifadesi olarak:
Where will you be staying?
Will you be visiting us again?
GENEL NOT: Grdnz gibi, ngilizce'nin "perfect olmayan continuous" tense'leri ile Trke'deki
karlklar arasnda yksek bir benzerlik, be aa be yukar bir edeerlik var. Ama, teki tense'lerde
(hele, Trke'de karl olmayp da, genellikle zaman belirteleri kullanarak karlayabildiimiz "perfect
tense"lerde) bu uyumu aramak bouna olur...

GELELM "PERFECT" TENSE'LERE !!!

THE PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE TENSE


01 Gemi zaman boyutunda, konumu belli olmayan, hatrlamadmz, nemsemediimiz yada
herhangi bir nedenle belirtmek istemediimiz bir noktada yada dnemde gereklemi ve tamamlanm,
ancak sonular ve etkisi bakmndan imdiki zaman ilgilendiren olay, durum ve eylemler:
Hey! We've seen this film before. Was it last year? Do you remember? (rnek durum: TV'de bir filim
balad; filmi daha nce de gstermi olduklarn ve seyretmi olduunuzu farkettiniz. Kullanacanz
tmce budur. nemli olan nokta, filmi grm olmanzdr. Arkasndan doal olarak, "It was a very good
film; definitely worth watching... Let's watch it again," veya "Oh, I remember it was awful; I can't really
put up with it for a second time" eklinde bir ifade gelecektir.)
She has cleaned the house from top to bottom; it's very clean and tidy now. (= "Dolaysyla, ev imdi
tertemiz," demektir)
I have read the instructions on the packet, but I still haven't a clue about what it is supposed to do.
(Tabiatyla, burada "kullanma talimatn dakika nce, be dakika nce okudum" eklinde bir zaman
belirtmesine gerek duymuyoruz. Sadece, "Okudum, ama anlamadm / anlamyorum" deniliyor... "Have't a
clue about" = en kk bir fikrim yok, demektir.)
I have lost my keys. How am I going to get into the office now? (Anahtarlarm nezaman, saat kata
kaybettiimi bilseydim, kaybettiim yeri de bilirdim. Ksacas, kaybetmemi olurdum!)
Have you ever seen a true Angora cat? (= bugne dein; hayatnzda hi...)
Where have you been since Monday? (Pazartesiden bugne nerelerdeydin?)
02 Trke gramerde yer almayan bu farkl bak asnn evirisi glkler gsterir. Anlam "nasl denk
getirirsek" yle aktarmamz nerilebilir:
I have seen that film = grdm / grm bulunuyorum / grm durumdaym. (=Ben, u anda, o filmi
grm birisi olarak karnzdaym)
I have already met him. = Kendisiyle tantm / tanm bulunuyorum / zaten tantm / daha imdiden
tanm bulunuyorum / durumdaym...
03 Halen srmekte olan, yaamakta olduumuz dnem yada zaman dilimi iinde gereklemi
olaylardan sz ederken:
Have you seen her today?
leye kadar: Have you seen her this morning?
leden sonra: Did you see her this morning?
50

joshua.ranad@gmail.com

Have you seen her this week? (Hala bu haftann iindeyiz).


Automotive industries have undergone a great deal of change this year. (Bu yl daha bitmedi, sryor)
There have been no major wars so far in this century... (= iinde bulunduumuz yzylda bugne dein)
Ama, yln ilerleyen aylarnda: "Automotive industries underwent a great deal of change in the beginning
of this year." demek zorundayz -- nk, "bu yl" hala iinde yaadmz "present" bir zamandr; ama
"yln balangc" artk gerilerde braktmz bir dnemdir.
04 Bu Blmn banda The Simple Present Tense ile ilgili olarak nemle zerinde durduumuz,
continuous tense'lerde kullanlmayan fiiller... Burada da, (anlamn sreklilik tamasna karn) grevi
"continuous" karde yerine "simple" karde stlenecektir:
I have been here all the time.
This house has been empty for ages.
I have loved you ever since we first met. (=sevegeldim ve hala da seviyorum: Normalde Present Perfect
Continuous ile anlatlmas gereken bu ve yukardaki kavramlar, ilgili fiillerin zelliinden dolay Simple
karde tense ile ifade ediliyor)
05 Ayn ekilde, "always... ever since..." gibi sreklilik bildiren zaman belirteleriyle de continuous
anlam verir:
I have always walked to work. (ime hep yrmmdr, hala da yryerek geliyorum/gidiyorum...
Oysa, "I have walked to work today" = Bugn ie yryerek geldim/gittim)
06 "Az nce" tamamlanm, bitmi eylemler iin de kullanldn grrz: (Bunun en tipik rnekleri
"just" ile birlikte kurulan tmcelerdir ve aada ayrca ele alnmaktadr)
Look what you've done! = Grdn m ne yaptn! u yaptn eye bak!
Ama bir dakika bile nce olsa, eer bir zaman belirtiyorsanz, tmcenizi "simple past" olarak dzenlemek
zorundasnz: She completed it a minute ago...
07 "Have to" yerine daha kuvvetli, pekitirilmi biimi olan "have got to" eitliinin ise burada deil,
"Yardmc filler" bal altnda ele alnmas gerekir. "I've got to go now..." tmcesi, "perfect" deil,
dorudan "simple present" bir tmcedir.
08 "Gemiten ...bugne" kavramn ieren "zamana present perfect bak as" iin tipik olan ve sk
kullanlan zaman belirtelerinden bazlar unlardr:
up to now, up till now, till now, up to the present, so far, as yet (buraya kadar olan kalplar = imdiye
dein, u ana dein, demektir); finally, recently, lately, during the past few years, for the last two years,
often, many times, already, yet, just, ever, never, for, since, ever since...
Aadaki rneklerde greceiniz gibi, bunlarn byk blm teki btn perfect tense'ler ile de ayn
sklkta kullanlabilir. (NEML NOT: past ve future perfect iin: now ----- then, ve past/last -----
previous dnmleri gerekli olacaktr.)
51

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

since -- for :
"since" = gemiteki belli bir nokta yada dnemden bu yana... "ever since" ise, sreklilik kavramn
pekitirir. Yani, sevgilinize "I have loved you ever since the moment I first saw you" demeniz,
yanaklarn daha pembeletirecektir... (Aadaki rneklerde, gerektii yerlerde "continuous" kardee
yada teki perfect tense'lere de grev verilmitir.)
We have been living in zmir since 1982.
They have been playing cards since 2 o'clock.
I have been frightened of the dark ever since I was a child.
"for" = (anlan) sredir... (anlan) sre boyunca: " gndr... bir aydr... bir yl akn zamandr"... gibi
I haven't seen you for more than a month.
I haven't seen her for ages. (=ok uzun bir sredir)
We haven't been living in that house for the last two years.
just : = az nce, demin, ok ksa bir sre nce:
I've just finished the housework; I'll be there in a minute.
When we got there, he had just finished talking about the subject in general and was proceeding to show
some special slides. (= baz zel diyalar gstermee geiyordu... Past perfect ile rnekledim.)
I have just now finished uploading my new website and I have started preparing the promotional material.
(= Yeni sitemi yklemeyi az nce bitirdim ve...)
Ne var ki, bu ilev konuma dili ve zellikle de Amerikan ngilizce'sinde giderek daha byk lde The
Simple Past Tense'e ile ykleniyor grnyor: "I just now finished..." Baka bir rnek: "I just told you..."
Herhalde en az "I've just told you" kadar yaygn...Yine de snavlarda "eski usl" den amayn, derim.
Snavlar klasik grameri sever...
already -- yet :
Trke'ye birincisini "zaten... daha imdiden...m bulunuyor", ikincisini ise "henz...daha..." eklinde
farkl szcklerle aktaryorsak da, aslnda bunlar ayn kavramn iki deiik yz olup: Birincisi olumlu
tmcelerde; kincisi de olumsuzlarda ve sorularda kullanlr (some/any ikilisini artrnz).
Ne var ki, already szcnn de sorularda kullanlabilecei durumlarla karlaabiliriz. ("Would you like
some more tea?" sorusunu artrnz. Orada da, "cevabnz olumlu olsun" dileimizi yanstm
oluyoruz. "Do you want any tea?" aile iinde geerli olursa da, misafire "istiyor musun, istemiyor
musun?" nans ile ok ayp olur):
a. Yantn "evet" olacan tahmin ettiimiz durumlar:
Has he already left? Has he gone already?... gibi sorular, bilgi almak iin dz bir soru olmaktan ok,
"km (gitmi) galiba, yle deil mi?" trnden bir yorum ve beklenti tarlar.

b. aknlk, yada benzeri bir duygu younluu ifade edebilir, ki yine bir sorudan ok, yorum iermekte
olacaktr:
What! Has he already left? (Ayn tmce, konuma dilinde dz tmce olarak, fakat soru tonlamas ile de
kurulabilir: "What! He has already left?")
ever -- never :
Trke'deki "Siz hi hayatnzda ...?" sorusu, ngilizce'de "Have you ever ...?" ile sorulur. Yant "Hayr"
ise, ou kez, "No, I have never ..." ile karlanacaktr:
-- Have you ever had a car accident?
-- Have you ever been to Kars?
-- No, I have never been to Kars... No, I have never been there in my life... No, I haven't... No, I never
have...
NOT: Hatrlarsanz, bir nceki Blmde, "the Simple Present" ve "The Present Perfect" karlatrmas
yaparken, "gone to" / "been to" farkll zerinde nemle durmutuk. imdi konuyu blp sizi oraya
refere etmektense, burada tekrarlyorum:
# Siz hi Kars'ta bulundunuz mu?
Bu soruyu Trke'de, "Siz hi Kars'a gittiniz mi?" eklinde ifade etmek de olanakldr. Yani, "gitmek"
fiili ile... Oysa ingilizcede "been to" kalbn kullanmak zorundayz. Yani, "bulunmu olmak"... Neden?
nk, present perfect tense "gemiten bugne ve hal" kavramn ieriyor ve o balamda "gitmi
olmak" kavramn kullanamayz. Konutuumuz kii Kars'a gitmi (=gone to) ve hala orada deildir.
Kars'ta "bulunmu" (=been to) imdi dnm karmzdadr. Dolaysyla:
Q. Have you ever been to Kars?
A. Yes, I have (been to Kars)...
veya, No, I have never been to Kars.
Peki, ya arkadanz size Kars'tan telefon etse ne diyecekti? "I have come to Kars" diyecekti. Yani, gelmi
bulunuyorum, halen buradaym.
Ama, nc bir kii Kars'a gitmi, halen oradaysa, o zaman u tmceyi kuracaksnz: "He has gone to
Kars." (= Gitti, halen orada)

01 Bu tense iin anahtar kullanm parametresi, "gemiten ...bugne sregeldi ve de hal da sryor"
kavramdr. Belli yada belirsiz bir noktadan veya dnemden balayarak sregelmi ve halen de srmekte
olan eylem ve durumlar iin kullanlr. Zaman belirteci kullanlmas zorunlu deildir:
We have been living in zmir for twenty years (=since 1983).
He has been working for two hours now.
We've been doing it for years / for ages. (= yllardk yapageldik; hal da yapyoruz, yapmaya devam
ediyoruz)
I have been thinking it over. I'll let you know when I have come to a firm decision. (Bir sredir kafamda
evirip eviriyorum...)
02 Szkonusu durum yada eylem aslnda az nce bitmi/tamamlanm olabilir; ama daha nceki
sreklilii vurgulamak iin:
I'm sorry I'm late. Have you been waiting long for me?
Oh, I'm exhausted. I've been walking about the town all day. (Oysa u anda evde ayaklarmz uzatm
oturuyoruz)
Hey! Have you been asleep all the morning? I've been ringing the bell for the last twenty minutes. (Oysa
kap alm, konuuyor olduumuza gre, artk zili almyoruz)
03 fke ve onaylamama, ilgin bulma, arma... gibi vurgularn dile getirildii rnekler de vardr:
Somebody has been using my comb! Somebody has been using my towel. (Ayn zamanda, bu eylemin
srekli yaplageldii olasln da dile getirmi oluyoruz. Oysa, "Somebody has used my comb."
eklindeki tmce bunun belki de tek kez yaplm olduunu ifade edecekti.)
I hear you have been visiting Greece lately. What was the weather like over there? (Oysa, Yunanistan
ziyareti tamamlanm durumda. Ama, konuya duyduumuz ilgiyi dile getiriyoruz.)
03 Ne var ki, aadakine benzer "say" belirtilen durumlarda "continuous tense" kullanmnn
olanakszlna dikkat ediniz:
I have written ten letters today. ("I have been writing ten letters..." geersiz olur, nk on ayr mektubu
birlikte yazagelmi olamam... Ama, "I have been writing letters all day long" geerli bir seenektir: Btn
gn mektuplar -- bir sr mektup -- yazageldim...)
Ayn ekilde,
He has done it many times in the past. veya, He has been doing it repeatedly all this time. (Pekok kereler
yapt / yapm bulunuyor... Bunca zamandr tekrar ve tekrar yapyor / yapageldi...)
He has had five cups of tea since six o'clock. veya, He has been having cups and cups of tea since six
o'clock. = Saat altdan bu yana be bardak ay iti... Saat altdan bu yana bardak bardak ay iegeldi...
Benzer bir rnek iin, ilerdeki "The Future Perfect Continuous Tense" konusu Madde 2'ye bknz.

THE PAST PERFECT SIMPLE TENSE


Bu tense iin anahtar kullanm parametresi: Gemiteki bir noktadan yada dnemden daha ncesi... Nasl
ki, gnmz asndan maziyi simple past ile deerlendiriyorsak, bu da "gemiin mazisi... gemiin
gemii"...
Unutmaynz: Her ikisi de gemite kalm iki eylemden nceki iin past perfect, sonraki iin simple
past...
01 Gemiteki belli bir nokta yada dnemden daha nce olmu bitmi (ama, anlamca szkonusu nokta
veya dnemle ilikili) durum ve eylemler. Her tmcede illa ki zaman belirtmek zorunda deiliz:
I sat down and rested awhile after I had finished cleaning the house. (=nk yorulmutum)
I had finished my breakfast before he came. (=rnein, "karnm doyurmutum, bir daha da yiyecek halim
yoktu," eklinde yorumlanabilir)
I had finished all the preparations by the time he arrived. (=rnein, "btn ileri bitirmitim, yaplmas

numerous love affairs, and had managed to remain single and protect his precious freedom. But now he
was ready to ...etc. (ou yk, bu tarzda, yani anlatacamz olaylarn ncesine ilikin bir zetleme ile

02 Dolaysyla, yukarda da deindiim gibi, her ikisi de gemite kalm, ancak aralarnda zaman
faslas bulunan iki durum yada eylemden ilkini ifade etmekte. Yani aralarnda bir nedensellik ilikisi
bulunmas da gerekmiyor:
When I arrived, Ali had just left. (=az nce kmt)
I had poured myself a nice cup of tea when the phone rang.

She had lived in this small village ever since she was born. She had always milked the cows, fed the
sheep and attended the chickens for as long as she could remember. (Doduu gnden beri hep bu kk

tam, szkonusu gemiteki belli noktaya dein srm yada ondan ksa bir sre nce sona ermi

It was now six in the evening and he was tired. He had been working since the dawn of the day.
It was six in the evening. He was home now and tired. He had been working outside all day long.
Ali said that he had been studying English for two years.

THE FUTURE PERFECT SIMPLE TENSE


01 Gelecekte belirsiz bir zamanda, ama belirttiimiz (yada ima ettiimiz) belli bir nokta yada dnemin
ncesinde... gereklemi, tamamlanm olacak durum ve eylemler. Trke'ye evirisi: "...m olacak":

Dolaysyla, "by now" = imdiye dein; "by then" = o zamana dein...]

03 a. was watching... Ayrca, "seyrediyordu" gzlemine ek olarak, "bir sredir seyredegelmiti" bilgisine
de sahipsek = had been watching; "seyretmi" = "had watched"... b. will be watching... (will have been
watching = "bir sredir" kavramn ekleyecektir)... c. was watching... (had been watching = "bir sredir"
kavramn ekleyecektir)... d. has been watching: sreklilii vurgulamak iin; ama "has watched" da
olanakl... e. had been watching...
04 a. wrote... = zaman belli (Eer, trkede "Daha onbe yandayken yazmt, 'mili gemi, o halde
past perfect, diye dndyseniz, kitabn en bana dnp bir daha balaynz!)... Tabii, "He had been
writing..." olanakl: Yalnz o durumda, kitabn sonradan bitirilip bitirilmediini bilmiyoruz demektir. Past
perfect simple "had written" ise ancak zaman belirteciniz "before he was 15" eklinde olursa geerlik
kazanacaktr: Onbe yandan nce yazm bitirmiti... b. will be writing... will write = yazacak,
bitirecek... c. was writing... wrote = yazd, bitirdi... d. had written = yazm, bitirmiti... had been writing
= henz bitirmemiti... e. was writing... (had been writing = O srada ne yapmakta olduuna ek olarak "bir

06 a. visit... will be visiting... b. visited... were visiting... (Continuous seenekler, ou zaman, verilen
sre boyunca sreklilik kavramn destekleyecektir)... c. had visited... (say belirtildii iin continuous

KISA GR
"Yardmc fiiller" ad verilen gramer snf, olay / durum / eylemi bildiren asl fiile, "tense", "mood" ve
"manner" (zaman, kip ve tarz) oluumunda destek veren fiillerden oluur. Bunlara ilikin yap ve kurallar
ierir:
They have been singing at least for an hour. (Bir gerei bildiriyoruz)
May you always be this happy!... (Bir dilekte bulunuyoruz: Hep bu derece mutlu olasn!)
lk tmcede, "have" ve "been", "to sing" fiilinin "the Present Perfect Continuous Tense" ekimini
salyor. kinci rnekte, "may" yardmc fiili "to be" fiilinin "the Subjunctive Mood" kullanmna olanak
salyor: Dilerim hep bu kadar mutlu olasn...
"Asl" fiil iin "principal verb"; "yardmc" fiil iin de "auxiliary verb" terimleri yaygndr, ki bu ikincisi
de zaten "yardmc" anlam tamaktadr.
66

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

Yardmc fiiller iin ngilizce gramerde kullanlan bir baka terim de "modals" szcdr. Tpk
"modality" szc gibi Latince "modus" szcnden geliyor ve Latince'deki eitli anlamlarndan birisi
de "manner" (tarz) anlam tayor. Nitekim, yardmc filler, eylemlerin dz anlamlarna deiik bir yorum
boyutu, deiik bir "hava", deiik yaklam nanslar katyorlar.
Yardmc fiiller konusu, ngilizce retiminde zerinde en ok durulan, en korkulan ve en sevimsiz,
dolaysyla da en az renilen bir konu olmak durumuna getirilmitir. Mfredat doldurmak, ders
saatlerini uzatmak iin okulda / kursta / dershanede konuyu ayrntlara bomann net kazanc budur.
Pratikten ok, pirin taneleri zerine anlamn bilmediimiz dualar yazmaa ynelen renim
alkanlklarmzla, ok alp hibir ey renmemek iin biilmi bir kaftan... zleyen maddelerde,
sorunlar ve zmlerini pratik adan zetlemee alacam.

ANLAM AISINDAN
Yardmc fiiller, birlikte olduklar fiile belli anlam ve nans renkleri kazandrrlar. Yaplmas gereken
alma da, herbir yardmc fiil iin bu anlam ve nans renklerinin neler olduunun renilmesi,
rneklenmesi, ve uygulama becerisinin kazandrlmas olmaldr.
Ne var ki, yzyllarn birikimi idiomatik kullanmlar ve gramercilerin bunlar yapay kalplara oturtma
gayretkelikleri yznden, yardmc fillerin anlamca snflanmas konusu iinden klmaz bir karmaa
kazanmtr.
lerleyen blmlerde, yardmc fiillerin getirdikleri bellibal nanslar iin ayrntda boulmayan bir
dkm vermee alacam.

YAPISAL AIDAN
1 Yardmc fiillerin ardndan, asl fiilerin yaln mastar hali kullanlr. (Yani, mastarn bandaki "to"
der...):
You must leave today. ["to leave" yerine]
She should start all over again. ["to start"]
It could be done better. ["to be done" edilgen mastar yerine]
Bunun istisnas vardr: ought to, have to, used to...
67

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

You ought to leave today.


She has to start all over again.
It used to be done better.
NOT: Aslnda, "ought, have, used" yardmc fiillerini retim kolayl bakmndan bu ekilde
adlandryoruz: Dierlerinden farkl olarak, tam mastar aldklarn bu ekilde vurguluyoruz.
zel bir durum olarak, need ve dare fiillerinin de, do/did veya will/would ile ekime girmedikleri srece,
yaln mastar alacaklarna dikkat ediniz:
You needn't say anything... You needn't have said anything... (Fakat, You don't/didn't/won't need to say
anything.)
How dare you insult me!... I dared not wake him... (Fakat, I didn't/wouldn't dare (to) wake him.)

"PRESENT" VE "PERFECT" KALIPLAR

1 Olabilir... Olmu Olabilir...


Yardmc fiillerin ekimi, zamana bak as olarak, iki farkl boyutta gerekleir. yle de
syleyebiliriz: Yardmc fiilerin iki biimi vardr:
a present biimler (kalplar)
b perfect biimler (kalplar)

rnek 1: "To Be"


Present -- Perfect
can be -- can have been
could be -- could have been
may be -- may have been
might be -- might have been
will be -- will have been
would be -- would have been
68

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

shall be -- shall have been


should be -- should have been
must be -- must have been
ought to be -- ought to have been
rnek 2: "To See"
Present -- Perfect
can see -- can have seen
could see -- could have seen
may see -- may have seen
might see -- might have seen
will see -- will have seen
would see -- would have seen
shall see -- shall have seen
should see -- should have seen
must see -- must have seen
ought to see -- ought to have seen

imdi, daha sonra teki pekok blmde tekrar ele alacam, canalc deerde, ok nemli bir konuya
deinelim. Aslnda bu konudan, "Temel Kavramlar" Blmmzde, "ngilizce'nin zamana ikici (dualist)
bak as" bal altnda biraz sz etmitik. Buna gre:
1 - imdiki zaman, geni zaman, gelecek zaman kapsamnda "present" kalplar kullanlr.
2 - Gemie dnk bildirimlerde "perfect" kalplarlar kullanlr.
Ne kolay, deil mi?!!
3 - FAKAT DKKAT ! Tmcede sz edilen durum ve eylemlerin bu ikici bak as ile

rnekle giderek aklk kazanacaktr:
She can do it, if she wants to... Geni zamanda yapabilirlik, veya u an yada gelecee dnk izin...
"sterse yapabilir"... Ne zaman? imdi, genelde veya gelecekte.
She may have done it, though we haven't seen her doing it... "Yapm olabilir"... Ne zaman? inde
bulunduumuz an itibariyle gemite.
She might have been there, though I don't remember seeing her... "Ben grmedim, ama belki de
oradaymtr"... inde bulunduumuz an itibaryla gemite.
She might have been there earlier, though I hadn't noticed anyone... I couldn't have noticed her anyway,
since I had been so busy with the other guests... "Belki de daha nceden oradayd; geri kimseyi
farketmemitim ama. Zaten farkedemezdim, nk teki konuklarla ilgilenegelmitim." Gemiteki bir
noktann ncesi...
It wouldn't matter at all. He could go and visit her the next day. Yes, this was what he would do... "Hi
nemi yoktu bunun. Kendisini gidip ertesi gn ziyaret edebilirdi. Evet, yle yapacakt"... Gemiteki bir
noktann geleceinden sz ediyoruz... Dolaysyla da "would... could..." eklindeki PRESENT kalplar
kullanyoruz...
EYVAH ! EYVAH !!, Bugne dein size hep "would, could, should" past tense'tir diye retmilerdi,
deil mi? Biraz sabr -- az sonra herey suyzne kacak... [Ve unutmaynz: Bunlarn "gemie" ynelik
olarak kullanlan "perfect" biimleri "would have been", "could have been" eklindedir]
imdilik, rneklere devam:
It is possible that you will not have noticed her before she announces herself, though she might have
come and left a couple of times while you are there. "Ola ki, sen oradayken birka kez gelip gitmi
olacaktr, ama kendisini tantrncaya kadar sen bunu farketmi olmayacaksn"... Gelecekteki bir
noktann ncesi... Bize gre gelecekte, ama olaya gre gemite... Dolaysyla da PERFECT kullanyoruz.
I will have finished it by next week... "Bitirmi olacam"... Nezaman? Gelecekteki bir noktadan nce...
Bize gre gelecekte, ama tmcedeki zamana gre gemite... Dolaysyla da PERFECT kullanyoruz.
She promised that she would finish it that week... "O hafta bitireceine sz verdi"... Dikkat ederseniz,
bizim amzdan olay gemite; ama tmcedeki zaman asndan gelecek zamandan sz ediliyor -- bu
nedenle bir PRESENT kalp kullandk.
She promised that she would have finished it by the following week... "Ertesi haftadan nce bitirmi
olacana sz verdi/vermiti"... Bizim amzdan olaylar gemite, ama tmcedeki zaman asndan
gelecekteki bir noktann ncesinden sz ediliyor -- bu nedenle bir PERFECT kalp kullandk.
She must be hungry... "ok ackm olmal"... u anda.
She must have been hungry... Herhalde ok ackmt... Az nce yemee otururken veya geen gn, vb.
Ama, gemiteki bir noktada yada dnemde.
Should I do it this afternoon?... "Bugn leden sonra yapsam m acaba?"... imdiki yada gelecek zamana
dnk danma, yada kendi kendine soru... Eeee, hani "should" PAST zamanlar iin kullanlr diyorlard?!

I should have done it yesterday / the other day... "Dn yapmalydm"... Gemie dnk pimanlk veya
sulama... Bugnn gemii.
He should have finished it on the day before. But he hadn't... "Bir nceki gn bitirmeliydi, bitirmi
olmalyd. Ama bitirmemiti"... Gemiin gemii...
It is very cold outside. You should wear your coat... "Giymelisin"... (Gelecee dnk)
It was very cold today. You should have worn your coat... "Giymeliydin"... (rnein, ayn gnn akam
konuuyoruz)
Deerli Okuyucum; ngilizcenin zamana olan bu ikici / dualist (present X perfect) bak as ile,
mastarlar, ad-fiiller, sfat/zarf fiiller, koul ve dilek kipleri gibi Kitabn teki pekok Blmnde
hesaplamaya devam edeceiz. Bu konuya byk nem veriyorum. Mutlaka billurlatrmak zorundayz.
Az aada "would, could, should, might" sorununu yeniden ele alacam.

KURULU ZELL
ngilizcede toplam 6 mastar kalb bulunduunu hatrlarsak, yardmc fiillerle kurabileceimiz 6 eit
anlatm kalb da kendiliinden ortaya kar. nk, biliyorsunuz, Anlatm Kalb = Yard. Fiil + Mastar...
O halde nce mastarlarmz gzden geirelim:

To see = grmek (present active)


To be seen = grlmek (present passive)
To have seen = grm olmak (perfect active)
To have been seen = grlm olmak (perfect passive)
To be seeing = gryor olmak (present continuous)
To have been seeing = gryor olmu olmak, veya gregelmi olmak (perfect continuous)

Buna gre Herhangi Bir Yardmc Fiilin Kullanm Kalplar iin ematik Dkm Aadaki ekilde
Oluur:
ZNE YARDIMCI FL (NOT) ASIL FL
(yaln Mastar)

Yukardaki kurulu zellii acaba gerekten "had better" gibi etrefil bir yardmc fiil iin de geerli
midir diye merak eden okuyucularm iin aadaki rnekleri sunuyorum (kanlmaz biimde ok girift
rnekler):
He had better have kept the loot for himself. Umarm ganimeti kendisi iin saklamtr... He had better
have done nothing at all. Umarm hibirey yapmamtr...
He thinks he can play the piano, but I thorougly disagree. I think he had better have been kicking a
football rather than taking piano lessons. Piyano dersleri alacana futbol topunun peinde koturagelmi
olsayd ok daha iyi etmi olurdu...
Ali regretted the whole affair. He was thinking that those words had better not have been spoken and that
they had better have been forgotten. Ali btn olaydan pimanlk duyuyordu. En iyisi bu szlerin hi
sylenmemi olmas olurdu (diye) ve umarm unutulmulardr diye dnyordu...
Wow!! yi ki snav sorularn hazrlayan kimseler ar kalpsiz deiller...
Bu arada, "ought to" yardmc fiili iin kullandmz, "ought not to go, ought not to have done"
eklindeki yaplarn da, "to" partiklnn aslnda mastarn bir paras olduunu doruladn yeniden
belirtelim. Daha nce de deindiimiz gibi, "ought to, have to, used to" eklinde anlmalar, bunlarn
dier yardmc fiillerden farkl olarak "tam mastar" aldklarn renciye hatrlatmak iin...

DKKAT... DKKAT...

COULD, WOULD, SHOULD, MIGHT


Dikensiz Gl Bahesi Olur mu ?...
te bir sorun alan... Yardmc fiillerin "tense" karl iki biimleri vardr dedik... Dedik ama, ne yazk
ki, yzyllarn birikimi idiomatik kullanmlar ve olaan deiim sreleri iinde durum birhayli daha
karmak. rnein, imdi szn edeceimiz bu drt yardmc fiil:
1 Can - will - shall - may fiillerinin "past tense" biimi olarak davranabiliyor; rnein, dolayl anlatmda
giri fiili past tense ise bu uygulama devreye giriyor ve "Ne yaptnz?" diye sorulunca, "Bir derece past
yaptk," yantn veriyoruz...
2 Oysa kendileri de, "present" anlaml BAIMSIZ birer yardmc fiil olarak kullanlabiliyor.
rneklersek:
She may come this afternoon... = imdiki veya Gelecek zaman.
She might come this afternoon... Bu da imdiki yada gelecek zaman. Ancak, olasln biraz daha zayf
olduu anlalyor.
He couldn't do it last week... = Gemi zaman.
73

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

Could you possibly do it next week?... Bu kez kesinlikle gelecek zaman.


Peki, zm? En iyi zm, yardmc fiilleri birer anlam katks olarak grmek ve "tense" olayn baka
gstergelerde aramak. Bununla ne demek istediimi, yukardaki tmceleri Tarzanca evirirseniz ok iyi
greceksiniz:
Var bir olaslk o gelmek bugn leden sonra...
Var zayf bir olaslk o gelmek bugn leden sonra...
Yok o yapabilmek onu geen hafta...
Var sen yapabilmek ? onu gelecek hafta...
ngilizce'den Trke'ye eviri yaparken, arayz olarak Tarzanca'ya bavurmakta sonsuz yarar var...

OLANAK VE OLASILIK
Trke'de iie gemi olan bu iki kavram ("imkan" ve "ihtimal" byle deillerdi) ngilizcede kesin
snrlarla ayrlmaktadr: Her imkan dahilinde olan ey, "muhtemel" demek deildir. (= "Her olanakl olan
ey ayn zamanda olaslk da tayor demek deildir.")
Cole Porter'n nl caz arksndan esinlenerek:
Baby, it isn't because I shouldn't do it... And you know it isn't because I couldn't do it... And it certainly
isn't because I wouldn't do it or I might not do it... It's just because I don't feel like doing it today...
Yapmamam gerektii iin deil... Yapamayacam, beceremeyeceim iin de deil... Hi yapmam veya
yapma olaslm yok anlamna da gelmiyor... Yalnzca bugn pek canm istemiyor...
Uzun szn ksas, herbir yardmc fiil seenei tmceye kendi anlam ve nansn getirecektir:
If the ambulance had arrived a little earlier, his life -would have been saved = Kesin kurtarlm olurdu...
could have been saved = Olanak kazanrd, imkan dahiline girerdi...
might have been saved = Byle bir olaslk doard, ihtimal kazanrd...

RNEKLER:
She is getting fatter and fatter. She must be eating too much... Demek ki ok yemek yiyor...
The streets are wet this morning. It must have rained last night... Yam olsa gerek; demek ki gece
yamur yam.
Look at him devour his food. He must be hungry... unun yemeini silip sprne bak! ok ackm

He has devoured all that food. He must have been very hungry... Bunca yiyecei silip sprm olduuna

Present X Perfect eklindeki farkl bak alarn rnekleyen ok ilgin bir tanmz daha var:
Biliyorsunuz, "by" zaman bildiren anlatmlarda "nce" anlamna gelir ve rnein "by now" = "imdiye

Peki, u iki tmceyi ngilizce'ye evirelim:
u ana dein bitirmi olsalar gerek (herhalde bitirmilerdir). = They must have finished it by now.

zamana ilikin bir saptama yapyoruz...

Be used to = Bu bir deyim. Anlam: "alm olmak, alkn olmak. Btn tense'lerde ekilebilir ve
ardndan ad-fiil (gerund) alr.
Sre bildiren hali: "get used to, become used to" = almak... Bu deyimler, "be accustomed to, get
accustomed to, become accustomed to" ile eanlamldrlar.
I used to get up quite early in the past, but I don't do that any longer. = Eskiden olduka erken kalkardm,
ama artk bunu yapmyorum.
I am used to getting up early. I got used to it when I was in the army. = Erken kalkmaa alknm. Buna
askerde altm...
DKKAT... DKKAT...
"Would" yardmc fiilinin ok nemli bir kullanm boyutuna burada iaret edebiliriz. Bu da, yukardaki
birinci anlamda, "used to" yerine kullanlmas:
She used to stand at the door and wave at me = She would stand at the door and wave at me... Kapda
durur. bana el sallard...
Every time I tried to leave her, she would lock herself up and start to cry. Onu her terketmeye
kalktmda, odasna kapanr alamaya balard...
Bu kullanmn olumsuz kalb da ok ilgin bir anlam iletir:
She would never let me be... Beni asla rahat brakmazd... veya, Beni asla rahat brakmayacaktr... [Yani
gerek "past" gerekse "present/future" anlam verebiliyor.]

Have You ...? / Do You Have ...?

kisi de standart ngilizce'dir ve birbirlerinin yerine kullanlabilir. kincisinin kullanm kolayl


bakmndan tercih edilmesi dnlebilir (yada belki bana daha kolay geliyor):
Have you a pen? Haven't you any friends in this town? I haven't much money on me...
Yes, I have. / No, I haven't.
Do you have a pen? Don't you have any friends in this town? I don't have much money on me...
Yes, I do. / No, I don't.
nemli Not: Yukardaki rnekler, "have" fiilinin "sahip olmak" anlam ile ilikilidir. "Have to" (=
zorunluluk) yardmc fiili ise olumsuz ve soru biimlerini yalnz ikinci kalpta oluturur:
"Do you have to go now?"... "Yes, I do..." "No, I don't..."
"You don't have to do that now, do you?"... "Yes, I do..." "No, I don't..".
te yandan, "have" fiilinin vurgulu biimi olan olan "have got" kalb da aadaki kalplarda kullanlr:
He has got a lot of money... (= have, yani asl fiil olarak = sahip olmak. Tmcenin "simple present tense"
olduuna dikkat ediniz.)
I've got to leave now. (= have to... Zorunluluk belirtir ve ounlukla ksaltlm biim kullanlr. Bu
tmcenin de "present perfect" deil, "simple present tense" olduuna dikkat ediniz.)
Have you got to go now? imdi gitmek zorunda msnz?

Shall I?... Shall We?... Will You?...


Shall / Will fiillerinin ilettikleri anlamlar ve tarihsel srete ortaya km olan idiomatik gariplikleri
"future tense" (bknz. Blm 3) konusunu ilerken ele almtk. Burada bir dizi standart kullanma daha
iaret etmek isterim:
Shall I open the window?... Shall I get you a glass of water?... Aaym m?... Getireyim mi?... Bu
tmceleri "will" ile kuramazsnz. nk o zaman, "Bil bakalm aacak mym, amayacak mym...
getirecek miyim, getirmeyecek miyim" gibi garip bir anlam kazanrlar.
What shall I do now?... Ben imdi ne yapacam, n'olacam?! Kendi kendine sorulan bir soru veya
znt anlatm...
Let's go home now, shall we?... Hadi eve gidelim, olur mu? DKKAT: Grld gibi, "let us" kalbnn
"kuyruk = tag" sorusu bu ekilde oluturulur.
Yes, let's... No, let's not... Bunlar da yantlar...

KISA AIKLAMA
Bu Blmde dikkatimizi, tmcede zne veya nesne ilevi stlenen bal tmcelikler (isim nitelii tayan
yan cmlecik) stne younlatracaz. Bildiiniz gibi, herhangi bir tmcede bu ilevler tek bir ad ile
karlanabilecei gibi, bunun yerine bir ad-bei (noun phrase) yada ad-tmcelik de (noun clause)
kullanlabilir.
lk iki durumda, birer yaln tmce (basit tmce /simple sentence); nc durumda ise bir karmak tmce
(bileik tmce / complex sentence) kurmu oluruz:
Ali prefers tea.
My son prefers foreign films.
My son has told me that he prefers foreign films.
Unutmaynz, gramer birimlerini ilevlerine gre tanmlayp snflyoruz: "foreign films" yap olarak bir
sfat tamlamasdr; ama burada nesne ilevi tayor. nk, "Ne sever, neyi sever?" sorusuna yant
veriyor. O halde onu bir "ad-bei" (noun phrase) olarak deerlendireceiz.
Ayn ekilde, "that he..." ile balayan tmcelik de "Ne sever, neyi sever?" sorusuna yant veriyor ve "to
tell" fiilinin nesnesi konumundadr: O halde "ad-tmcelik" (noun clause) olarak deerlendireceiz.
NOT: Kitabmzn pragmatik/pratik amalarna uygun olarak, burada da belli bir yuvarlama ve
yalnlatrmaya gittim. Daha ayrntl gramatik aklama isteyen okuyucular, Blm sonundaki "leri
Dzeyde Notlar" Blmne bakabilirler. Ama o Blm "skc" bulursanz, beni sulamayn.

nemli Not: Yardmc fiillerle kurulan soru tmcelerinde, "if" ve "if...or not" ieren ad-tmcelikler zne
konumunda kullanlamaz. Bu kategoride yalnz "whether" ieren ad-tmcelikler yer alabilir.
Yani, ***"If she will come (or not) is not known," eklinde bir tmce kuramazsnz. Doru tmce:
"Whether (or not) she will come (or not) is not known."

TABLO - 1'in RDELENMES


DZ-TMCEDEN RETLEN AD-TMCELK
ngilizce'de herhangi bir dz-tmce'nin bana that balac getirerek bir ad-tmcelik tekil edebilir, sonra
da bunu bir fiilin znesi yada nesnesi olarak kullanabilirsiniz. Formlnz:
that + dz-tmce = ad-tmcelik
* * * *
A) zne Olarak Kullanm:
Ad-tmceliin zne konumunda olduu tmceler gl bir anlatm olana salamakla birlikte fazla sk
grlmez; daha ok hitabette ve vurgulu, tumturakl ifadelerde kullanlr. Gnlk dilde, bu kalptan
dnmle elde edilen aadaki ikinci rnek tmce tipi ok daha yaygndr. Vurgulama dnda tmyle
anlamda olduklarna dikkat ediniz:
1. That AIDS is a very dangerous syndrome is now generally known.
2. It is now generally known that Aids is a very dangerous syndrome.
rnekler aada oaltlmaktadr. Dikkat etmeniz gereken nokta: Ad-tmcelik baa alndnda bala
kullanlmas zorunludur, yani "that" kaldrlamaz; ikinci konumda ise bala kullanm zorunlu deildir
ve zellikle konuma dilinde "that" ou zaman devre d braklr.

Ancak bu uygulamann yeni balayanlar iin belli bir ayrtrma gl oluturmas nedeniyle,
"intermediate" dzey okuyucularmzn imdilik her konumda "that" balacn kullanmalarn neririm.

ARA TAVSYE
DKKAT... DKKAT... Ayrca, hi unutmamanz gereken nemli bir nokta da udur: Bir tmcenin
gramer asndan salkl saylabilmesi, onun gnlk yaamda kullanlabilirlii asndan garanti tekil
etmez. Trke etken / edilgen dnmn renen bir yabanc, gnlk konuma srasnda "Kz gzme
kestirdim," yerine, bilgisini sergilemek amacyla, "Kz benim tarafndan gzme kestirildi" diye bir tmce
kurarsa, herhalde alk toplamayacaktr. Oysa gramerce dorudur... Demek istediim, ileri dzey ngilizce
bilgisine ulancaya dein, "orjinal" tmce kurmaktan kannz. Karlatnz, ilgin bulduunuz,
iinize yarayabilecek, yada yalnzca hounuza giden tmceleri kalp halinde ezberlemek yoluna gidiniz.
Giderek, kalptaki ad, sfat ve zarflar deitirmek suretiyle ifade zenginlii olanaklarnz geniletirsiniz.

rnein burada da, hertrl ad-tmcelii paa gnlnz isterse zne isterse nesne konumunda
kullanlabilir sonucu karlmamaldr. Aadaki tmceler, gramer rnei olarak sunulmaktadr. zellikle
"zne" konumunda olan bazlarna gnlk dilde rastlama olaslnz sfra yakndr diyebilirim.
imdi bu aamadaki rneklerimize geelim:

He is stinking rich. (be obvious -- simple present


kullannz)
That he is stinking rich is obvious.
It is obvious that he is stinking rich.
There is a link. (be strongly suspected simple present)
That there is a link is strongly suspected.
It is strongly suspected that there is a link.
They are twin brothers. (surprise everyone; simple present)
That they are twin brothers surprises everyone.
It surprises everyone that they are twin brothers.
Women are worse drivers than men. (never be proven; present perfect)
99

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

That women are worse drivers than men has never been proven.
It has never been proven that women are worse drivers than men.
The business has gone bankrupt. (be known; future tense ile kullannz)
That the business has gone bankrupt will be known within a very few days.
It will be known within a very few days that the business has gone bankrupt.
Her father happened to be the director. (not concern me; past)
That her father happened to be the director didn't concern me.
It didn't concern me that her father happened to be the director.

Some of the things (that) we found there were truly amazing.
2. Ad-tmcelik (noun clause). rnekler:

Bu rneklerde, "that" ile balayan ad-tmcelikler nesne ilevini karlyor. (Direct object, yada
complement, hepsini kapsayacak ekilde yuvarlyorum.)
Ama, daha az yaygn olan bir baka kullanm rneinde, bu tr ad-tmcelikler, zne (subject) ilevi ile de
kullanlabilir: rnekler:
That they hold you responsible for it is not surprising. artc olmayan nedir? Seni sorumlu tutmalar...
That she doesn't care at all is pretty obvious.. Gayet belli olan nedir? Hi umursamad, aldr
etmedii...
That man is a political animal is well known. yi bilinen ey nedir? nsanolunun toplumsal bir yaratk
olduu... ("Toplumsal" kavram, "eski Yunan polis'lerinde, yani kentlerinde yayor olmak" kavramndan
kaynaklanyor)
Gryorsunuz, ad-tmcelik burada zne ilevi ile kullanlyor.
Sonuta, verdiimiz rnek doru ve yakkl bir tmcedir. Anlam ise:
Aristo'nun yle bireyler sylemi olduu bilinir: "nsanolunun toplumsal bir yaratk olduu besbelli..."
Bu arada, bir de tonlamaya ilikin bir not: Tabiatiyle buradaki "That man ... etc" tmcesini "bu adam, u
adam" anlamna gelen "this man, that man" deki gibi tonlamayacaksnz. Burada "that" szcn
birhayli bastrarak ve "ukalaca" bir tavrla syledikten sonra, bir an duraklayp ardndan ad-tmcelii
patlatacaksnz! Unutmayn, hitabet ve belagat sanatndan bir rnek veriyorsunuz...

He keeps/kept boasting (that) the inflation is/was/had been etc...


It appears (that) the inflation is really/will really be going down.
Ksacas, dz-tmcelerden, bana "that" balacn getirerek oluturulacak sonsuz saydaki ad-tmcelik,
daha yzlerce fiilin nesnesi olarak kullanlabilir. Kullanm skl ok yksek olan bu yapya baka ilgin
rnekler de verelim:
There is little hope (that) the inflation is going down at all...
There is some evidence (that) the fight against inflation will yet dominate Turkish economics for years on
end (for years on end = yllarca)...
Would you agree (that) the inflation is going down? (...... grne katlyor musunuz?)
I had no idea (that) she was a policewoman... Nobody seemed to care (that) she was a policewoman...
Didn't you notice at the time (that) she was a policewoman?
It's a pity (that) you couldn't get there on time...
The fact is (that) the stars are too widely dispersed in space...
The trouble is (that) I've got very little money...
She's convinced (that) she's going to lose her job soon.
I'm afraid (that) they'll have to postpone the game...
I'm sorry (that) you can't come tonight...
I'm glad (that) this boring exercise is now over... (to be over = bitmek, sona ermek)
(Tekrara gerek var m bilmem, ama biliyorsunuz bu kitapta gramer bizim iin bir ama deil, yalnzca bir
ara... Konular ve terimleri, bize en kestirmeden hizmet edebilecekleri ekilde yuvarlayp zetliyorum.
rnein yukardaki rneklerde, geili fiillerin "object" leri olduu kadar, farkl baz yaplar da nesne
bal altnda gsterdim. Bu ar suu, herhalde tyleri u anda fkeden dimdik olmu gramer
polislerine bari kendim duyuraym dedim...)

"Sorulardan ad-tmcelik" konusuna gemeden nce ok nemli bir hatrlatma:


DKKAT... DKKAT
Bu noktada, daha nce de deindiimiz bir kural yeniden nemle vurgulamak isterim: Btn baltmcelikler (yan-tmcelikler) dz-tmce olmak zorundadr. Baka bir deyile, ad-tmcelik, sfattmcelik, zarf-tmcelik soru biiminde olamaz.
(Peki bu kadar nemli bir kural da, neden acaba bugne dein kimse size bundan sz etmedi? Peki,

ok doal olan bu gerei kurallatrmay dnmez. Bal-tmceliin (yan-tmceliin) bu en nemli


zelliini ltfen asla, ama asla aklnzdan karmaynz.)
Demek ki, soru tmcelerinden ad-tmcelik olutururken ilk yapacanz ey bunu dz-tmceye
evirmektir. rnekleri izleyiniz:

-- Does she still keep it?


-- Yes, I'm certain (that) she still keeps it.
-- Will she be coming tonight?
-- No, I'm sure (that) she won't be coming tonight.

NOT: Olaan konuma ortamnda, "Yes, I'm certain she did... No, I'm sure she won't..." eklindeki ksa
yantlar doal ve yeterli saylacaktr. rnekleyelim:
Q: Has anyone been hurt? A: No, I'm happy to say that no one has.
Q: Is the price likely to go up again? A: Yes, I'm afraid it is.
Q: Is he crazy or something ? A: Yes, I think he is.
Q: Did they lend you the money?

A: Yes, I'm very grateful (that) they did.

SORULARDAN AD-TMCELK
Bu Blmn bandaki Tablodan hatrlayacanz zere, bu konu iki alt balk altnda incelenecektir: 1)
Yardmc fiillerle kurulan soru tmceleri... 2) Soru szckleri yada soru szck bekleri ile
gerekletirilen sorular...
A) Yardmc Fiillerle Kurulan Sorular:
Bu tip soru tmcelerinden ad-tmcelik oluturmak iin, 1) Dz-tmceye eviriniz, 2) Bana Tabloda
gsterdiimiz balalardan birisini getiriniz.
1) te imdi ok nemli bir noktaya deineceiz. Dikkat edilirse aada rneklenen her ngilizce
tmce, Trke'de ayn eviriyi veriyor:

By dream_Catcher

She asked me if I was happy.


She asked me if I wasn't happy.
She asked me if I was happy or not.
= Mutlu olup olmadm sordu.
[Hernekadar, ilk iki rnei, "Acaba mutlu muy(d)um diye sordu" / "Acaba mutlu deil miy(d)im diye
sordu" eklinde evirmek olana varsa da...]
Ksacas, Trke'de soru sormak amacyla, "Mutlu olduu -- mu sordu?... Mutlu olmad -- m sordu?..."
yaplar kural ddr, ama ngilizce'de sorular bu ekilde sorabiliyor; zel olarak "mutlu olup
olmadm" kavramn iletmek istersek "or not" yapsna ba vuruyoruz.
2) Yine ok nemli bir nokta: "If" yada "if... or not" kalbyla kurulan tmcelik zne konumunda
kullanlamaz. zne konumunda yalnzce "whether" ile balayan ad-tmcelikler yer alabilir. (Daha nce
de nemle deindik.)
YANLI: If you pass your exam (or not) depends on your work.
DORUSU: Whether (or not) you pass your exam (or not) depends on your work.
3) Tpk dz-tmceden retilenlerde olduu gibi, sorulardan retilen ad-tmcelikler iin de nesne
konumunda kullanm ok daha yaygndr. rnekler:
- Will you be attending the meeting?
He wants to know if I will be attending the meeting.
He wanted to know if I would not be attending the meeting.
I don't know if she will be attending the meeting or not.
They're asking her whether or not she'll be attending the
meeting.

They want to know whether you'll be attending the meeting or


not.
4) Ad-tmcelik bir ilgecin (preposition) nesnesi olduunda yine "if" li yaplar kullanlamaz:
YANLI: We're very concerned about if she can manage this affair properly (or not).
DORUSU: We're very concerned about whether she can manage this affair properly (or not).

B) Soru Szckleri/bekleriyle Kurulan Sorular:


Soru szckleri yada soru szck bekleriyle kurulan soru tmcelerini bir ad-tmcelie dntrmek iin,
1) Bala, soru szc yada soru beinin kendisidir;
2) Soru tmcesi dz-tmceye evrilir.
(Neden? nk, btn bal tmceler dz-tmce olmak zorundadr! Ad-, sfat- yada zarf-tmcelik soru
biiminde olamaz!)
1. nce, bu tip sorulardan dntrlen ad-tmcelik iin zne konumunu rnekleyelim:
Q: "Why did she leave you?" A: "Why she left me is none of your business!"
Q: "What time is it?" A: "What time it is is none of your business!"
(Gryorsunuz cevaplar veren kiinin biraz huysuzluu stnde! te yandan, ikinci cevapta ardarda
gelen "is is" bir bask hatas deil: Birincisi ad-tmcelie ait, ikincisi ise toplam tmcenin asl fiili...)
Peki, u rnekleri ad-tmcelie nasl evireceiz? "Who stole the money?"... "What happened there that
night?"
YANIT: "Who" ve "What" soru szckleri, kurduklar soru tmcesinin ayn zamanda znesi
konumundadr. Bu nedenle, soruyu dz-tmceye evirince szck dizimi deimez, ayn kalr:
Q. -- Who came?
A. -- I don't know who came.

Q. -- Who stole the money?


A. -- Who stole the money is not very clear.

Q. -- Who had stolen the money?


A. -- Who had stolen the money was not very clear.

Q. -- What happened to it?


A. -- I don't know what happened to it.

Q. -- What happened there that night?


105

joshua.ranad@gmail.com

By dream_Catcher

A. -- What happened there that night is a great mystery for everyone.


2. imdi de bu tip tmceliklerin nesne konumunda kullanlmasn rnekleyelim:

Q: "Who saw her last last night?"


A: "We have no idea about who saw her last last night." (Dikkat: "who saw her last -- last night: dn gece
onu en son kim grd... Yani, bask hatas filan yok.)

Q: "Which of the two colours should I choose?"


A: "She asked herself which of the two colours she should choose."

Q: "Where has he come from?"


A: "They wondered where he had come from."

Q: "Can you tell me what time it is?"


A: "I don't really know what time it is."

Q: "What is the watch-word?"


A: "The soldier doesn't know what the watch-word is!"

Q: "Who did you buy it from?"


A: "I'm sorry, but I can't tell you who I bought it from."

Q: "Do you think that she will tell you who came here last night?"
A: "Yes, I'm sure she will." (= Yes, I think so.)

Q: "How does one do it?"

A: "Are you asking me how one does it?" (Sen mi soruyorsun bana bunun nasl yaplacan?)

Q: "How does it work?"


A: "He kept wondering how it worked." (Reported speech, indirect speech, dolayl anlatm)

EMRLERDEN AD-TMCELK
Bildiiniz gibi, emir tmcelerinin dolayl aktarm ou zaman olumlu ve olumsuz mastarlar (the
infinitive) aracl ile gerekletirilir. Bu konuyu "Dolayl Anlatm - Indirect Speech" Blmnde
ayrntlar ile ele alacaz:
"Sit down." -------- "He told me to sit down."
"Don't come back here ever again!" -------- "They told me not to go back there ever again." veya, "They
told me never to go back there again."
"Be careful with your diet." -------- "The doctor told me to be careful with my diet."
DKKAT... DKKAT...
Bir baka anlatm/aktarm yolu ise, belli fiillerin ardndan that + ad-tmcelik yapsnn kullanlmasdr:
"Be careful with your diet." --------
"The doctor suggested/advised/urged that I/you/she (should) be careful with my/your/her diet."
Bu beklenmedik anlatm kalb ileri dzeyde ngilizce rencileri iin bile artc olmaktadr. Oysa
gnlk basnda ve literatrde rnekleri hayli kalabalktr. Snavlarda da batac bir sorudur.
(NOT: Gramer snflamas olarak bu konu aslnda Blm 9'da "The Subjunctive Mood" bal altnda da
ele alnabilirdi. Ancak deneyimlerim, bunlarn "ad-tmcelikler" arasnda ele alnmasnn retim/renim
kolayl saladn gstermitir. Yine de, o Blmde de baz rnekler veriyorum.)
nce bu yapda yaygn kullanlan fiilleri listeleyelim:
advise, agree, ask (istemek), be determined (kesin kararl olmak), beg, command, demand, desire, forbid,
insist, move (nermek), recommend, request, require, stipulate (yasa, vb iin emredici olmak), suggest,
urge (acildir, gerei hemen yaplsn arsnda bulunmak)...

Not: Yukardaki sralama, yaz dili ve adal konumadan gnlk konuma ynne dorudur. Klasik
kalplardan gnmz kullanmlarna dorudur, da diyebilirsiniz. Adal deyiler, "The man whom we saw
was our long-lost friend Hsamettin"... eklinde iken, bugnk tercihimiz "The man we saw was our
long-lost friend Hsamettin" eklinde olacaktr. Tablodaki "-----" iareti, balacn tmyle
kaldrlabilecei anlamna geliyor. Bu konular ilerleyen paragraflarda ayrntlaryla irdeleyeceiz.

RNEK TMCELER
1. She is the best teacher who/that has ever taught in this school.
Tarzancas: Bugne dein en iyi retmendir ki o bu okulda ders vermitir.
Gzel Trkesi: Bugne dein bu okulda ders vermi en iyi retmendir.

Sfat-tmcelik, "who/that has (ever) taught in this school" olup, "teacher" ad-szcn niteliyor.
Balacmz kendi tmcelii yani sfat-tmcelik iinde zne ilevi tayor, yaln haldedir ve "has taught"
ekilmi fiilinin znesi durumundadr: "Ki O" anlam veriyor.
Not: stnlk (superlative -- best gibi) derecesi ile her iki bala edeer sklkta kullanlyor. Ayrca, all,
somebody, someone, anybody, anyone, nobody, no one szcklerinden sonra da, "that" kullanmnn
giderek artt sylenebilir. Ancak genelde, ve zelde ise snavlarda, "who" tercihiniz daha gvenceli
olur.
2. The man whom/who/that/"--" we saw is a professor of mine.
Tarzancas: Adam ki biz onu grdk benim bir hocamdr. Gzel Trkesi: Grdmz adam benim bir
hocamdr.
Sfat-tmlecik, "whom/who/that/"--" we saw" olup "man" ad-szcn niteliyor. Yani balacmz "Ki
Onu" anlamn tayor, Trke'deki -i halinin (= nesne) karldr, kendi tmcelii iinde nesne ilevi
tamaktadr. Sfat-tmcenin kendi ekilmi fiili olan "saw" szcnn nesnesidir: Kim grd? Biz
grdk... Kimi grdk? (Adam) ki onu grdk...
3. This was a decision which/that caused so much misery afterwards.
Tarzancas: Bir karar ite o idi ki sonralar bunca aclara yol at.
Gzel Trkesi: Sonralar bunca aclara yol aan ite bu karard.

By dream_Catcher

Buradaki sfat-tmcelik, "which/that caused so much misery afterwards" olup, bala "Ki O" anlamyla
kendi fiilinin (=caused) znesi durumundadr.
4. That was the book which/that /"--" they required us to read.
Tarzancas: Kitap ite o idi ki onu okumamz bizden istiyorlard.
Gzel Trkesi: Okumamz bizden istedikleri kitap ite o kitapt.
Buradaki sfat-tmlecik, "which/that/"--" they required us to read" olup, bala "Ki Onu" anlamyla kendi
fiilinin, yani sfat-tmcelik fiilinin nesnesi konumundadr.
Not: stnlk derecesi ile all, much, little, no, none, everything szckleri ile "which" pek kullanlmaz,
diyebiliriz:
Almost all the goods that/"--" we bought were rather reasonably priced...
This is certainly the best game that/"--" he has ever played...
5. The book is about a beautiful young woman whose husband leaves her.
Tarzancas: Kitap, gzel ve gen bir kadn (ki kocas onu terkediyor) hakknda...
Gzel Trkesi: Kitap, kocas kendisini terkeden gzel ve gen bir kadn hakknda.)
"whose husband leaves her" eklindeki sfat-tmcelik, kadna ilikin bir iyelik (mlkiyet = sahiplik: ki
onun) nitelemesinde kullanlyor.
6. I'm from a country whose past history (=the past history of which) is fully glorious.
"I'm from a country" temel tmceliktir. "Whose / of which" ile kurulan sfat-tmcelik, "country"
szcn niteleyen bir iyelik (mlkiyet) sfat konumundadr.

"-- K " BALACI


Bilindii gibi "-ki" balac Trke'ye Farsa'dan gelmitir. Ama, aradan geen bunca yzyla karn, hal
yabancdr. Aadaki iki rnekten birincisi Trke'de olanaksz bir yapdr. Nedeni ise, bizim dilimizde
sfat-tmceliin niteledii addan sonra deil, nce gelmesidir:
Adam ki o bize doru yryor Ali'nin amcasdr.
Bize doru yryen adam Ali'nin amcasdr.
te yandan, Trke'de geersiz olan bu yap, tpk Farsa gibi Hint-Avrupa dil ailesi kkenli olan
ngilizce'nin de yapsna uygundur. te bu nedenle, ngilizce sfat-tmcelik yapsn zmek iin

Trke'de rastlanan "-ki" balal yaplardan yararlanabiliriz. imdi ngilizce sfat-tmcelik balalarnn

ki o, ki onlar (zne)
ki onu, ki onlar (nesne)
that
ki o, ki onlar (zne)
ki onu, ki onlar (nesne)
of which
ki onun, ki onlarn (iyelik)

Not: Nesne konumundaki fiilin Trke karl "-i" hali yerine, kimi fiillerde rnein "-e" halini geerlik
kazanabilir: Ki ona, ki onlara, gibi. rnek: The man (whom/who/that) we paid a visit to was a teacher of
mine. = Kendisine ziyarette bulunduumuz kii (=kii ki ona bir ziyarette bulunduk) benim bir
retmenimdi. Bu konuya az sonra ilge-bala ilikisinde ayrntlaryla deineceiz.
TAM TMCENN OLUTURULMASI: imdi, iinde bir (yada daha ok) sfat-tmcelik yer alan tam
bir tmcenin oluturulmasn iki aamada irdeleyelim:

1 -- ADLARIN NTELENNE RNEKLER


1. the man who is walking toward us = bize doru yrmekte olan adam (adam ki o yryor bize doru...)
2. Ali Bey, who works for the Foreign Office, = Ali Bey, ki kendisi Dileri Bakanlnda alyor (Ali
Bey, ki o alr Dileri Bakanlnda -- Yeniden nitelemee gerek duymadmz tandk bir kimse
olduu iin iki virgl arasnda. Bu konuya daha ilerde tanmlayc olan ve olmayan sfat tmcelii
konusunda ayrntlaryla deineceiz.)
3. the man (whom) we met = tantmz adam (adam ki onunla biz tantk -- Nesne konumunda olan
balacn ou zaman tmyle kaldrldn unutmaynz.)
4. tables which are round = yuvarlak olan masalar (masalar ki onlar yuvarlaktr)

6. the most powerful sultan that had ever sat on the throne = o gne dein tahta km olan en gl
padiah (en gl padiah ki o gne dein kmt tahta... ever = "tm zamanlarda" anlamn katar)
7. the man (that) I love = sevdiim adam (adam ki onu ben seviyorum -- Nesne konumundaki balacn
ou zaman tmyle kaldrldn unutmaynz.)
8. the man whose wife is suspected to be a spy = karsnn casus olduundan phelenilen adam (adam ki
onun karsnn pheleniliyor casus olduundan)
9. a song the title of which I keep forgetting (= whose title) = adn hep unuttuum bir ark (bir ark ki
onun adn ben hep unuturum)

2 -- TMCELERN OLUTURULMASI

te yukardaki ekilde oluturduunuz sfat-tmcelik, ikinci aamada belli bir tam tmce iindeki yerini
bulacak, rnein tmcedeki zne yada nesneyi nitelemekte kullanlacaktr:
The man who is walking towards us is my uncle...
Ali Bey, who works for the Foreign Office, speaks English fluently.
We didn't like the man (whom) we met there...
Tables which are round are rather expensive...
Everybody thought him to be the most powerful sultan that had ever sat on the throne...
I would never betray the man I love...
The police want to interview the man whose wife is suspected to be a spy...
He was singing that same song, the title of which I keep forgetting... (whose title I keep forgetting.)

Demek ki burada sfat-tmcelik, "Hangi kimseler? Nasl kimseler?" sorusuna, temel bir tanmlama ile
yant veriyor ve vazgeilmezlik tayor.
Bu tr "tanmlayc" sfat tmcelikleri, tmceden karlamaz. Konumada bu ilevi vurgulayan bir
tonlama yaplr; yazl biimde virglsz kullanlrlar.
2. zel bir belirleyici, tanmlayc ilevi olmayan, fazladan ek bilgi veren sfat-tmcelik ise iki virgl
arasna alnr. Unutmaynz: ngilizce'de bu ekilde kullanlan iki virgl, ayra (=parantez) anlam tar.
Bu tr bir tmcelik, istenirse tmceden ekip karlabilir; ayr bir tmce halinde ifade edilebilir (kk
bir iki ilemle).
Konumada da, bu "antirparantez" anlamna uygun bir ses ve ton deitirimi uygulanr.
rnekse:
Nazm Hikmet, whose birthplace was stanbul, spent his last years in Moscow...
Ka tane Nazm Hikmet var ki? Eer bu tmceyi virglsz yazacak olursanz, anlam u garip kla
brnr:
Doum yeri stanbul olan Nazm Hikmet son yllarn Moskova'da geirdi, teki Nazm Hikmetler ise (!!)
baka yerlerde geirdiler !!!
3. Kurallara dikkat:
Virgll (yani, tanmlayc olmayan) sfat-tmceliklerde:
a) Bala kaldrlamaz, kullanlmak zorundadr;
b) Bala olarak "that" kullanlamaz...
4. Biliyorsunuz dil, yaz ile deil, konuma ile balamtr. Bu bakmdan virgl uygulamas, konumadaki
tonlama farklln karlayacak bir yazm uygulamasndan baka birey deildir. Konumada, bunlar bir
"antirparantez" havas, ekleme edas, ek bir bilgi veriliyor tonlamasyla belli edilir.
5. Anadili Trke olan bizler iin nemli bir ipucu ise, "tanmlayc olmayan", yani "virgll" sfattmceliklerin Trke'ye, "--ki balal" tmcelerle eviri vermee yatkn olmalardr.
Tersinden gidip, u iki tmceyi ngilizce'ye evirelim. Birincisi virglsz, ikincisi virgll olmak
zorunda:
Umarm polis antan alan adam yakalar.
I hope the police will get the man who stole your briefcase.

Amcam, ki kendisi 70 yandadr, hal sk bir sporcudur.


My uncle, who is seventy years of age, is still a keen sportsman.

We've got no ammunition left, which probably means we'll have to fight on using our bayonets and bare

ZARF-TMCELN TMCE NDEK YER


A) Tmce banda: ngilizce'de tmce ba daha vurguludur. Tmcelikler vurgulamak amacyla baa
alnabilir. Vurgu, konumada tonlama ile belli edilir. Yazda ise tmcelikten sonra genellikle virgl
konur:
When we got out of the building, we found that they were gone.
B) Tmce sonunda: Zarf-tmcelik olaan durumda tmce sonunda yer alacaktr. Bu konumda yazda
genellikle virgl kullanlmaz:
We found that they had left before we got out of the building.
C) Tmce iinde: Gerek kendisinden nce gerek kendisinden sonra birer virglle ayrlmaldr.
Biliyorsunuz ng. yaz dilinde iki virgl arasna alnmak genelde ayra=parantez anlam verir.
te yandan, bir aklama niteliinde, tire de kullanlabilir. Tireden nce ve sonra boluk braklr. Bunlar,
kitap basksnda uzun tire, daktilo klavye yazsnda ise ift tire eklindedir. Konumada da "antirparantez"
tarz bir tonlama yaplr:
We, when we went out, found that they had already left.
Our loyalty -- as long as we live -- shall neither fail nor falter!!
D) Tmce sonunda: Ama, bu kez, yazda virgl ile ayrlmak, konumada ise buna kout bir tonlama
kullanmak (bir anlk duraksama) kouluyla. Bu konumdaki zarf-tmcelik sonradan akla gelivermi, yada
belki tereddtle eklediimiz yeni bir tmce gibidir. Nitekim, ana-tmcelik ile anlam bants bir hayli
zayf da olabilir:
They came to help us at last, (ahem... err... um...) even though it was quite clear that they weren't very
willing to do so! = Sonunda yardma geldiler -- geri bu konuda pek gnll olmadklar da belli
oluyordu ya !

TANIM VE SINIFLAMA
Koul kipinde bir tmce, bir ana-tmcelik + bir koul-tmcelik'ten (if'li tmcelik, conditional clause)
oluur. Koullu tmceler aslnda zarf-tmcelik snflamasna girer. Ancak yaygn kullanm alan,
tadklar nem, ve biz Trke konuanlar asndan gsterdikleri kavram gl nedeniyle ayrcalk
tanmamz gerekiyor...
Koul kipini ana balk altnda gzden geireceiz:
I. TP: GELECEK ZAMAN = FUTURE CONDITIONAL
If I go there, I will see her.
Eer (gelecekte) gidersem / gidecek olursam, (gelecekte) grrm / greceim.
Gelecekte, belli bir koula bal olarak, gerekleebilir veya gereklemeyebilir... demek istiyoruz.
II. TP: MDK ZAMAN, GEN ZAMAN = PRESENT CONDITIONAL
If I went there, I would see her.
Eer (genelde yada imdi) gitsem, (genelde yada imdi) grrm.
= Gitmezsem de grmem... Gitmediim iin gremiyorum... Ksacas, varsaylan, farazi bir durumda
neler olur, neler olmaz stne fikir yrtyoruz. "Ninemin sakal olsa, dedem olur..."
III. TP: GEM ZAMANLAR = PAST CONDITIONAL
If I had gone there, I would have seen her.
Eer (gemite) gitseydim / gitmi olsaydm, (gemite) grrdm / grecektim / grm olurdum.
= Ama gitmedim, dolaysyla da grmedim... Olay olmu bitmi. Koul gereklememi. Buna bal
olarak da, szn ettiimiz olaslk da gereklememi. Ksacas, olayn ardndan fikir yrtyoruz:
"Ninemin sakal olmu olsayd..."

KOUL TMCELERNN YAPISI


Kitaplarda koul tmcelerinin yapsn aklamak amacyla verilen ou forml, konuyu yokua srmek,
hatta yanltc olmaktan ileri gitmiyor. Szgelii, II Tip tmceleri "past tense + past conditional" eklinde
aklarsak, renciyi bu yapnn present anlam tadna nasl inandrabiliriz ki...

NEML NOT: Olanak ve olaslk bizim kltrmzde kesin farklarla ayrt edilemiyor, ama ngilizce'de

ngilizcede koul kipi iin zel ekimler yoktur. Bu ilev, haber kipinden dn alnan ekimlerle
karlanr. Ancak, szkonusu ekimler her iki kipte farkl anlamlar kazanyor. rnein, "I go" haber
kipinde "Giderim", koul kipinde ise "Gideceim" anlamn tayor. Ayn ekilde, "I went" haber kipinde
"gittim", ama "if I went" koul kipinde "gitsem, gidersem" (yani imdi veya genelde) anlamn tayor.
Benim nl bir "kant" hikayem vardr: Bizim Olann hocas, "cushion" [ku-n] szcn "kan"
diye retmekte direniyordu da, "Git syle, kendisi kansn" diye haber gndermek zorunda kalmtm!...
Burada da artk gnah benden gitti. Bu lkede medya ve yaynevi. evirmenlerinin slah olabileceini hi
sanmyorum ama, ltfen siz Deerli Okuyucularm kendinizi onlarn srdrdkleri bu ok kt yanltan
kendinizi koruyunuz...

Unutmaynz:
I wish you were here now!... I wish we were together again!...
gibi romantik szler syleyince,
Ah, imdi yanmda olsan! Yine birlikte olsak...
demi oluyorsunuz, yoksa "keke eskiden yle olmu olsayd" deil !...

ZEL EKM RNE


Buraya kadar neyi vurguladk? Koul kipinin kendine zg ekimleri yoktur; Haber kipinden dn
alnan kalplar, yeni bir "tense" dzenlenmesi yklenerek kullanlr... Akla u soru geliyor: Acaba
ingilizce koul kipinin kendine zg hibir ekim zellii yok mudur?
Evet, vardr:
To Be fiili, yalnz Tip II ile snrl olmak zere, zel ekim gsterir ve btn kiiler iin were eklinde
ekilir.
Dolaysyla, Damdaki Kemanc'nn dlerinde olduu gibi,

"Were" yerine" "was" kullanacak olursanz, tmceyi "imdiki zamanda olaslk" boyutundan karp,
haber kipi gemi zaman boyutuna tam olursunuz. Buradaki nans, Trke dndmz srece
hissetmek olanakszdr, diyebilirim, ama bu sizi yanltmasn...
Diyeceklerdir ki, "Were" yerine" "was", kimi sosyal tabaka azlarnda standart uygulama gibi grnyor.
(Bu yzden kimi dilbilimciler, gnmzde "were" yerine "was" ynnde bir dnm olduu sonucuna
varyorlar.)
ok aceleci bir sav... "yi ve doru" ngilizce asndan bu kullanm yanltr. Hele snav koullarnda

Haber kipindeki bu tmce, 1) Oraya gitmek istemiyorum... Onu grmek istemiyorum! veya, 2) Her zaman

EVR STNE BR NOT


Trke'de "eer" ile balayan tmcelik, yani koul tmcelii (yine Trke'deki btn zarf tmcelikleri
gibi) herzaman tmce banda yer alr. Koulu nplana karmak, vurgulamak istiyorsak, bunu tonlama
ile gerekletiririz.
ngilizce'de ise, aada greceimiz gibi, if'li tmceliin yeri esnektir ve koul vurgulanmak
istenildiinde baa alnr.
Dikkat edilirse, anadili Trke olan bizler ngilizce'ye eviri yaparken veya zgn tmce kurarken,
herzaman "if" ile balamak eilimindeyiz. Oysa, yukardaki saptamalara dikkat etmemiz gerekiyor.

NOKTALAMA ZELL
If-tmcelik (yani, koul) vurgulanmak istenirse baa ekilir; ardndan virgl konularak ana-tmcelikten
ayrlr.
Bunun tersine durumda, yani if-tmcelik arkadan geliyorsa, virgl kullanlmaz.
Ancak, deiik vurgular elde etmek amacyla, ana-tmcelik anlama uygun bir yerinden blnerek araya
da yerletirilebilir, ki bu durumda iki virgl arasna alnmas gerekecektir.
Bu nc durumda if-tmcelik, konumada uygun bir "antirparantez sylyorum" edas ile
desteklenecektir.

FARKLI YARDIMCI FL KULLANIMLARI


rneklerimizi bu noktaya dein will/would ile verdik. Oysa bu balamda teki btn yardmc fiiller de
kullanlabilir. Farkl tercihler deiik anlam nanslarn beraberinde getirecektir:
If the fog gets any thicker, the game will / may / might be postponed.
= "Will" kesin bir ertelemeden sz ederken, dier ikisi erteleme olasln gndeme getiriyor. "Might"
tercihi, olasln daha dk olacan dile getirir.
You must / should / ought to / had better eat less bread if you want to lose some weight.
= rnein "must" = "daha az yemelisin" evirisini verirken, had better ile yaplan tmce ise "az yersen
senin iin daha iyi olur" nerisini n plana karyor.
If you see him tomorrow, (could you) please ask him to get in touch with me before it's too late?
= Rica... Talep...
If you tried again, you would / might / could / /should succeed.
= Bir daha denersen / deneyecek olursan... would = kesin baarrsn... might = byle bir olaslk doar...
could = olanak kazanr... should = baarsan gerekir, sanrm baaracaksndr...

TP II VE TP III BRLKTE
Sz edilen eylem ve olasln farkl zaman dilimlerine ilikin olmalar durumunda, Tip II ve III
tmcelikler birlikte kullanlacaktr:
If he didn't gamble so much (= genelde), he could have become a very rich man by now (= bugne dein
gemite)... ok kumar oynar. Eer bu kadar ok kumar oynamasa, imdiye dein oktan zengin bir adam
olurdu.
If you hadn't spent all your money yesterday, you would have enough today... Eer dn (gemi zaman

You say he is sorry. But, if he were sorry, he would have apologized by now... Piman diyorsun, ama eer
piman olsa, imdiye dein zr dilemi olmas gerekirdi... (= demek ki piman deil, anlamn
karyoruz.)
Demek ki, tmcemizi oluturan iki tmcelikte farkl zaman dilimlerinden sz ediliyorsa bunun gereini
tip seiminde uygulamak zorundayz. Burada kural inemiyor, tam tersine kurala uygun davranyoruz.

IF-TMCELKTE YARDIMCI FL
Blm banda temel formllerimizi olutururken, if-tmcelikte yardmc fiillerin yer almayacan,
bunlarn ana-tmcelik iinde deerlendirileceini sylemitik. Ayrntlarda boulmadan, pratik ve
kestirme yoldan hzl renmeyi amaladmz iin, saptamalarmzn biraz fazla atak olmas doal
karlanmaldr.
Orada deindiimiz bu "kaba" kuraln hayli kabark olan istisnalar nasl aklanabilir?
If you will/would wait a moment, I'll go and see if Mr. Hepalr is free to see you...
Bu bir nezaket ifadesidir. Tmceye, "If you (please) wait..." eklinde de balayabilirdik. Yani burada
"will/would" birer nezaket szc olmaktan te gitmiyor. Anlam incelendiinde, aslnda bir koul
koulmad grlr: "Eer beklerseniz gidip bakarm, beklemezseniz gidip bakmam" eklinde bir koul
tmcesi olarak alglanmas yanl olur.
Aadaki rnekleri de ayn irdeleme ile zgleyebiliriz. Bunlardan birincisinde nezaket, son ikisinde ise
serzeni/fke iletimleri szkonusu:
I would be very grateful if you would send me the necessary documents as soon as possible. = ...
minnettar olurum efendim.
If you would sit down, gentlemen, we can begin our discussion. = Beyler! Beyler! Ltfen oturunuz ki
tartmamza balayabilelim!
If you would stop talking for a second, I could finish off my sentence. = Bir saniye susacak olursanz,
cmlemi bitirebilirim!

"TP- 0" VE "TP- 4" VAR MIDIR ?


u rnekleri inceleyiniz:
Present Tense : If you heat ice, it turns to water... If there is a shortage of any product, its price is bound
to go up... (zellikle bilimsel saptamalarda bu tmce yaps ile ok sk karlarz.)

Past Tense : We used to stay at home if there was the slightest chance of rain... If ever anybody
interrupted his lecture, he got (used to get / would get) terribly angry...
Kimi yazarlar, "if" szcyle kurulduklar gerekesiyle, bu tr tmceleri szde "Tip-0" ve "Tip-4"
balklar ile Koul Kipi iinde snflamak ister.
Oysa bu tr tmcelerin genel zellii, gerek durumlardan sz edilmekte oluudur: Buz stlrsa suya
dnr... Hernezaman birisi dersini kesecek olsa ok sinirlenirdi...
Dikkat ederseniz bu tmcelerde "if - if ever" yerine "when - whenever" tercihinizi rahatlkla
kullanabilirsiniz ve anlam bozulmaz. Gerek durumlardan sz ettiinize gre, bunlarn Haber Kipi
kapsamnda grlmeleri gerekir. Koul Kipinin temel zellii varsaymsal, farazi durumlardan sz
ediliyor olmasdr.
NOT: Yine de, "piyasada" "were yerine dikkatsizce was" kullanmnn yaygnl karsnda, bu Blmde
savunduum tezlerin "arbal gramer" ve zellikle de "snav ngilizcesi" hari tutulursa %100 geerlii
olmayabileceini teslim etmekte yarar var. nk, bir yandan dilcilikte betimleyici (descriptive)
yaklam savunurken, bir yandan da dil polisliine soyunup, anadilini konuan kimseleri dikkatsizlikle
sulamak yrek ister...

IF-TMCELKTE "ANY" VE "SOME"


Bilindii gibi, some ve any ikilisine ilikin genel kural, birincisinin olumlu, ikincisinin ise olumsuz
tmceler ve sorularda kullanlmasdr.
If-tmceliklerde ise, bunun tersine bir uygulama geerli olabilir ve bu tercih ou zaman vurgulanm
anlatm nitelii kazanr:
Wouldn't I help you out if I had any means to do so? = Bunu yapabilecek imkanlarm olsa seni bu
durumdan kurtarmaz mym sanyorsun!
I would never have allowed you to enter if you hadn't had some kind of reasonable excuse! = Akla yatkn
bir mazeretiniz olmasayd, ieri girmenize asla izin vermezdim...

DEVRK TMCE TPLER


DKKAT... DKKAT...
Daha nce de deindiimiz gibi, if-tmcelik baa alndnda koul vurgulanm olur. Ancak, elimizde bir
baka vurgulama olana daha var: Devrik tmce oluturmak. Devrik tmce, biliyorsunuz, soru dzeninde
kurulur. (Yani, yard. fiil + zne... bazen de: asl fiil + zne.)

163

joshua.ranad@gmail.com

Kurulur, ama bir soru olarak alglanmaz: Yazda soru iareti deil, nlem veya dorudan nokta kullanlr;
konumada soru tonlamas yaplmaz: Balama gre, eitli vurgulanm duygu ve anlamlar ileten bir
tonlama yaplr.

TP I :
If you should -------- Should you
Should you come this way again, please look me up.
Yolunuz bir daha bu taraflara decek olursa, ltfen beni araynz. (Gelecek zaman, yani Tip-1
kullanldn temel-tmcelikten karsyoruz. Ricann gerei gelecekte yerine getirilecektir. [Umarm
hala "should", herzaman "shall" in past tense'dir gibi yanlglar iinde deilsiniz.]

TP II :
If I were -------- Were I
If he went away -------- Were he to go away
If you stopped & thought -------- Did you but stop & think
Were I in your shoes, I wouldn't take such a risk. = Senin yerinde olsam, byle bir risk almam.
Were he to go away and leave you, you'd be in a very difficult position. = ekip gitse ve seni terketse,
ok zor bir durumda kalrsn.
Did you but stop and think about it, you'd see how hopeless our situation is. = Durup bir dnsen,
durumumuzun ne denli umutsuz olduunu grrsn.

TP III :
If it had been -------- Had it been
If she had lost -------- Were she to have lost
If she could have arrived -------- Could she have arrived
Had it been any harder, we wouldn't have been able to do it. = Eer daha zor olmu olsayd...
Were she to have lost all her money, she would have been terribly upset. = Eer btn parasn kaybetmi

Gerek Tip II, gerekse Tip III iin ikinci rnek tmceler "were + ...." yaps ile balyor. Birincisini
present, ikincisini past anlaml klan nedir?
Yant: Birincisi bir present mastar, ikincisi ise bir perfect mastar ile oluturuldu: To lose = kaybetmek...
To have lost = kaybetmi olmak... Perfect mastar kullanm, olay gemi zamana tayor.

KOUL KPNDE KULLANILAN TEK KM BALALAR


unless : "Unless" anlam molekl iki anlam atomundan oluur: if + not... Dolaysyla, "unless" ile kurulan
bir tmcelikte ayrca "not" olumsuzuna rastlayamazsnz, nk bildiiniz gibi ngilizce'de "double
negative" tmce kurulamaz. "Unless" iin Trke'de: -medike, -madka olaan eviridir.
Not 1 -- ngilizce'deki "double negative" eksikliinin, "didn't fail + mastar" forml ile nasl
alabildiinden Kitabmzn "Mastarlar" Blmnde sz etmitik.

Supposing there were no water, what would the world be like? = Diyelim ki dnyada hi su olmasa, ne

Biliyorsunuz bu tmcenin Trke ifadesinde, yine present/genel anlaml olmak zere "olmasayd/ne
olurdu" demek mmkn. Ama "past tense" yanlgsna dmemeniz iin, yukarda verdiim eviriyi tercih
ettim... Kendimizi, "Tip II eittir Past tense" gibi ykc yanllklardan kurtarmak ite bunun iin ok

But for his love for irin, the ordeals he went through would have been unbearable for Ferhat. (ordeals =

3) If he had taken my advice, he would have been a rich man by now... "By now," yani, imdiye dein =
Gemiten sz ediyoruz, o halde TP III.
4) If he had taken my advice, he would be a rich man now... "Now" = imdiki zamanda bir olaslktan sz
ediyoruz, o halde Tip II... Bknz. Tip II ve III birlikte kullanm.

gzel bir kz olur... Geni zaman = Tip II.
6) I didn't know whether you had to have one of these or not. I would have given it to you freely if you
had had to have one... Bunlardan birisine sahip olmak zorunda olup olmadn bilmiyordum. Eer sahip
olmak zorunda idiysen ("idiydiysen") sana bir tane ylesine / bedavacktan veriverirdim... Kullandmz
fiil bei: "have to have" = birincisi yardmc fiil, ikincisi asl fiil, yani, "sahip olmak zorunda olmak"...
Fiilimiz rnein, "have to go", yani "gitmek zorunda olmak," olsayd = "had had to go," diyecektik.
Dolaysyla Tip III = "had had to have."
7) You would have to pay less now if you had decided to become a full member at the time... = Eer o
zamanlar tam ye olmaa karar vermi olsaydn, imdi daha az deme yapmak zorunda kalacaktn.
(Gemi iin Tip III, imdiki zaman iin Tip II kullanld.)
8) I'm sure she would have come and seen me if she had had the time... Eminim ki zaman olsa gelip beni
grrd... Gemite = III. Tip. Fiilimiz, To have. rnein, fiilimiz "to see" olsayd, "had seen" diyecektik.
O halde, "had had."
9) If I were you, I wouldn't buy that old car.
10) If the fog gets any thicker, they might have to decide to cancel the game altogether... Tmyle iptal
etmek... Gelecekteki bir olaslktan sz ediyoruz. Dolaysyla Tip I. "May" yerine "might" tercihi
olasln daha dk olduunu gsteriyor. Bknz. If-tmcelikte yardmc fiiller.
11) If you really want to lose some weight, you had better eat less bread... "Had better," tpk
may/can/must gibi bir yardmc fiildir, onlar gibi kullanlr.
12) I'm terrified of planes. I'd feel much safer if we were going by boat... Tmceden u anda uaa
binmek zere yada uakta olduumuz anlalyor. "u anda gemiyle gidiyor olsak kendimi daha
emniyette hissederdim." = Present anlaml olduundan = Tip II.

14) Unless you ring the bell twice, nobody will answer it... Gelecek zaman = Tip I.
15) Should there be any delay, please notify us at once... "Notify us" emrinin gerei gelecek zamanda
gerekleecektir. Dolaysyla, Tip I. Ayrca, bknz. "Devrik Tipler".

Gemi zaman iin Tip III, imdiki zaman iin Tip II.
18) If he didn't gamble as much as he does, I'm sure he would have been quite rich by now. Her zaman
kumar oynad anlalyor. Genelde, yani Tip II, bu kadar ok kumar oynamasa, imdiye dein, yani
gemiten gnmze zengin olmu olurdu = Tip III.
19) If it hadn't been for their help, we wouldn't be here now. Gemite bize yardm ettiler = Tip III. Yoksa
imdi burada olmazdk = Tip II.
20) I'll help you provided that you promise to be more careful from now on. From now on = Bugnden
itibaren, yani gelecekte = Tip I.
21) As everyone knows, she's a hopeless case. Always and ever. I should have married her if she weren't
such a fool... Herkesin bildii gibi, umutsuz vakadr. Herzaman byledir kendisi... Bylesine bir budala
olmasa = Tip II, imdiye dein oktan onunla evlenmi olurdum = Tip III.
22) If I had known about the cancelation beforehand, I wouldn't have bought a ticket in the first place...
ptal konusunu nceden renmi olsaydm, daha iin banda bilet almazdm, almam olurdum.
23) If I hadn't missed that plane, I would be dead now.... Eer o ua karmam olsaydm -- ki kardm
= Tip III -- u anda lm olacaktm.. u anda l deil, konuuyor olduuma gre Tip II.
24) Were she to appear here suddenly, wouldn't you be greatly surprised? Tmcenin ikinci blmnden
imdiki zamana ilikin bir belirleme yapld anlalyor: Anszn ortaya kverse, ok arr msn?
25) Were you to have been sent on your own for this difficult mission, you should have had a perfect right
to protest. Tmcenin ikinci blmnden gemi zamana ilikin bir belirleme yapld anlalyor. Koul
tmcelii gemi zamana atmak iin perfect mastar kullandk: "to have been sent" = "gnderilmi
olmak"... Tmcenin anlam: Eer bu zor grev iin tek bana gnderilmi olsaydn, ikayet etmek iin
pekala hakl bir sebebin olabilirdi... ma edilen anlam: Ama tek bana gnderilmedin, ikayet etmek iin
de hakl bir nedenin yok...

DLEK - KOUL KP
THE SUBJUNCTIVE MOOD
BU BLMN KONULARI
Ksa Aklama / ki Ana Balk / Kalplar / rnekler ve evirileri / Gelitirilmi Bir rnek / Zamana
Bak As / Baka rnekler ve evirileri / Bu Kip ada ngilizce'de lyor mu? / Exercise - 1 /
Exercise - 2 / Exercise - 3 / Dier rnekler

KISA AIKLAMA
Az sayda kalp ieren bu kip, yine de ngilizce'nin en ilek ve en ilgin -- yabanclarn da en ok glk
ektii ynlerinden birini oluturuyor. lgi alanmz imdi dilek ve isteklerin, neri ve gerekirliklerin,
hayflanmalarn, varsaymlarn dnyasdr.
Aslnda, Trke yazlan bir ngilizce gramerde, "the subjunctive mood" karlnda "varsaym kipi" gibi
bir deyim kullanmak en dorusu olurdu. Ancak, yeni bir terim kargaasna yol amamak iin, yerlemi
olan "dilek kipi, dilek-koul kipi" karln kullanmaa devam edeceim. Aslnda, gerekten de,
ngilizce'de bu kipte kurulan anlatmlarn nemli bir blm Trke'ye bizdeki "dilek kipi" ile eviri
verir.
te yandan, eitli kalplarn ierdii anlamlar birbirinden son derece farkldr ve yap zellii dnda
aralarnda bir anlamsal ba aramamak en dorusu olur... Yap asndan ise herhangi bir glk
ekeceinizi sanmyorum, nk koul kipi tmcelere tam bir koutluk gsteriyorlar.
Az saydaki tmce al kalbn aklnzda tutmanz kouluyla, tannmas ve kullanlmas son derece
kolay bir konu...
Ksaca zetlemek istersek: ngilizce'de fiil ekimlerinden yola karak yalnzca kip (= mood)
bulunduu sylenebilir:
The indicative, the subjunctive, the imperative srasyla,
1. gereklerin dnyas (insanlar ou zaman yalan sylyor veya yanlyor olsalar da);
2. dilek, koul ve varsaymlarn dnyas; ve,
3. buyruklarn dnyasn ierir...
Koul kipinde de kullanlan ekimler "subjunctive" ekimlerdir. Tadklar byk nem nedeniyle, koul
ve dilek kipini bu kitapta iki ayr blmde ele almay tercih ettiimi daha nce de vurgulamtm. Demek
ki aslnda, "subjunctive mood" ekimlerini sizler bir nceki blmde esasen renmi bulunuyorsunuz.

imdi konuyu iki ana balk altnda zetleyeceim:

RNEKLER VE EVRLER
I wish I were rich... Ah, zengin olsam / olsaydm; Keke zengin biri olsam / olsaydm... ["imdi" ve/veya
"genelde" anlam veriyor, yani, = Ah, u anda (veya genelde) ok param olsa / olsayd... demi oluyoruz.
Skc olmak pahasna tekrarlyorum: Trke'ye "olsaydm" ile evirdiimizde de kastedilen zaman
"imdiye kadar, gemite" deildir: Kastedilen "imdi ve genel zaman" dr.]
I wish I hadn't said all that... Keke btn bunlar sylememi olsaydm... [te bu gemie ynelik bir
laf... "Oysa syledim ve bundan pimanlk duyuyorum, sonularn yaadm veya yayorum..." demi
oluyoruz.]
I'd rather you didn't do it now... Bunu imdi yapmamanz tercih ederim. Ltfen bunu imdi yapmaynz.
I'd rather you hadn't told him about our plans... Keke planlarmz ona anlatmasaydn... Anlatmam
olman tercih ederdim. [Ama anlattn, ne yazk ki]
If only you loved me a little !... Keke beni biraz sevsen, seviyor olsan... [Ama sevmiyorsun ki]
If only you had loved me a little !... Keke beni biraz sevmi olsaydn... [Ama sevmedin ki, sevmemitin
ki]
If only I had realized all that at the time... Keke btn bunlar o zamanlar kafama dank etseydi. [Ama
zamannda uyanamadm / dnemedim ve btn bunlar bama geldi]
Suppose she came late tomorrow !... Ya yarn gecikecek olursa ! [Evet, yanl grmyorsunuz: "came" ve
"tomorrow" bir arada! Haber kipindeki kurallar ile dnmeyi braknz artk. Burada farkl bir alandayz
ve kurallar da kknden farkl...]
Suppose she were here now, would you have the nerve to say this to her face ?... u anda kendisi bizimle
burada olsa (olsayd), bunu onun yzne syleyecek cesaretin, cretin olur mu (olur muydu) ?...
Suppose she had come late yesterday !... Ya dn gecikmi olsayd ! [= Geri gecikmedi, ama -- aman
Allahm -- ya gecikmi olsayd !]
It's time we all went home... Haydi, hepimizin eve gitme zamanmz geldi.
Don't you think it's high time you did some work (= got some work done) for your mid-terms ?... Sence
de ara snavlarn iin biraz alma zamann oktan gelmedi mi?
It was time you had had a haircut. I'm glad you've had one... San kestirme zamann gelmi geiyordu.
Kestirmi olduuna sevindim.
I'd just as soon you didn't take those important papers with you... Bu nemli evrak yannda gtrmemeni
tercih ederim...
Would to God you gave up that dirty habit !... Keke [Tanrdan dilerim ki] u pis alkanl braksan !
[imdi ve gelecekte]
Would to God you had given it up years ago !... Keke [Tanrdan dilerdim ki] yllarca nce brakm

Would to God you had been a better husband to me all these years !... Tanrdan dilerdim, bunca yldr
bana daha iyi bir koca olabilseydin ! [= Ama, olamadn...]

GELTRLM BR RNEK
Bu konuyu daha iyi zmlemek iin, rnein " as if " kalb ile aada gelitirdiim iki kullanm
olasln irdeleyelim:
A) He speaks English as if he is an American.
Bu tmcenin anlam evirisi = Konumasna baklacak olursa, sanrm kendisi Amerikal... ( Gerek
durumdan dolay The Indicative Mood, yani haber kipini kullandk)
B) He speaks English as if he were an American.
Bu tmce iki deiik anlam veriyor olabilir = Bravo dorusu, Amerikal olmamasna karn ok gzel
ngilizce konuuyor... Veya, Numara yapyor, Amerikal filan deil !!
Ancak, "B" Maddesinin olas her tr anlamnda gerek d bir durumdan sz edildii iin, "The
Subjunctive Mood" devreye giriyor, ve "sanki, gya" kavram pekitiriliyor.

ZAMANA BAKI AISI


Yine bu noktada, daha nce eitli konu balklar altnda ayrntl biimde deindiimiz ikili bak asn
yeniden irdeleyelim: Hatrlarsak:
1) imdiki zaman, geni zaman, gelecek zaman kapsamnda "present" kalplar; gemie dnk
bildirimlerde ise "perfect" kalplar kullanlr, demitik
2) Ama present veya perfect seiminin, iinde yaadmz an asndan deil, tmcede sz edilen
zamanlarn birbirleri ile olan ilikisi asndan ekilleneceini de eklemitik
imdi buradaki duruma bakalm:
I wish you were here... Ah, imdi burada olsan... [Present kalp kullanarak, u an iin bir dilek diliyoruz:
Koul ve Dilek kiplerinde "were" ekiminin present anlam verdiini unutmaynz]
I wish you had been here last night... Ah, dn gece burada olsaydn... [Perfect kalp kullanarak, iinde
bulunduumuz an itibariyle gemiteki bir durumdan sz ediyoruz]

Last night, I wished you were there with me... Dn gece, orada benimle olman diledim, diliyordum;
keke orada ve benimle olsaydn; "keke yanmda olsa" diyordum... ["Wished" ekimi ile olay dn
geceye tadk; ardndan "present subjunctive" kullanarak gemiteki o noktada, yine o an ilgilendiren bir
dilek dileimizden sz ediyoruz]
I wished last night that we had met before... Dn gece, "keke daha nceleri tanm olsaydk" diye
dndm... ["Wished" ekimi ile gemiteki bir noktadan, "perfect subjunctive" kullanarak da o
noktann daha ncesine ynelik bir dileimizden sz etmi olduk]
DKKAT...DKKAT...
Deerli okuyucular... Tekrar tekrar dile getirdiim bu konunun nemini ne derece vurgulasam azdr.
Bilinen gramer kitaplarnda bulamayacanza birka kez deindim. nk bu kitaplar anadili ngilizce
olan kimseler tarafndan yazlmtr (bizdekilerse, iyi yada kt, hep eviridir) ve yabanclar "suda
yaayan balklarn suda yaadklarn bilmemeleri" misali, bizlerin glklerimizi anlayamamlardr.
Yllar boyunca "zel" ders verirken sorulara muhatap olmasaydm (nk okullarda renciler soru
sormaz!!), bu konunun ayrdna herhalde ben de varamazdm.
Ancak imdi btn bu vnme ve dvnmeler bir yana, sizden btn dikkatinizle konuya eilmenizi rica
ediyorum...
Sizlere aklamal 6 temel rnek vereceim: Bunlar srasyla, present, past ve future tense kullanlan
ikier tmce... Herbirisi zamana kendi bak asndan yaklaarak, present/perfect seimini kendisi
yapyor ve ikier farkl tmce oluuyor. Ltfen dikkatle inceleyiniz. Meseleyi reneceksiniz.
Balayalm:
* * * * *
PRESENT TMCELER: Temel tmcelik bildiiniz 4 present tense'ten herhangi birisi olabilir: He talks...
He is talking... He has talked... He has been talking... Birincisi ile rnekliyorum:
He talks about Bodrum as if he went there often... Bodrum'dan sanki oraya sk sk gidermi/gidiyormu
gibi sz eder/ediyor...
He talks about Bodrum as if he had been there himself... Bodrum'dan sanki kendisi oraya gitmimi
(kendisi bulunmumu) gibi sz eder/ediyor...
* * * * *
PAST TMCELER: Temel tmcelik bildiiniz 4 past tense'ten herhangi birisi olabilir: He talked... He
was talking... He had talked... He had been talking... Birincisi ile rnekliyorum:
He talked about Bodrum as if he went there often... Bodrum'dan sanki sk sk gidermi/gidiyormu gibi
sz etti/ediyordu...
He talked about Bodrum as if he had been there himself... Bodrum'dan sanki kendisi oraya gitmimi
(kendisi bulunmumu) gibi sz etti/ediyordu...
* * * * *

177

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

FUTURE TMCELER: Temel tmcelik bildiiniz 4 future tense'ten herhangi birisi olabilir: He will
talk... He will be talking... He will have talked... He will have been talking... Birincisi ile rnekliyorum:
He will talk about Bodrum as if he went there often... Bodrum'dan sanki sk sk gidermi/gidiyormu gibi
sz edecektir...
He will talk about Bodrum as if he had been there himself... Bodrum'dan sanki kendisi oraya gitmimi
(kendisi bulunmumu) gibi sz edecektir...
* * * * *
Yaptmz irdeleyelim: 1., 3., 5. rneklerde "present subjunctive" kullandk: Bylece sz konusu zaman
dilimi ile ezamanl bir zaman boyutunu konu edinen bir bildirimde bulunduk.
2., 4., 6. rneklerde "perfect subjunctive" kullandk ve bylece sz edilen zaman diliminin ncesine
ynelik bir bildirimde bulunduk.
imdi, kitabmzn pekok yerinde yinelediimiz temel saptamay bir daha dile getirelim:
1. Present ve future boyutlarna dnk anlatmlarda "present" kalplar; past boyutuna dnk anlatmlarda
ise "perfect" kalplar kullanlr;
2. Ancak "present, future, yada past boyutlarna dnk olma" kavram, iinde yaadmz an asndan
deil, tmcenin iinde getii zaman asndan deerlendirilir: Yani, tmcedeki zamana gre ezamanllk
(=present), tmcedeki zamann gelecei, ve gemii...
NOT: Doaldr ki, tmcedeki zaman ile iinde yaadmz gerek zamann bire bir akt bir tense
var: The Present Continuous Tense (ki bunun bir tanm da "Real Present Tense" tir -- ngilizce'deki dier
present tense, iinde yaadmz gerek zamanla ancak belli ynleriyle, belli lde akr)...

BAKA RNEKLER VE EVRLER


If only Ali were here, he could tell us what to do... Ah, Ali imdi burada olsa, ne yapacamz sylerdi.
(Dikkat ederseniz, koul kipinde "If Ali were here..." eklinde kurulacak tmceye, oradaki anlamn
tesinde bir dilek ve hayflanma boyutu ekleniyor)
A person who took two spoonfuls of this stuff would be dead within minutes... ( = Suppose a person
took... Diyelim ki, varsayalm ki...)
He is a nice person; if only he didn't eat so much garlic !... yi adamdr, ho adamdr, ama bir de bukadar
ok sarmsak yemese !
If only he hadn't eaten so much garlic last night !... (Aslnda belki azna da pek koymaz ama) Keke dn
gece bukadar ok sarmsak yememi olsayd -- Kz kard elinden...
He behaves as if he owned the place... Sanki buras onunmu gibi davranyor... (oysa deil ki)...

NOT: rnein aydan gelmi olsaydk ve bu kiinin davranlarndan kim olduunu karsamaya alyor
olsaydk, gerek durumdan dolay bu tmceyi "the indicative mood" olarak kuracaktk: He behaves as if
he owns this place... Anlam da yle olacakt: Walla, davranlarna baklacak olursa, bu adam burann
sahibi...
He orders me about as if I were his slave... Sanki klesiymiim gibi beni oraya buraya ie kouyor...
(Tabii ki klesi filan deilim!!)...
He acts as though he didn't know where he is... Nerede olduunu bilmez/bilmiyormu/bilincinde deilmi
gibi davranyor...
He acted / was acting as though he didn't know where he was... Nerede olduunu bilmiyormu gibi
davranyordu...
You look as though you hadn't had a decent meals for days on end... Sanki gnlerdir doru drst bir
yemek yememi gibi grnyorsun...
NOT: Ama, "You look as though you haven't had, etc. = Gerekten de yemedin galiba anlamn
verecektir. nk, "subjunctive" bak asn brakp "indicative" yani "gereklere iaret eden" bak
asna gemi oluyoruz...

BU KP ADA NGLZCE'DE LYOR MU?

I wish I didn't love you so much.


Keke seni bukadar ok sevmiyor olsam:
Casablanca filminden (1942)
"ngilizce'nin evriminde, "subjunctive" yaplarn arl zamanla azalm; "may" ve "should" grubu
yardmc fiiller nplana kmtr," diye dnen kimi dilbilimcilere ramen, mevlt okutmak iin henz
ok erken olduu gibi; hele snavlarda tad nemi grmezden gelmek tam bir intihar olur. Benim naiz
kanaatim: The subjunctive is alive and doing well...
Yine de, aada gnlk dilde rastlanabilecek kimi rneklere yer vereceim.
Ama...
"Were" ile kurulan yapnn her durumda kesin doru olduunu; zellikle de ciddi konuma ortamlarnda
mutlaka tercih edilmesi gerektiini vurgulamak isterim. Daha dorusu, yerinizde olsam, her durumda
"were" yapsn tercih ederim...
If I were younger, I would go along with them. -------- If I was ... [Ah, daha gen olsam, onlarla
giderim...Trke'de "giderdim" de diyebilirsiniz, ama "present" anlaml olmak kouluyla...]

If she weren't so mean, she would let me have one of them. -------- If she wasn't ... [Bu kadar cimri ve
bencil olmasa... Trke'de "olmasayd" ifadesi de dorudur, ama ngilizce'deki anlamn "present" ve
genel olduunu hatrnzdan karmaynz...]
I wish my car weren't so slow! -------- I wish my car wasn't ... [Keke arabam bu derece yava olmasa...
Trke'de "olmasayd" ifadesi de dorudur, ama ngilizce'deki anlamn "present" ve genel olduunu

It's not as if she were ugly. -------- ... as if she was ... [Aslnda pek de irkin saylmaz ama...]
She acts as if she were the Queen herself. -------- ... as if she was ... [Sanki bizatihi Kralie

DKKAT... DKKAT...
If I were you, I should tell her.
***if I was you", hibir ortamda kabul grmeyecektir...
* * * * *
ZELLKLE DE, dikkat etmeniz gereken nokta udur: Dilek kipi yerine haber kipini kullandnzda
(rnein, "were" yerine "was") yaptnz bildirim varsaymlar dnyasndan kar; gerekler dnyasna
gemi olursunuz. rneklersek:
If Gne was out all day, then it makes sense that he couldnt answer the phone. [Btn gn evde
olmadna gre, telefona cevap vermemi olmas gayet makl.]
He would always call her from the office if he was going to be late. [Eer ge kalacaksa, hep telefon eder
sylerdi.]
If I was to accept their offer -- which Im still considering -- I would have to go and live in Ankara. [Eer
tekliflerini kabul edecek olursam -- ki bunu hala dnyorum -- gidip Ankara'da yaamam gerekecektir.]
If'li tmcelerde Tip-0 ve Tip-4 diye birey olduunu sananlarn yanlgs da ite bu fark kavrayamam
olmaktan kaynaklanyor!!

By dream_Catcher

ok ilgintir: Btn gramer kitaplar "The Subjunctive Mood" konusuna ok nemli bir konu olarak
deinir, ama ku mudur deve midir, kimseler de kp sylemez... Bunun bir nedeni, bu yaplarn yakn ve
son dnemlerde hzl bir dnm geiriyor olmalardr. Nitekim, az yukarda da deindiim gibi,
gnmzde zellikle senli-benli konuma dilinde "were" yerine "was" kullanm pek yadrganmyor
diyebilirim. Ama siz zellikle snavlarda "koul" ve "dilek" kiplerinin btn ayrntlarna dikkat ediniz,
derim...
1. Burada zerine eilmediim, ok nemli bir subjunctive yap grubunu, Kitabmzn "Ad-Tmcelikler"
Blmnde ayrntlaryla ele almtk (Bknz. Blm 5; "Emir Tmcelerinden"...) Bu tercihimin nedeni,
orada gzden geirilmelerinin retim/renim kolayl saladna olan inancmdr. Bu bakmdan,
burada yalnzca birka rnek ve evirilerini vermekle yetineceim. Aadaki tmcelerin hepsi
subjunctive kipte kurulmutur:
It is essential that she be present. [Kendisinin hazr bulunmas temel nem tayor -- present]
It was essential that she be present. [Kendisinin hazr bulunmas temel nem tayordu -- past]
[imdi ltfen yukarda szn ettiim konuyu yeniden anz, ve "should" yardmc fiilinin nasl
drldne ilikin bilgilerinizi tazeleyiniz...]
As we passed through the village, our guide suggested that we stop and have a few sandwiches. [Kyn
iinden geerken, klavuzumuz durup birka sandvi attrmamz nerdi.] [= suggested that we should
stop and have...]
It is recommended here that the ingredients be thoroughly stirred for at least full five minutes. [= It is
recommended that the ingredients should be...]
Ladies and gentlemen, I now move that the proposal be debated without any further delay. [= move that
the proposal should be... to move = nermek, parliamentary motion = nerge...]
Dr. zbul has passed to us your letter of June 22nd and asked us to thank you for your suggestion that he
come over to stanbul to lecture next Autumn or Winter. [= suggestion that he (yardmc fiil) come...]
2. Subjunctive yaplar bal altnda snflanacak kimi dier rnekler:
Long live the King!... God save the Queen!... Yaasn Kral!... Tanr Kralieyi korusun...
God bless the Turkish Republic!... Tanr Trkiye Cumhuriyetini korusun... God bless you!... Tanr seni
kutsasn... God forgive you!... Tanr seni balasn... Heaven help us!... Tanr yardmcmz olsun...
Heaven be praised!... Tanrya krler (vgler) olsun... Heaven forbid (that)... Allah korusun...
Bless you!... ok yaa! (haprnca)...
Damn you!... Allah belan versin... Curse my luck!... Byle ansa yuh olsun... (serbest eviri)
Manners be damned!... Adab- muaeretin de Tanr belasn versin!
This is the way I like it and public opinion be damned! Ben bunu byle seviyorum; kamuoyunun can
cehenneme!
Suffice it to say (that)... u kadarn sylemekle yetineyim ki.. vs., vs....

The mountain, as it were, had gone into labor and given birth to a mouse. [ Sanki doum sanclar ekmi

Aada vereceim pratik kullanm kural byk nem tayor. Bu altn kural ltfen belleinize
yerletiriniz. Karlaacanz yaplar bu adan irdeleyiniz. Kendiniz tmce olutururken de srekli
bavurunuz. nk, ngilizce'nin zamana ynelik bak asnn srr burada sakl... Bu ikicil yaklamn,
irdeleyeceimiz dier btn dil eleri iin de aynen geerli olduunu unutmaynz. Ad-eylem (gerund),
sfat/zarf-eylem (participle) ve yardmc fiiller gibi konularda da tekrar tekrar karmza kacaktr...

imdiki zaman, geni zaman, gelecek zaman kapsamnda "present" mastarlar kullanlr. Gemie dnk
bildirimlerde "perfect" mastarlar kullanlr. Ne kolay, deil mi?!!

Ama... Bu deerlendirmeler, iinde yaadmz an asndan deil, tmcede sz edilen birden ok


eylemin birbirlerine olan greli zaman ilikisinden ekillenecektir.

rnein, "Dede Korkut was known to be a wise sage," tmcesi (bize gre "past" zamandadr, ama) bir
present mastar ile kurulmutur: Bilge bir kii olduunun bilinmesi, tmcede sz edilen zaman dilimi ile
ezamanldr. evirisi: Dede Korkut'un bilge bir kii olduu biliniyordu... Dikkat ederseniz present

Eer tmceyi, "Dede Korkut was known to have been a wise sage," eklinde, yani bir perfect mastar ile
kursaydk, "Biliniyordu ki Dede Korkut eskiden / bir zamanlar bilge bir kii idi / imi idi" demi olurduk.
nk, bilgelik dnemini, tmcede sz edilen "bunun bilinmesi" dneminin ncesine, gemiine atm
olacaktk.
Bu da yknn geliine gre, "Bu yzden ona akl danmaya karar verdiler," kavram kadar, "Ama artk

NEML RCA: Yukardaki nermeleri kafa kartrc bulduysanz da, ltfen okumaa devam ediniz.
Ksa ksa srede kristal gibi berraklaacak. Ama, ngilizce'nin zamana bu ikicil bak asn, yani
present/perfect ikilisini zmeden bir yere varamazsnz. Bunu da hi unutmayn...

TEMEL RNEKLER
Aada aklamalaryla birlikte verdiim alt grup temel bavuru tmcesini ltfen birbirleri ile
karlatrarak, irdeleyiniz:
A He is known to be a thief. He is known to break the rules. = Kendisinin bir hrsz olduu, kurallar hep
inedii biliniyor/bilinir.
B He is known to have been a thief. He is known to have broken the rules. = Eskiden bir hrsz olduu,
kurallar inemi olduu imdi/halen biliniyor/bilinir. (Artk hrszlk etmiyor olabilir. Biz gemiten sz
ediyoruz.)
C He was known to be a thief. He was known to break the rules. = O zamanlar hrszn biri olduu ve
kurallar inemekte olduu yine o zamanlar bilinirdi/biliniyordu.
D He was known to have been a thief. He was known to have broken the rules. = O dnemde artk
biliniyordu ki eskiden hrszn biriydi, kurallar inemiti. Dikkat ederseniz, olaylar bize gre gemite
kald iin deil (nitekim yukardaki "c" kknda da yle yapmadk), sz edilen zamana gre gemite
kalm olduu iin perfect mastar kullandk.
E A day will come when he will be known to be a thief. He will be known to break the rules. = Bu
adamn hrszn biri olduu ve kurallar inedii belki bugn iin bilinmiyor, ama gn gelecek
bilinecektir. (Konuya, gelecekteki o nokta asndan bakyoruz.)
F A day will come when he will be known to have been a thief in the past. He will be known to have
broken all the rules just as he does today... = Gn gelecek eskiden hrszn biri olduu renilecek,
bilinecektir. (Konuya, gelecekteki o nokta asndan, ama o noktann gemiine dnk olarak bakyoruz.)
SONU: Dikkat ederseniz yukardaki rneklerin hibirisinde present / perfect mastar tercihi iinde
bulunduumuz an asndan yaplmad. Tmcedeki zaman dilimlerinin birbirlerine greli ilikilerine gre
ekillendiler. (Bu iliki yalnzca ilk iki rnekte bizim u andaki bak amz ile akt.)
AIKLAMASI
"a, c, e" rneklerinde present mastarlar kullandk. nk hrszlk olaylar ile bunlarn herkes
tarafndan biliniyor olmas ezamanl, yani birbirlerine gre "present" zamandadr...

"b, d, f" rneklerinde ise prefect mastarlar kullandk. nk hrszlk olaylar, bunlarn renilip
konuulduu dneme gre gemi zamandadr...
Demek ki olaylara, kendi zamana bak amzdan deil, tmcedeki zamann gemii, ezamanls,
gelecei asndan bakyoruz.
Bu konu zerinde bu derece nemle durmamm nedeni, daha nce de sylediim gibi, gerund'lar,
participle'lar, yardmc fiiller, subjunctive'ler gibi ngilizce gramerin her alannda karmza kacak ok
temel bir bak as tekil etmesidir. ngilizce'nin zamana olan "present ve perfect" eklindeki bu ikili
bak asn ne derece nemle vurgulasak azdr.

ok somut bir ifadeyle,


"I, too, would like to go..."
ile
"I, too, would like to have gone..."
arasndaki fark grp deerlendirmedike, ngilizce'de daha alacanz ok yol var demektir!
Eh! Dost ac sylermi!!

MASTARLARIN KULLANILDIKLARI YERLER


01 ngilizce'de fiillerin byk bir blm "We want to learn English" kalbnda kullanlabilen, yani
kendisinden sonra mastar gerektiren fiillerdir. Bunlar, gkteki yldzlar kadar kalabalk olduklarndan
listelemeye gitmeyeceim; rneklerle yetineceim:

Here is a sad little love story I have composed for you using a lot of common verbs in the infinitive:
We had arranged to meet at eight... I had told her that I would try not to be late, but she shouldn't expect
to see me arriving before eight, either... I managed to get there just as the clock struck the hour...
However, she herself failed to appear, because she had forgotten to set her alarm clock... I meant to teach
her a lesson... I was not intending to stay there for long and I wasn't prepared to wait for any length of

time... She had to learn to be punctual... But she never cared to pay any attention to my protestations...
She pretended not to hear me and just promised to be on time the next time... But I would refuse to meet
her ever again... So we decided to put a decent end to our short-lived love affair....

SONU: Bu ve bunlar gibi daha yzlerce (belki de binlerce -- hi oturup saymadm) fiilden sonra, eer
bir eylemden sz edilecekse, o ikinci fiilin mastar hali kullanlr. Yani, daha ak bir anlatmla, o fiilin
"ismi anlr"...
* * * * *

02 Kimi fiiller, "He advised me to study harder" kalbnda kullanlabilir, yani kendisinden sonra "nesne
+ mastar" alabilir. Nesne, herhangi bir ad veya adl (zamir) olabilir. te size ksa bir liste:
advise, allow, ask, beg, bribe, cause, compel, command, encourage, entitle, expect, forbid, force, help,
induce, intend, instruct, invite, oblige, order, permit, persuade, remind, request, teach, tell, tempt, urge,
want, warn...

Walla, byle "juicy" rnekler yaznca benim de itahm kabaryor; roman yazmaya m dnsem acaba
diyorum kendi kendime...]
NOT: Gerek Madde 01 gerek Madde 02 kapsamna giren fiillerde ortaya kan anlam farkna dikkat
ediniz:
I expect to leave tonight (Ben bu gece gitmeyi umuyorum)...
I expect you to leave tonight (Senin be gece yola kacan sanyorum, yola kman istiyorum)...

I want to leave immediately (Ben hemen yola kmak istiyorum)...

________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

Olanakl, fakat ok yaygn deildir. Bunun da iki nedeni var: Birincisi, bu ileve ad-fiiller (gerund -bknz. Blm 11) daha ok yakr; ve ikincisi,
It + be/seem/appear + sfat + mastar
yaps (yani belli fiiller ve "bo" zne ile kullanm) tercih edilir:
To see is to believe. [ znemiz bir mastar]
Seeing is believing. [ znemiz bir ad-fiil]
[Bu satrlar yazarken istatistikleri merak ettim ve ap Google'dan baktm: birincisi 1420 sitede yer
bulmuken, ikincisi ise tam 115 000 sitede boy gstermi...]

To hear such news is very disappointing. Hearing such news is very disappointing.
It is very disappointing to hear such news.

To have everything one wants is impossible.


Having everything one wants is impossible.
It is impossible to have everything one wants.

Son iki rnekten de grlecei zere, dierleri "gramer d" olmamakla birlikte, "It" bo znesi ile
kurulan tmce kulaa ok daha doal geliyor.

11 Sfat-tmcelikleri mastar yapsna dntrerek tmcede belli bir toparlama ve ksaltma salamak

There is nothing (which/that) we can do under the circumstances. ------ There's nothing (for us) to do
under the circumstances.
He has a lot of toys (which/that) he can play with. ------ He has a lot of toys to play with.
12 Gerek infinitive gerekse gerund alabilen fiiller:

rnekler:

BAZI ZEL YAPILAR

14 Deyimsel nitelikte, ve gerekten ok nemli baz yaplara da dikkatinizi ekmek isterim. Kesinlikle
not ediniz:
a. Fail + mastar : Olumsuzluk bildirir. Ayrca, ngilizce'de mmkn olmayan "double negative" kurulumu
iin de bir k kapsdr:
She failed to come. = She didn't come. (Tmcenin evirisi: "Gelmedi," eklindedir. Gelmekte
baarszla urad, eklinde evrilemez)
She didn't fail to come. = Gelmemezlik etmedi... (te size mkemmel bir double negative rnei.)
b. Be + mastar : 1) gelecek zaman, veya 2) zorunluluk, mecburiyet belirten nemli bir ifadedir. kinci
anlamnda, ou zaman, emir ve direktif anlamlar tar ve nc kiilerin emirlerini iletmekte de ok sk
kullanlr:
The ship is to arrive tonight. = Gemi bu gece gelecek.
You are to go and see the boss right away. = Derhal gidip patronu grmen gerekiyor. (Byk bir
olaslkla, patronun "ricasn" iletiyoruz)
198

te bu yap ile ok gzel "future in the past" tmceler oluturabilirsiniz:


The ship was to arrive tonight, but it now seems it will be delayed for a few days due to a terrible storm
on the way... Gelecekti, -cekti ama yle grlyor ki... -emeyecek, vb.
c. Manage + mastar (succeed in + gerund) = Becermek, baarmak:
Despite all those hardships, we managed to get there on time. = Zamannda ulamay baardk.
d. Happen + mastar (Trkeye ok zor eviri verir)

ama aslnda istemiyorum.
The bungalows were supposed to be vacated by noon, but in practice nobody really complied. =
Boaltlmalar gerekiyordu, bekleniyordu, ama kimse buna uymuyordu...

We weren't really expecting it, but the whole occasion turned out to be a great success.
We were there for a drunken party, but sometimes things turn out to be very different from what you had
bargained for... I got quite a shock when I realized half the people there were complete teetotallers... [
bargain for = burada, "ummak, hesaplamak," anlamnda... teetotaller = asla azna iki koymayan, yani -sz aramzda -- niye yaad belli olmayan kimse... ]

RNEKLER VE TRKE EVRLER


NOT: eviri ilevini nplana alrken, gzel Trkemizi biraz kstrmek zorunda kaldm...
1) The committee does not wish him to accept a professorship at a foreign university and this is only
natural since they would not want to lose one of their best men... Kurul kendisinin yabanc bir
niversitede profesrlk kabul etmesini istemiyor. En iyi adamlarndan birisini kaybetmek istememeleri
(genelde istemeyecekleri) ok doal...
2) After checking his documents, they let him go. I had expected him to be arrested (that they would
arrest him), but he was let go... Belgelerini kontrol ettikten sonra kendisini salverdiler. Tutuklanacan
(Onu tutuklayacaklarn) dnyordum (umuyordum), ama salverildi... ("let" fiilinin yaln mastar, yani
"to" olmakszn yaln fiil alna dikkat)
3) Everyone heard her screaming at the top of her voice, but no one actually saw the man take (taking) the

gidip patronu grmem gerekiyor, ama aslnda hi istemiyorum... ("want to go and see him" eklinde
yinelemek gerekmiyor)
7) You needn't do it if you don't want to. You needn't say anything you don't want to... Yapmak
istemiyorsan, yapmak zorunda deilsin. Sylemek istemediin bireyi sylemek zorunda deilsin...
8) It is foolish to pretend to know something that you don't. It is more foolish of you to go and announce
it to everyone... Bilmediin bireyi biliyormu gibi numara yapmak budalalk, senin gidip bunu herkese
ilan etmen daha da byk budalalk...
9) He failed in the examination because he had failed to understand that he had a language handicap to
take into account... Snavda baarsz oldu, nk dikkate almas gereken bir dil engeli olduunu
anlamamt. (To fail, birinci balamda szlk anlamnda = baarsz olmak. kinci balamda ise yalnzca
bir ilev esi = ilgili olduu fiilin anlamn olumsuz yapyor... Yani, to fail to understand = anlamamak,
anlayamamak = not to understand).
10) Do not refuse to face the truth. Give yourself a chance to do your best. Ask your friends to correct
your mistakes and do not fail to benefit from their corrections... Yanllarn dzeltmelerini

Yani keramet, kullandnz mastar present / perfect / aktif / pasif / continuous mudur, ondadr...
19) "Where's Gne?" "I don't know. He was supposed to be washing the car." = Arabay ykyor
olmalyd... ("Ama, demek ki orada yok" anlamn veriyor. Eer, present "is supposed to be washing"
yapsn tercih etseydik, "Arabay ykyor olmal, gidip oraya bak" anlamn verirdi)
20) He survived the plane crash only to die in a car accident... Uak kazasndan kurtuldu ama bir araba
kazasnda ld.
OK NEML NOT: "Only + mastar" ile kurulan bu yapya dikkatinizi ekmek isterim. (Daha da
kts, "only" bazen drlebilir de...) Hernekadar mastarlar ama belirtmek iin kullanlyorlarsa da,
burada "araba kazasnda lmek iin" evirisinin geerli olmayaca aktr. Bu yapy tmcenin geliinden
anlamak zorundasnz ve Trke'ye evirisi genelde "......, ama ...." eklinde yaplr. te baka rnekler:
Many would-be investors go into business with great expectations only to watch helplessly as their capital
becomes smaller and smaller. Pekok szde (would-be = "olacakt ama olamad") yatrmc byk
umutlarla i hayatna atlrlar, ama sermayelerinin kln umutsuzlukla seyretmekten baka birey
yapamazlar...
I hate running to the station to catch a train only to find out that it has been taken off service. Tireni
yakalayacam diye istasyona kotur, sonra da hizmetten kaldrldn ren: Tam nefretlik bir durum!...
NOT: Ne var ki, aadaki "if only" yapsn bununla kartrmaynz:
It is well worth visiting these secluded islands if only to watch the magnificent sunsets. Bu cra adalar
ziyaret etmek, srf ahane gnbatmlarn seyir iin bile olsa deer...

22) He loves parties; he is always the first to arrive and the last to leave... Neil Armstrong became the first
man ever to set foot on the moon... It received an award as the best play to be performed that year...
Buradaki yap = the + sfat + (varsa) ad + mastar...
"ever" szcn de eklerseniz, yapya "o gne dein, bu gne dein, tm zamanlardaki" anlamn da
kazandrrsnz...
23) I am pleased to meet you... It was a pleasure to meet you... I'm so glad to have met you... (Son ikisi,
tantktan sonra, ayrlrken sylenir. Bunlardan birincisinde "past" zaman tmcenin tense'ine
yklyoruz, ikincisinde ise bir perfect mastar kullanyoruz.
Daha nce de iaret etmitim: Ayrlrken yeniden "I'm so glad to meet you" diyecek olursak, gemi ve
imdiki zamanlar birbirinden tefrik edemeyen bir "embesil" olduumuza orackta karar vermeleri
kanlmazdr !!
24) The stanbul train is due to leave in ten minutes... On dakika sonra kalkacak.

By dream_Catcher

DKKAT... lla ki "on dakika iinde" demek istiyorsanz, "within ten minutes" yapsn tercih ediniz. "In",
zaman bildiren ifadelerde genellikle "sonra" anlam verir.
Gelecek zaman ifade eden "due + mastar" yapsn "due to + ad" eklindeki "--den dolay" yaps ile
kartrmaynz: "due to an accident" = bir kazadan dolay, bir kaza nedeniyle... Ama "due to leave" =
gidecek, kalkacak...
25) I'm anxious to see him at once, because I'm anxious about his health... Derhal onu grmek istiyorum,
sal konusunda endieliyim... (To be anxious + mastar = acilen yapmak istemek... to be anxious about
something = endieli olmak)
26) He was foolish enough to leave the car unlocked... (Tmcenin geliine gre iki deiik anlam
verebilir: 1) Bu hatay yapabilecek lde budalann birisiydi. 2) Bu hatay yapmak budalaln gsterdi,
bu hatay yapt)
27) According to some scientists, the earth may be entering a new ice age... (Halen buzul ana girme
durumu devam ediyor, buzul ana girmekte... Eer, "may have entered", "may have already entered"
yaplarn, yani perfect mastar kullanm olsaydk anlam: daha imdiden girmi, zaten girmi bulunuyor,
eklinde olacakt)
28) I happened to be standing next to him when he collapsed... It so happened that I was standing next to
him when he collapsed... = Tesadf bu ya... (Bu yapnn trkeye ok zor eviri verdiine daha nce de
deindik)
29) When his father came back from the office, he pretended to have been studying... Everytime his father
goes into his room, he just pretends to be studying... (to be studying = alyor olmak... to have been
studying = alagelmi ve hala alyor...)
30) The house was to have been ready by now, but as there has been a builders' strike, it is only half
finished. = Ev imdiye dein hazr olmu olacakt, ama olamad... Grevden dolay ancak yar bitmi
durumda.
Hatrlaynz: be + mastar, 1) gelecek zaman; 2) zorunluluk, mecburiyet iletebilir. Burada her iki anlamna
da yer verdik ve "future in the past tense" ile kullandk: "hazr olmu olacakt, ama olamad...

Just recently, there have been a lot of brutal bombings and attackings in that district.
Do you mind my smoking a pipe?
[Veya, Do you mind me smoking a pipe? -- ANCAK DKKAT... Klasik gramer "my" zerinde srar
edecektir, ama "me" kullanm da gnmzde hi az saylmaz. rnein, "Mother hates our walking in

doaldr... Ama, ola ki bir snavda birlikte verilecek olurlarsa, "my, our...etc" eklindeki iyelik
(possessive) form kesinlikle tercih edilmelidir. Unutmaynz: Snavlar klasik grameri sever.]
2. Fiil nitelii ile, kendisi de nesne alabilir veya bir belirte (zarf) yahut belirte bei ile nitelenebilir:
The lawyer began reading the will slowly and in an emphatic manner. [Avukat vasiyetnameyi yava

ARA BLMN SONU

GERUND / PARTICIPLE AYRIMI


Past participle "seen" dnda, gerund ve participle'larn (orta ve ulalar; bknz. Blm 12) tmyle
ebiimli olduklar dikkatinizi ekecektir. Aralarndaki ilev ve kullanm farklar asndan aadaki
rnekleri inceleyiniz:
He likes swimming in the sea... Denizde yzmeyi sever. (present gerund: "sevmek" fiilinin nesnesi)
He is swimming in the sea... u anda denizde yzyor. (present participle = present continuous tense
tekili iin)
I hate standing in the rain and waiting for the bus to come... Yamur altnda dikilip (dikilmekten ve)
otobsn gelmesini beklemekten nefret ederim. (nefret etmek fiilinin iftli nesnesi konumunda iki ayr
gerund)
I hate standing in the rain, waiting for the bus to come... Otobsn gelmesini bekleyerek/bekler durumda
(participle) yamurun altnda dikilmekten (gerund) nefret ederim. (gerund = nefret fiilinin nesnesi;

Having finished his work successfully satisfied him greatly... ini baaryla bitirmi olmak one byk
doyum veriyordu. (perfect gerund active: "satisfied" fiilinin znesi)
Having finished his work successfully, he went to collect his payment... ini baaryla tamamladktan
sonra (bitirmi olaraktan) cretini almaa gitti. (perfect participle active ile ksaltlm zarf-tmcelik =
"After he had finished his work" yerine... Sfat ve zarf-tmceliklerde ksaltma konusunu, "Participles"
Blmnde ok ayrntl biimde inceleyeceiz.)

Szel Uygulama: Yukarda sz edilen ebiimlilikten kaynaklanacak anlam karmalar, konumada
farkl szck vurgusu yaplarak nlenir. Gerund'lar ile ad-tamlamas, participle'lar ile sfat-tamlamas
kurulduuna dikkat ediniz. Vurgulanmas gereken szckleri kaln yazdm:
a sleeping pill = uyku hap... (nasl bir hap, sorusuna yant) ---- a sleeping child = uyumakta olan bir
ocuk (nasl bir ocuk sorusuna yant) Baka bir deyile, "a sleeping pill" eklinde yanl bir vurgu
sonucunda "uyumakta olan bir hap" anlalacaktr!!
a running competition = atletizm (kou) yarmas... a running man = komakta olan bir adam... "The
village had no running water" = Bir sfat tamlamas, ancak anlam karkl szkonusu deil ve hakl
olarak suyun nitelii vurgulanyor: Su ebekesi anlamnda "akan su".
Have you ever met a dancing teacher? Hi dans retmeni tandnz m?
Have you ever seen a dancing teacher? Hi dansetmekte olan bir retmen grdnz m?

2) To Be Fiili Ve Gerund Nesne Alan teki Fiiller le:
Seeing is believing...

They resented her coming along with us. Bizimle birlikte gelmesini esefle karladlar, ilerine
sindiremiyorlard.
We can't afford being seen in such company... Bu tr kimselerin yannda grlmeyi gze alamayz...
His main concern has been keeping the affair a secret... Kendisi iin asl ilgi ve endie konusu, ilikinin
gizli tutulmas, gizli kalmasyd.
NEML NOT: Yukardaki tmceyi, sanki "present perfect continuous" ile kurulmuasna bir solukta
okursanz, anlam anlalmaz hale gelecektir: Bu yzden, "has been" den sonra ksa bir duraksama yapp
(es verip), sonra uygun bir vurgulama ile, "keeping" szcnn bir gerund ve nesne olduunu belirtiriz.
Nesne olarak gerund gerektiren en nemli fiilleri aada listeliyorum: zlerek de eklemeliyim ki, bu

imdiki zaman, geni zaman, gelecek zaman kapsamnda "present participle" lar kullanlr. Gemie
dnk bildirimlerde "perfect participle" lar kullanlr. Ne kolay, deil mi?

FAKAT DKKAT ! Bu deerlendirmeler, iinde yaadmz an asndan deil, tmcede sz edilen


durum ve eylemlerin birbirleri ile greli zamansal ilikilerinden ekillenecektir. rnek bir tmce aada:

Aye had been sick all through that morning...


suspected that her friend might be pregnant.

Being pregnant herself, Fatma knew the signs and

[Aye'nin sabah boyunca bulants vard. Fatma, kendisi de gebe olduu iin, belirtileri biliyordu ve
iinde arkadann gebe olabilecei phesi uyanmt.]
Burada sz edilen durum, bize gre gemi zamanda olmasna karn, present participle ile ifade
edilmitir: nk, o an itibariyle Fatma kendisi de hamiledir ve arkadann durumunu anlamaktadr.
Yani bu iki durum, birbirine gre ezamanldr ve "present" zamandadr.

Eer tmceyi perfect participle ile kursaydk, "Having been pregnant herself...": anlam tmyle deiirdi:
Eskiden kendisi de gebe kalm olduu iin, imdi arkadann durumunu anlayabiliyordu"...
ekline dnrd...

KONU BZLER N NEDEN NEML ?


Anmsayalm: Ad-fiiller (gerund) "ad" ilevlidir; tmcelerde ad kullanlmas gereken yerlerde
kullanlrlar. Participle'lar ise [DKKAT: tenselerin oluturulmasnda kullanlan fiil ekimleri de bu balk
altnda toplanr] sfat ve zarf ilevli fiil trevleri olarak,
1) Dorudan sfat olarak kullanlabilir:
present participle: a sleeping child, running water, passing clouds
past participle: a broken heart, selected questions, written statements
It's surprising / We are surprised... It's frightening / We are frightened... The film was boring / We were
bored... The journey was tiring / They were tired...

2) Ama daha de nemlisi, ksaltlm sfat-tmcelik ve ksaltlm zarf-tmcelik yapmnda grev alrlar.
Bizim de dikkatimizi asl younlatracamz konu budur. nk, yabanc dil olarak ngilizce
reniminde en etin konulardan birisini oluturmaktadr.

"KISALTMA" LEM NASIL YAPILIR ?


Sfat yada zarf tmcelikteki bala, (varsa) zne ve fiil bei, zaman ve at olarak bu fiilin uygun
"participle" trevine dntrlr ve ayn tmcelik artk bu "participle kalb" ile balar.
Yani, ksaltlm sfat yada zarf tmcelik, bu Blmn en banda sraladmz BE participle kalbndan
birisi ile balar.
[Bunlar tmce iinde daha grr grmez "ppadanaktan" tanmanz size byk avantaj salayacaktr...
Dolaysyla, imdi dnp bunlar bir kez daha dikkatle irdelemenizi neririm.]

1) KISALTILMI SIFAT TMCELKLER


A) The Present Participle ile:
who is walking -------- walking = yrmekte olan

The man who is walking towards us is my uncle.


-------- The man walking towards us is my uncle.

which shows -------- showing = gsteren

What we need is a map which shows the secondary roads as well.


-------- What we need is a map showing the secondary roads as well.

who wish -------- wishing = isteyen

Those who wish to leave can do so now.


-------- Those wishing to leave can do so now.

who were excavating ----- excavating = kazmakta olan

I inspected the men who were excavating the site.


-------- I inspected the men excavating the site.

which was being excavated ----- being excavated = kazlmakta olan

I inspected the site which was being excavated.


-------- I inspected the site being excavated.
* * * * *
B) The Past Participle ile:

The questions which were chosen were very easy.


-------- The questions chosen were very easy.

NEML NOTLAR
1) Doaldr ki, iki bamsz tmce, burada gsterdiimiz participle kalplar kullanlarak tek tmce haline
getirilebilir. ok k sonular elde edilecektir:
I inspected the men. They were excavating the site. -------- I inspected the men excavating the site.
I inspected the site. It was being excavated. ---------- I inspected the site being excavated.
Some people were arrested. They had nothing to do with the incident. -------- The people arrested had
nothing to do with the incident.
They noticed a group of enemy soldiers. They were hiding behind the trees. -------- They noticed a
group of enemy soldiers hiding behind the trees. (... enemy soldiers who were hiding... etc'den ksaltma
yoluyla)
2) Perfect participle ile ksaltlm sfat tmcelik kurulamadna dikkat ediniz. Ama, perfect participle ile
kurulan zarf tmceliin bazen Trke'ye bir sfat tmcelii olarak evrilmesinin daha anlaml olaca
grlebilir:
Having been informed of the enemy attack beforehand, the general arranged his troops in proper battle
formation. (= Because/since/as he had been informed... 'dan ksaltma)
Dman saldrs hakknda nceden bilgilendirilmi olduu iin, general birliklerini uygun sava
dzeninde yerletirdi. (Gramer asndan doru eviri)
Dman saldrs hakknda nceden bilgilendirilen / bilgilendirilmi olan general birliklerini uygun sava
dzeninde yerletirdi. (Trke anlatmda yelenebilecek ikinci olaslk)
Esasen kanaatim odur ki, ksaltlm tmceler sfat tmlecik niteliinde olsun yada olmasn, Trke'ye
sfat tmcelii olarak daha baarl eviri veriyorsa, o ekilde evrilmelidir. evirmenin ilk grevi,
kaynak dilin gramerine sadk kalmak deil, kendi dilindeki anlatm zelliklerini nplana karmaktr.
Ama, tabiatyla, bu sylediimi snavlarda uygulamaynz. Snavlarda farkl bir dnyann ltleri
geerlik kazanr...

2) KISALTILMI ZARF TMCELKLER


A) The Present Participle:
Because he believed he had no chance at all, he decided not to bother to take the exam.
-------- Believing he had no chance at all... etc.
As Aye was pregnant, she knew the signs and she could understand Fatma's predicament.
-------- Being pregnant herself, she knew, ...etc.

zellikle son tmce, "present" veya "perfect" kalp seiminin tmcedeki zamana gre yapld gereini
ok gzel rmekliyor. Bize gre future zamanda gerekleecek olmasna ramen, baarszlk durumu o
zaman dilimine gre "past" olduu iin perfect participle kullanyoruz.
Present/perfect kalp seiminin, iinde bulunduumuz zamana gre deil, tmcedeki zaman ilikileri
asndan yapldn tekrar ve nemle hatrlatmak isterim. Zaten Trkede de durum byle deil midir? =
"Daha nceden iki kez baarszlkla karlam olduu / olaca iin, bir kez daha denemek
istemeyecektir..."

DKKAT... DKKAT...
"Perfect Continuous Participle"
Tam bu noktada, u ana dein szn etmediimiz bir baka participle yapsna da deinmenin tam
zaman: "Perfect continuous participle"... Aadaki rnek iki tmceyi ve ksaltlm ekillerini
irdeleyiniz:
Gne finished his homework. Then, he showed it to his brother.
Having finished his homework, Gne showed it to his brother. = Bitirdikten sonra...

Gne has been digging the garden all day long. He must be tired now.
226

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

Having been digging the garden, Gne must be tired now. = Kazagelmi olaraktan... Kazagelmi olduu
iin...
"Perfect participle" yaps, ana-tmcelik ncesi bir durum veya eylemi anlatmak iin kullanlrken...
"Perfect continuous" yaps ana-tmcelikte sz edilen zamana dein sregelmi ve hal srmekte olan
durumlar ve eylemler iin kullanlyor.
Fazla rastlanmayan bir kullanm olmakla birlikte, "perfect continuous participle" yine de geerli ve
bilinmesinde fayda olan bir participle yapsdr.
te sizlere iki gzel rnek:
Having been trying to see it happen for so many years, one is inclined not to believe it when it actually
happens. = Olmasn yllarca bekleyegeldikten sonra, gerekleince insann gzlerine inanas gelmiyor.
Having been waiting for this letter for so long, I was now very happy. = Bunca zamandr bu mektubu
bekleyegelmitim ve o anda ok mutluydum...
* * * * *
C) The Past Participle:
Past participle ile kurulan tmceliklerin yalnzca edilgen anlaml olabileceine dikkat ediniz:
When he was questioned by the police, he gave misleading answers.
------- Questioned by the police, ...etc. Sorgulanmakta iken..
After it had been seen by the committee, the report was now disclosed to the press.
------- Seen by the committee, ...etc. Komite tarafndan grldkten sonra...

NOT: Dikkat edilirse, yukardaki ilk rnek EZAMANLI, ikinci rnek ise ARDZAMANLI anlam tayor.
Ksaltlm tmcede, bunu tmcenin, paragrafn, sz blnn geliinden anlarz. Ancak, ayn nedenle
de, ngilizce-Trke szlklerde, "past participle" trevlerin Trke karl olarak her ikisi de
gsterilmelidir: seen = grlen, grlm (olan)... discovered = kefedilen, kefedilmi (olan)... gibi.

DKKAT... DKKAT...
BALACIN KORUNDUU YERLER
Sfat/zarf tmcelik olutururken, genel ilke olarak, fiil grubunda uygulanan dntrmler yannda,
balacn da atlaca, ve toptan hepsinin yerine BE PARTICIPLE KALIBIMIZDAN BRSNN

Although feeling ill, she stayed at home and studied for her exams.
Ayn ekilde,
Backing out of her garage, she hit her husband.
Byle bir tmce, olayn "taammden cinayet" olduu izlenimini verecektir. Olayn bir kaza olduunu dile

Romeo, believing Juliet is dead, does not hesitate to choose death himself.
2) Bu koul karland srece, participle ile znesinin arasn aabilirsiniz:
I walked through the barricade, hoping that they would not stop me.
Ali and Gne walked in, followed by their wives and children.
lk rnekte, participle mantk olarak "barricade" ile ilikilendirilemez: Barikatlarn "umut
etmesi/etmemesi" szkonusu deil... Dolaysyla, "I, hoping that they would not stop me, walked through
the barricade" demek zorunda deiliz... Unutmayn, yakn ilikili olan "I" ve "walked" szcklerinin
arasn ne kadar ok aarsak, tmcenin anlalmas o derece gleir.
3) Kendisinden nce herhangi bir ad/adl bulunmayan bir participle ise, kendisinden sonra gelen fiilin
znesi ile balantldr:
Puzzled by the situation, Ali decided to talk to Gne about it. (= Durumdan aknlk duyan Ali'dir)

4) Bu saydklarmz sanki uyarya gerek olmayan apak gereklermi gibi grnyorsa da, doabilecek
yanllklara ve bunlarn tedavi yollarna rnekler verelim:
YANLI : Waiting for a bus, a dog jumped on my lap... Bu tmceye gre, kucama atlayan kpek orada
otobs bekliyordu... Yanl tedavi yolu olarak, burada zarf-tmcelii ak ak, yani ksaltmadan yazmak
yoluna gidebilirsiniz:
SEENEK : While I was waiting for a bus, a dog ...etc.
YANLI : While studying, a barking dog disturbed me... Buradaki yanl da, rnein pasif dnm ile
dzeltebiliriz:
SEENEK : While studying, I was disturbed by a barking dog...
YANLI : Walking down the road, red brick houses can be seen stretching out on both sides.
SEENEK : When one walks down the road, red brick houses ...etc.
YANLI : While lifting a heavy stone, my back was hurt.
SEENEK : I hurt my back while (I was) lifting a heavy stone.
Peki, acaba bir "participle" n yanl kullanlp kullanlmadn, yani "dangling participle" olup
olmadn snamann bir yolu yok mudur? Bir baka yanl ilikilendirme rnei alalm:
YANLI : Rushing to get to the meeting on time, Ali's car broke down. ("Toplantya yetimek iin acele
ederken, Ali'nin arabas arza yapt," demek istemiiz, ama tabii yanl tmce kurmuuz...)
Yanl yakalamann bir yolu, ksaltlm tmcelii, asl tmcedeki znenin hemen arkasna kaydrp,
duruma bir gz atmaktr: "Ali's car, rushing to get to the meeting on time, broke down." Tmcedeki
mantkszlk, bu yeni durumda, apak grlmektedir.

DKKAT... DKKAT...

Bir nceki maddede yaptmz saptamaya karn, Participle'n znesi ile, temel tmcelik znesinin ayn
kii olmas zorunluu yoktur:
The day being fine, we decided to go out for a walk...
All the necessary arrangements having been made, the two teams were now going over their final
preparations.

OLASI ANLAM KARIIKLIKLARI


Daha dorusu, "olmayas anlam karklklar" !!
Srekli gznnde bulundurmak zorunda olduumuz bir genel ilkeyi burada yeniden anmsayalm:
imdiki, geni, gelecek zamana ilikin anlatmlar iin PRESENT kalplar; gemie ilikin anlatmlar iin
PERFECT kalplar kullanlr. Ancak zaman boyutundaki bu greli deerlendirme, bizim iinde
yaadmz zaman asndan deil, tmcedeki zamanlar asndan yaplr.
NOT: Ana-tmcelikteki zamann, iinde yaadmz zamanla birebir akt tek zaman, present
continuous tense, ksmen de simple present tense' tir.
imdi aadaki tmceyi, ksaltlm ekli ile birlikte irdeleyelim:
After I had finished my shopping, I returned home.
Having finished my shopping, I returned home.
Kaynak tmce, tense kullanm kurallarna uygun ve doru oluturulmu; bize gre gemiteki bir olay
iin PAST TENSE, onun ncesi iin PAST PERFECT TENSE kullanlmtr...
Ksaltlm tmcede de, yine doru bir seimle, uygun participle kullanlmtr = PERFECT
PARTICIPLE. Yani, "nce alverii bitirdim, sonra eve dndm," denilmektedir...
Eer yanl bir seimle, present participle kullanlm olsayd, anlam bulanklaacak, ou zaman da
mantk d bir anlam kazanacakt:
***Finishing my shopping, I returned home... Alveriimi bitirirken, eve dndm !! Ama eer bu tmce
size Trke'de bir biimde mantkl grnyorsa, bir de u alttakini deneyiniz:
***Finishing my breakfast, I had a bath... (Bir yandan) kahvaltm bitirirken, (bir yandan da) banyo
yaptm !!
Oysa iletilmek istenen kavram, "alverii bitirdikten sonra" dr. Bu iki eylem arasndaki zaman aral
nedeniyle, nceki eylem iin PERFECT PARTICIPLE, yani "alverii yapm olarak, yaptktan sonra"
kavramn kullanmak zorundayz.
imdi kurallar sralayalm:
1) Demek ki, iki eylem arasnda ak ve belirgin bir zaman aral varsa, doal tercihimiz PERFECT
PARTCIPLE seimi olur. VE DKKAT: Bu eylemlerin, bizim iinde bulunduumuz zamana gre

past/present/future boyutunda olmalar bu seimi etkilemez. Esas olan, tmcedeki iki eylemin birbirine
gre durumudur:
Having failed in her previous attempts, she was not willing to try for a third time.
Having failed in her previous attempts, she will be reluctant to try for a third time.

Having lived on his own for a long time, he found it difficult to adjust to a married life.
Having lived on his own for a long time, he will find it difficult to adjust to a married life.

Having been bitten twice before, the postman refused to deliver our letters unless we chained up our dog.
Having been bitten twice before, the postman refuses to deliver our letters unless we chain up our dog.
* * * * *
2) Sz edilen iki eylem arasnda ksa sre iinde ardklk, pepee gerekleme gibi durumlarda
PERFECT PARTICIPLE yerine aadaki forml geerlik kazanabilir:
perfect participle ------ on (upon) + present participle
When she entered the room, she found the boys fast asleep.
------ On entering the room, she found ...etc.
When the customs officers opened her suitcase, they found the documents hidden away among her
clothes.
------ Upon opening her suitcase, ...etc.
Bunlar Trke'ye "Odaya girince... antalar amalar zerine..." yada "Girdi ve grd, atlar ve
grdler" eklinde eviriyoruz.
3) rnein aadaki tmcede, sz edilen iki eylemin ezamanl yada ardk olup olmadklar belirsiz
braklmtr:
Reading the instructions, she decided to try the machine.
Acaba, talimatlar bir yandan okurken mi, yoksa okuduktan sonra m karar verdi? Trke'de bu
belirsizlii yazda virgl kullanarak, konumada ise szck vurgusu ile (bir lde) zebiliriz:
Talimatlar okuyarak karar verdi... = Okurken,
Talimatlar okuyarak, karar verdi... Okuduktan sonra... okumas sonucunda...
ngilizce ise ayn ikilemi participle tercihi ile zlecektir:

(While) Reading the instructions...


Having read the instructions...

KM ZEL KULLANIMLAR
1) See, hear, feel, smell, listen to, notice, find, watch fiillerinden sonra
nesne + present participle
I see him passing by my window every day... I felt the whole place shaking... He smelt something
burning... They found him lying on the sofa... I watched them rehearsing the ceremony...
DKKAT: Ayn durumda nesne + yaln mastar yaps tercih edilirse anlam bakalar:
I saw him doing it. =Yaparken grdm.
I saw him do it. = Yaptn biliyorum. Yaptn grdm. Belki de srekli yapyordur zaten...
DKKAT... DKKAT... Yaln mastar ile kurulan yaplar, edilgen (pasif) atda tam mastar haline dnr:
He was seen to do it many times... He was overheard to say that he would never agree to it...
2) Catch ve find fiillerinden sonra nesne + present participle
"Catch" ile kurulan bir tmce, znenin szkonusu eylemden honutsuz olduunu dile getirir. "Find" ile
kurulan tmceler byle bir nans tamad gibi, fiilin nesnesi cansz varlk da olabilir:
I caught his using my tools... If your father catches you using his tools, he'll be very angry...
I found the boys playing in their room... I found the book lying open on the table...
3) Spend/waste +zaman/para birimi + present participle

05 Being a bit of an amateur collector himself, he was naturally very much interested in that peculiar

08 Weakened by successive storms, the bridge was no longer safe. (to succeed = 1. baarl olmak,
baarmak... 2. ardndan gelmek, yerine gemek, halef olmak... Successor = halef, bir ncekinin yerine

KISA GR VE BR UYARI
te ngilizce'de retilmesi de renilmesi de en kolay konulardan birisi... Onun iin okulda, kurslarda ve
gramer kitaplarnda bu derece popler bir konu alsa gerek!...
Bir gramer terimi olarak voice, znenin eylemi yapan, gerekletiren mi, yoksa eylemden etkilenen,
"kabak bana patlayan" kii yada varlk m olduunu belirleyen yap demektir. Active voice = zne
olayn, eylemin failidir... Passive voice = zne eylemin hedefi, eylemden etkilenen, "kabak bana
patlayan" kii yada varlktr.
Edilgen tmceleri kurmak da ok kolaydr, grnce tanmak da... Ama, bir noktaya nemle dikkat
edilmelidir. Gerek iletiim ortamlarnda, etken ve edilgen tmce tercihi rastgele deil, belli koul ve
gerekelere baldr. Bu konuya az aada ayrntlar ile gireceim.
Burada bir uyarda bulunmak istiyorum. Birok kitapta, egzersiz amacyla, anlamca havada kalan, ok
tuhaf rnekler verildiine tank oluyoruz. "She makes good cakes," eklinde bir tmce verip, bunu
edilgene evirmemizi istiyorlar!! = ***Good cakes are made by her... Gzel kekler onun tarafndan
yaplr, veya Onun tarafndan gzel kekler yaplr...

Allah akna, bylesi savruk rneklerle gerek iletiim ortamlarnda karlama olaslmz sfr deil
midir? Bu tr kaynaklara itibar etmeyiniz. Gerek iletiim ortamlarnda kullanlma olasl
dnlmeden sunulan bu tr soyut gramer veya yap rnekleri bizlere yalnzca zarar verebilir. rnekler,
gerek yaam ve iletiim ortamlarna ters dmemelidir.
Bu bakmdan, edilgen tmcelerin de yapsal zelliklerine gemeden nce, bunlarn hangi durum ve
koullarda kullanldklar konusunu nemle ele almak gerekir.
Yeri gelmiken, bir ikayetimi daha dile getireyim. rnek tmceler iin verilen Trke eviriler... Bunlar
da gereki olmak zorunda... Annesi oluna sesleniyor: "Don't walk all over my kitchen floor with those
muddy shoes!" Ardndan da evirisi geliyor: "Bu amurlu ayakkablarnzla mutfamda yrmeyiniz!!"
Kibarln -- ve gerekilikten uzakln da bylesi...

KULLANILDIKLARI YERLER
Gerek iletiim durumlarnda, paa gnlmz nasl dilerse, ister etken ister edilgen tmce kuramayz.
Edilgen tmcelerin tercih edilmesini gerektiren, zorunlu klan belli durumlar vardr.
ngilizcede olaan S+V+O dzeni (yani "aktif tmce") yerine, edilgen tmce yoluyla anlatm gerei
aadaki durumlarda ortaya kar:
1) Olayn kimler tarafndan gerekletirildii bilinmemektedir. "Faili mehul" dr. Bu durumda, esasen,
etken tmce kurulamaz.
The shop was broken into later that night and cleared of all cigarettes and tobacco. (= Fail yada failler
bilinmiyor)
Several people were stopped and robbed in that district last night. (= Yukardaki gibi)
NOT: Faili bilinmemesine ramen, belirsiz zneler kullanlarak etken atya ilerlik kazandrlabilir:
Somebody broke into the shop later that night and cleared it of all cigarettes and tobacco.... Belli bir
iletiim ortamnda, bu tercihin nplana geecei durumlar da oluabilir. Ama genelde dikkatimizi, belirsiz
zneler yerine, olaylar zerine younlatrmay tercih ederiz:
2) evremizdeki belli bir kiiyi sulamaktan kanmak, yada belki kimliini saklamak isteyebiliriz:
Listen to me, boys; I think this letter has been opened and read and then carefully sealed again!
("inizden biri yapmtr" sulamasndan kanyor, dolayl olarak sylyoruz...)
You were seen with a man yesterday afternoon. (=Brak imdi kim grm, kim bana sylemi... nemli
olan senin bir adamla grlm olman...)
3) Olay gerekletirenler deil, olayn kendisi dikkat odadr: Kim tarafndan olursa olsun, olayn
nitelii deimeyecektir:

Such toys must be made of plastic and only non-toxic and non-staining types of paint must be used for the
top coat. (top coat = son kat boya)
The ingredients are poured into a cup and thoroughly stirred.
4) Bilimsel ve teknik metinlerde edilgen tmcelere sk rastlanmasnn nedeni de yukardaki durumdur.
Yazarn kendisini nplana karacak ekilde, "I did this, I did that..." tarznda bir anlatm kullanmas,
okuyucuya / dinleyiciye bilimsel nesnellik adna itici gelir. Ayrca itiraf etmek gerekir ki, edilgen atda
kurulan tmceler, anlatma belli bir "nesnellik" nans katar.
The distance between the stars is measured in terms of light years.
The protein concentration required to saturate the solid phase was determined and the amount of bound
protein was quantified by the micro-bicinchoninic acid protein assay.
5) Etken tmcedeki nesne nplana karlmak, vurgulanmak istenmekte, dolaysyla da edilgen kurulu
tercih edilmektedir:
His death was mourned by the whole nation... His books are now read by millions of people today...
6) "Agent", yani olay gerekletiren kii veya kiiler aikardr; anlmalarna gerek yoktur:
He was crowned the king.
The thieves were caught later that day.
Office mail is now delivered twice a day.
7) Szdizimsel gerekelerle, edilgen tmce kullanm zorunlu hale gelebilir. Bu konuya "participle"
("dangling participles") yaplar ile ilgili blmde deinilmiti:
YANLI : While walking home late last night, a funny-looking man stopped me. (nk burada, "Evine
gitmekte olan tuhaf grnl bir adam beni durdurdu", demi oluruz)
BR ZM YOLU : While walking home late last night, I was stopped by a funny-looking man.
Tekrarlarsak, paa gnlmz nasl dilerse, her durumda ister etken ister edilgen tmce kurarz, diyemeyiz.
Edilgen tmcelerin tercih edilmesini gerektiren, zorunlu klan durumlar vardr.

EDLGEN TMCE YAPISI


To Be + V3
Edilgen tmcede zaman (tense) To Be fiili gsterir. Asl fiil, geili (transitive) bir fiil olmak zorundadr
ve her zaman " V3 " (past participle) biiminde olacaktr. (Fiil eitleri ile ilgili olarak, aada "Edilgen
Tmcelerin eitli zellikleri" blm Madde 1'e bknz.)

present : am, is, are


past : was, were
future: will be

past perfect : had been

Edilgen atda bunlara iki tense daha eklenir:
present continuous : am / is / are being
past continuous : was / were being
* * * * *
Dolaysyla, aktif atdaki 12 tense yer alrken,
edilgen atda yalnzca 8 tense yer almaktadr:

Dolaysyla, "tense" dikkate alnarak, aada rneklen edilgen anlamlar elde edilecektir:
He is being interrogated by the detectives at the moment. = u anda sorgulanyor, sorgulanmakta...
He was interrogated by the police last week. = Geen hafta sorguland, sorgulanmt...
He will be interrogated this afternoon. = Sorgulanacak, sorgulanmakta olacak...
He has been interrogated in the usual manner = Herzamanki yntemle sorgulanm bulunuyor...
He will have been interrogated by the time we get there. = Sorgulanm, sorgusu tamamlanm olacaktr...
ve dierleri... (= toplam sekiz tense)
NOT: Aslnda, edilgen bir tmcenin kuruluu iki deiik yaklamla irdelenebilir:
1. Etken tmceden dnm. Okullarda, kurslarda allagelmi yaklam budur. Etken ve edilgen
tmcelerin farkl yerlerde kullanlmas gerektii vurguland srece, geerli bir yaklamdr. (rnek
verirken dikkatli olmak, gerek iletiim ortamlarnda grlme olasl tamayan dnmlere yer
vermemek gerekir.)
2. Etken (aktif) mastarlarla etken tmceler, edilgen (pasif) mastarlarla edilgen tmceler kurulur:

to beat = yenmek
to love = sevmek
to be seen = grlmek
to be beaten = yenilmek
to be loved = sevilmek

Demek ki yaplacak tek ey To Be fiilini bir yukardaki tabloda gsterdiim 8 tense erevesinde ekerek
tmcenizi kurmaktr. Asl fiil ise her zaman iin = V3 biiminde olacaktr.

BY-BE = AGENT KULLANILMALI MIDIR ?


Olaan durumda, "by-bei" kullanmak, yani agent belirtmek gerei duyulmasa gerekir. nk, eylemi
gerekletiren kii/kiileri ("eski zne") bilsek, belirtmek ve nplana kartmak isteseydik, zaten aktif
tmce kurmay yeleyecektik.
Ancak istina durumlar da vardr. Eer aadaki rneklerde agent kullanlmam olsa, ii bo ve anlamsz
bildirimler olurlard. rdeleyiniz:
This piece of music was composed by Mozart...
This one was painted by Picasso...
Kimi zaman da, dikkat odamz gereiyle "fail" arka plana itilecek, "kaban kimin bana patlad"
bizim iin nplanda olacaktr:
Soldiers' letters may be opened and read by the unit commander in times of war...
Their mail is daily inspected by the sergeant before being given to them...
Troublesome groups were forcefully dispersed by the police.
DKKAT: By-bei kullanldnda, genellikle V3'n hemen ardnda yer alr. Ama, vurgu amacyla, teki
tmle eleriyle yer deitirebilir de.

DKKAT... DKKAT...

Agent kullanm "by" ("tarafndan") kavram ile gerekletirilir ve bilerek, isteyerek, kendi iradesiyle
yapld nanslarn tar. Ancak, bu "bilinli" edim kavramnn geerli olamayaca durumlarda by ---
with dnm geerlik kazanr:
The smoke filled the room. -------- The room was filled with smoke.
Paint covered his jeans. -------- His jeans were covered with paint.

DKKAT... DKKAT...

Usta yazarlarn, edilgen aty "by-bei" ile birlikte kullanarak, olay gerekletirenleri (faili yada
failleri) daha bir vurguladklarn grrz. Burada belki de anonsun geciktiriliyor olmasnn etkin bir rol
oynad dnlebilir.
The breakthrough was achieved by Dr. Palabyk and Dr. Grka, two renowned researchers working in
our University's renewed molecular biology laboratories.
Buradaki anlatm tarz, tmcenin etken atda alaca ekle kyasla ok daha vurgulu ve etkileyici
olmutur.

EDLGEN TMCELERN ETL ZELLKLER


1) Bilindii gibi, dilde tr fiil yer almaktadr:
1. Geili fiiller (transitive verbs) : see, beat, love
2. Geisiz fiiller (intransitive verbs) : run, fall, sleep
3. lgilendirme fiilleri (linking verbs) : be, seem, taste
Bunlar arasnda yalnz birinci grupta yer alan fiillerle edilgen tmceler kurulabilir. nk, eylemi
gerekletiren kii/varlk/zne yannda, bu eylemden kimin/neyin etkilendiini, "kaban kimin bana
patladn" belirten bir kii/varlk/nesne de szkonusudur: Bir gren varsa, bir de grlen; seven varsa
sevilen, yenen varsa yenik den... vardr.

By dream_Catcher

[Ama, tabii, to see fiilini "anlamak" anlamnda kullanyorsanz, o takdirde geisiz fiil olur ve edilgeni
kurulamaz: Aadaki kullanm bu anlamdadr:]
--- We don't allow that sort of behaviour here.
--- Oh, I see. (=Anlyorum)...
[Ama, "Oh, I can see that." ise, = "Bunu grebiliyorum," geili fiil olur.]
Geisiz fiillerde, znenin yapt eylemden etkilenen bir baka kii yada varlk yoktur. Yani, gramatik
bir nesne de yoktur ve edilgen tmce kurulamaz. lgilendirme filleri ise, zne ile, onun bir zelliini veya
iinde bulunduu durumu ilikilendirir. Ayrca bir nesne yine szkonusu deildir. rneklersek:
DORU : She fell into the water.
MANTIKSIZ : The water was fallen into by her.

DORU : She was running.


MANTIKSIZ : (The road?) was being run by her.

DORU : She is beautiful.


OLANAKSIZ : ???

DORU : He became a beggar.


EL NSAF : A beggar was become by him ??? Onun tarafndan bir dilenci olunuldu???

DORU : Your room looks very clean.


EL NSAF : Being very clean is being looked by your room ???
Besbellidir ki, "Su, onun tarafndan iine dld... Yol koulmaktayd..." gibi kavramlar mantk d
nermeler saylacaktr. Dierlerini de, ad en deliye km airden bile duysak, herhalde yine
yadrgardk...
NEML NOT: Farkl dillerdeki "geili-geisiz" fiillerin birebir akaca sanlmamaldr. Yeni bir fiil
iin szle bakarken "vt." veya "vi." olma zelliini not etmenizde yarar vardr, derim...

246

2) Bununla birlikte, geisiz fiiller de belli ilge veya belirteler ile btnleerek, yeni ve geili bir
anlam kazanabilirler. Bu durumda, ilge yada belirte edilgen tmcede asl fiilden hemen sonra yer
almaldr.
OK NEML: Konuurken de bunlar bir solukta ve tek birim halinde syleriz:
They laughed at her. -------- She was laughed at.
No one slept in the bed. -------- The bed wasn't slept in.
Someone sat on my hat. -------- My hat was sat on.
People talked of his mysterious death for years afterwards. -------- His mysterious death was talked of
for years afterwards.
DKKAT... DKKAT... Bu yapya her fiil, her ilge ve/veya partikl ile oturmaz. Daha nce bir rneini
grmedike, uygulamadan uzak durmanz neririm. rnein, "He went to the house," tmcesinin
edilgeni kurulamaz.
te birka rnek daha...
This silly correspondence must be put a stop to.
His love for his children was taken much advantage of.
Ancak, bu tr tmceler iin deiik bir dzenleme gze ve kulaa daha "doal" gelecektir:
It's time we put a stop to this silly correspondence.
Much advantage was taken of his love for his children.
Our warning was paid little attention to.
-------- Little attention was paid to our warning.

The way they had arranged things was found no fault with. (Kulaa hi de ho gelmiyor...)
-------- No fault was found with the way they had arranged things.
Sonuta alnacak bir ders de udur: Yazarken, tmcenizin ilk kurduunuz ekli ile albenisine kaplp
srklenmeyiniz. Yapy biraz daha yourun ve irdeleyin; bakalm daha ne ekiller alacaklar...

3) ift nesne alan fiillerle iki deiik edilgen tmce elde edilecektir:

Someone gave her a present.


247

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

She was given a present.


A present was given to her.
My friend brought us some warm clothes.
We were brought some warm clothes.
Some warm clothes were brought for us.

Geri, edilgen dnmde genelde kii ile balayan seenek daha yaygndr, ama aslnda bu seimin
vurgulanmak istenen anlama gre yapldna dikkat ediniz. (Dilbilgisi kitaplarnda "direct object indirect object = dolaysz nesne - dolayl nesne, terimleri kullanlr.)

4) Edilgen bir tmcede How? Nasl? sorusuna yant veren tarz zarflar genellikle V3'ten hemen nce
gelir:
Somebody opened the door slowly. -------- The door was slowly opened.
They brought up the child well. -------- The child was well brought up.
NOT: Tersine bir durumda ise kyamet kopmaz. Bu "kural", kesin olmaktan ok, bir "probabilite
hesabn" dile getiriyor. rnein, "nicely done" yaps, "done nicely" yapsna gre ok daha yaygnken,
"answered correctly" ibaresinde durum "fifty-fifty" dir, diyebilirim.
* * * * *
5) DKKAT... DKKAT... Snavlarda en ok dlen yanllklardan birisi, aktif-pasif dnm
srasnda eski zne-nesne'ye ilikin tekil-oul zelliklerinin gzden karlmasdr:
We have mailed the letter today...
YANLI : The letter have been mailed today.
DORU : The letter has been mailed today.
* * * * *
6) "Nobody, nothing" gibi olumsuzluk belirten szcklerle balayan tmceleri edilgen atya evirirken
zel dikkat gerekiyor. Tmce sonunda "by nobody/nothing" beini kullanmayacamza gre, buradaki
olumsuzluu bir baka yntemle aktarmak zorundayz. Aadaki yanl kkndaki "edilgen" rnek, yani
"any" ile balayan bir olumsuz tmce ngilizce'de geersiz bir yapdr. Dier klar inceleyiniz:
ACTIVE : Nobody offered me anything.
248

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

PASSIVE : --------

YANLI
DORU
Anything was not offered to me.
I was offered nothing.
I wasn't offered anything.
Nothing was offered to me.

7) Yardmc fiiller szkonusu olduunda, edilgen at, yaln edilgen mastar kullanm ile gerekletirilir.
Biliyorsunuz, "yaln" terimi ile, mastar'n "to" suz halini kastediyoruz:
We can see it. -------- It can be seen. (present edilgen mastar = to be seen)
We could do it. -------- It could be done. (present edilgen mastar = to be done)
We could not do it. -------- It could not be done. (present edilgen olumsuz mastar = not to be done)
People must not leave any litter behind. -------- No litter must be left behind. (present edilgen mastar =
to be left -- buradaki dnm, yukarda madde 6'da akland gibidir)
We should have told him. -------- He should have been told. (perfect edilgen mastar = to have been told
= kendisine sylenilmi olmak)
We should not have told him. -------- He should not have been told. (perfect edilgen olumsuz mastar =
not to have been told = kendisine sylenilmemi olmak, sylenilmi olmamak)

8) Feel, hear, see, watch, notice, observe fiillerinden sonra, aktif atda yaln mastar, pasif atda ise tam
mastar kullanlr. Ancak, let fiili bu kuraln dndadr ve her iki atda da yaln mastar alr: (Umarm, bu
kadar ayrntya isyan etmiyorsunuzdur; yabanc bir dile "bi-hakkn vakf" olmann kolay i olduunu kim
sylemi ki...)
They heard her scream. -------- She was heard to scream.
People saw the car stop. -------- The car was seen to stop.
249

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

They let us go -------- We were let go.


Aadaki tr dnmleri de bu balk altnda gzden geirebiliriz:
We very much regret your decision. -------- Your decision is much to be regretted.
If we believe (trust) him, ...etc. -------- If he is to be believed (trusted, ...etc.
* * * * *
9) Gerund ieren yaplarn edilgene dntrm glk oluturmaz. Aktif gerund'lar pasife evirmek
(ve bunun yannda mantn gerektirdii deiiklikleri yapmak) yeterlidir:
I remember your being taken to the hospital. (= I remember their taking you to the hospital.)
Hastaneye gtrln hatrlyorum.

She tries to avoid being seen with him. (= She tries to avoid people seeing her with him)
Onunla birlikte grlmekten kanmaa alyor.

I hate being laughed at. (= I hate people laughing at me)


Bana glnlmesinden nefret ederim

She loves being taken out to dinner. (= She loves people taking her out to dinner)
Yemee karlmaa baylr.

He hated being called "Mstk". (= He hated everybody calling him "Mstk")


"Mstk" diye arlmaktan nefret ediyordu.

I resent having been punished for nothing. (= I resent their having punished me for nothing)
Bo yere cezalandrlm olmam teessfle karlyorum.
* * * * *
10) Participle'lar ile iimiz daha da kolaydr:
They saw the thief running away. -------- The thief was seen running away.
250

joshua.ranad@gmail.com
________________________________________________________________________
By dream_Catcher

They found him working at his desk. -------- He was found working at his desk.
The rescue team found the children playing in the woods. -------- The children were found playing in
the woods.
The authorities often keep us waiting in long queues. -------- We are often kept waiting in long queues.
* * * * *
11) zellikle konuma dilinde, BE fiili yerine GET fiilinin kullanld rnekler olduka yaygndr.
Giderek, aralarnda bir nans fark domu olduunu da grrz:
It was left at home. (= Bile bile)
It got left at home. (= Farkna varlmakszn)
A lot of people got hurt in the process. (= Hesapta yoktu)
There's no doubt that you'll get duly punished. (Be=Get)
Not very many fish get caught nowadays. (Akllandlar m acaba?)
* * * * *
12) Etken atda kurulmalarna karn, edilgen anlam veren aadaki rnekleri not ediniz. Trkede de
"Kitap yok satyor" demiyor muyuz?
His latest book is selling rather badly... The library closes at seven... This story reads well for the
suggested age group... This dress won't wash...The furniture needs polishing... Your room definitely
needs cleaning... The car wants washing... The car drives much more comfortably now...
* * * * *
13) BR GLK: Soru tmcelerinin edilgen atya dntrlmesi, yada dorudan edilgen soru
oluturmada belli lde glk ekildiine tank oluyoruz. Egzersiz iin ilk azda iki farkl yntem
nerilebilir. Zamanla bu glk kendiliinden alm olacaktr:
a. Soru tmcesini dz-tmceye evirdikten sonra edilgen atya dntrmek ve yeniden soru tmcesi
oluturmak:
Didn't she tidy up her room?
She didn't tidy up her room.
Her room wasn't tidied up.
Wasn't her room tidied up?
Didn't she tidy up her room? ----- Wasn't her room tidied up?
b. Trke eviri kanalyla, edilgen tmceyi kurduktan sonra yeniden ingilizceye evirmek:
251

joshua.ranad@gmail.com

Who cleaned the house?


Evi kim temizledi?

Ev kimin tarafndan temizlenildi?


Who was the house cleaned by?
Who cleaned the house? ----- Who was the house cleaned by?

ARA TEST -- 02

09 -- When must we buy the tickets?
-- When must the tickets be bought?
10 -- What should people do under such circumstances?

TRKE'YE EVR AISINDAN BAZI NCE AYRINTILAR

"Sugar is sold by the kilo," ile "Sorry, sugar is sold out" (= Sorry, we're sold out of sugar") arasndaki
fark grp deerlendirebiliyor musunuz?
Aklamas: Birinci tmce edilgendir: "to sell" fiilinin "present passive" biimi olan "is + V3" ile
kurulmutur: eker kilo ile satlr...
kinci tmcede ise "is + sfat" yaps vardr. "to sell" fiilinin V3 (past participle) biimi sfat nitelii ile
kullanlmtr. "to be sold out" = bitmi / bitirmi durumda olmak... Yani, yap olarak, "He is ill,"
tmcesinden hibir fark yoktur. (rnein, "He is gone. = Gitti, burada yok," eklindeki tmce de bu
kalptandr. "Gone" burada bir sfat niteliinde olup, "gitmi durumda olmak, burada olmamak" anlamna
gelir.)
Parantez iindeki kullandm deyim de "to be sold out of sth" eklindedir: = "zgnz, hi ekerimiz
kalmad; hepsi satld"...
"My money is stolen!" tmcesinin evirisi = "Aaa, param alnm !!" eklindedir. Yani, past participle
"stolen" szcn yine sfat nitelii ile alglamamz gerekir: "Param alnm durumda" deniliyor...
DKKAT: "Param alnr" eklinde bir yorum (edilgen tmce yorumu) besbellidir ki yanl olur.
te yandan, "My money has been stolen!" eklindeki tmce ise edilgen atdadr ve Trke'ye "Param
alnm bulunuyor" (=u anda paraszm) eklinde eviri verecektir.
Demek ki herzaman iin en dorusu, karlatnz yaplar balam iinde deerlendirmektir. Anlam
belirleyen balamdr. Balam herzaman kraldr:
If I am beaten (up) for something I did not do, who can I complain to? (= edilgen yap: dvlmek, dayak
yemek)
Well, I guess I am the sort that hates to give up and admit he is beaten! (to be + sfat yaps = "Hayatta
yenilmi olmay asla kabul edecek adam deilim!)
253

Tabii, Trke'ye en ilgin eviri veren yaplardan birisi de, "I was born ..." eklindeki ifadedir.. Trke
karl "dodum" eklinde olan bu yap, dikkat ederseniz, ngilizce'de edilgen bir yapdr: "to bear - bore
- born" = ocuk tamak, dnyaya getirmek fiilinin edilgen halidir.
Sonuta, onlar "Dnyaya getirilmiim..." diyorlar; ama tabiatyla ne onlarn ifade tarz syledii bizim
ifade tarzmz balar, ne de bizimkisi onlarnkisini...

OK "IK" BR EDLGEN TMCE TP


Geldik, en "k" edilgen tmce tipine: Belirsiz znenin, belirgin zneye dntrlmesi... Belirsiz zne -latife etmiyorum -- byk krgnlklara bile yol aabilecek lde canskc bir anlatm esi olabiliyor:
- They say that... / It is said that... = Diyorlar ki... / Deniliyor ki...
- Kim diyor, kim? Syle de dostumuzu dmanmz bilelim!
A) Oysa belirsiz zne, bilim, diplomasi, vb dilinde zellikle aranlan ve yaygn kullanlan tmce tipidir.
Besbellidir ki, hava basncndan her sz ediimizde Toricelli'yi anmak gerekmiyor. Diplomaside de ser
verip sr vermek istemiyoruz:
It is known that... It has been shown that... It is assumed that... It is often claimed that... It can easily be
demonstrated that... It has been reported that...
B) Gnlk dilde ise, tam tersine, belirsiz zneyi belirgin nitelie dntrme abas doaldr. Aadaki
rnekleri izleyiniz: "That" tmceliindeki zne, genel zne haline getiriliyor. "That" tmceliinden ise
geriye yalnzca mastar (infinitive) kalyor.
DKKAT... DKKAT... Olayn kendisinin, dnlme/konuulma/bildirilme zamanna gre ezamanl
olmas veya daha ncesinde gereklemi olmas, present mastar yada perfect mastar seimini
belirleyecektir:
Everybody knows that she is virtuous. -------- It is known that she is virtuous. -------- She is known to be
virtuous. Kendisinin erdemli bir hanm olduu bilinir / biliniyor... [Erdemlilik hali ve biliniyor olmas
birbirine gre ezamanl = present mastar kullanm]
They think that he is jealous of his wife. -------- It is thought that he is jealous of his wife. -------- He is
thought to be jealous of his wife. Karsn kskandna inanlyor... [Yukardaki gibi = present mastar

LER DZEY UYGULAMALAR


Aada ileri dzey bilgiler sunulmaktadr. Ulamak istediiniz seviyeden yana ok fazla iddial
deilseniz bu blm atlayabilirsiniz.
Yalnz, i snavlara gelince durum biraz farkl. Snavlar dzenleyen kiilerin sizlerden bu derece "ileri"
dzeyde ingilizce beklentisi bulunmayabilir, hatta kendileri bu bilgiye sahip olmayabilir... Bu blmde
reneceklerinizi snavlarda uygulayp uygulamayacanz konusunda, snav dzenleyenlerin
beklentisini sezgilerinizle ayrtrmaa alnz.
RNEK: II. Tip if-tmcelikler indirect dnmde tense deiikliine uramaz, ayn kalrlar. Oysa,
oktan semeli bir snav sorusunun klarnda gerek Tip II gerekse Tip III birlikte neriliyor olabilir.
Acaba, ne derece "bilinli" bir sorudur? Snav dzenleyenlerin sizden beklentisi nedir? Bilgisayara hangi
k "doru" olarak yklenmi olacaktr? Bu sorularn yantn kestirmek ok g. Sezgilerinize gvenmek
zorundasnz.
Ksacas, yurtiinde gireceiniz dil snavlar, ileri dzey ngilizce'de farkl tellerden alyor olabilir.
rnekleri yaanmtr... Ama, yurtdnda yada yurtiinde anadili ngilizce olan kimseler tarafndan
hazrlanm bir snava giriyorsanz, aadaki kurallara kesin uymanz yerinde olur.
A Genelde unu syleyebiliriz: Kuramsal olarak, "past" tense tmceler "past perfect" tmcelere
dntrlr. Ama bu, her iki tmcelikteki eylemlerin birbirine greli zaman dilimleri bir anlam
karklna yol amyorsa ou kez uygulanmayan bir kuraldr. zellikle de konuma dilinde "es"
geildii grlr. Aadaki rneklerden ilkinde tense deitirimi kanlmaz, ikincisinde ise yant ift
seeneklidir:

"I was in love with her." -------- He said that he had been in love with her. (Tmce konuulduu zamana
gre gemi bir dnemden sz ediyordu. Bu, imdi bulunduumuz konuma gre "gemiin gemii",
dolaysyla da past perfect olur. Bir zamanlar onu sevmi olduunu syledi...
"Ali was here on Monday."
-- She said that Ali was here/there on Monday.
-- She said that Ali had been here/there on Monday.
Neredeyse farkedilmeyecek bir nansla, her ikisi de geerli...
B Past continuous tense, tamamlanm bir eylemden sz edilmedii srece, ayn kalr. Past perfect
continuous'a dntrlmez:
"I was thinking of paying a visit to her, but then I changed my mind." -------- He said he had been
thinking of paying a visit to her, but had then changed his mind.
"When I saw her, she was doing her morning shopping." -------- He said that when he saw her she was
doing her morning shopping. (She had been doing... eklini tercih ederseniz: Ama sonra alverii
bitirdiini de grdm, demi olursunuz. Oysa asl tmce, yalnzca "alveri yaparken grdm" diyordu...)
C zellikle yaz dilinde past tense tmceler olaan durumda past perfect'e dntrlecektir. Ancak hi
de ender olmayan istisnalarn da sralayalm:
a) To be fiilinin past perfect dnm ok enderdir, nk genellikle anlam kaymasna yol aacaktr:
"All the paintings we saw there were authentic"
YANLI : He told us all the paintings they had seen there had been authentic... = Eskiden otantiktiler,
sonradan sahteleri ile deitirildiler... anlamn verecektir.
DORU : He told us that all the paintings they had seen there were authentic... = nk, "bir zamanlar"
deil, "geni zamanda" otantik...
b) Zaman bildiren zarf-tmcelikler, genelde past simple / past continuous tense'lerini korur, past perfect
dnmne uramazlar. Ana-tmceliin durumu ise seeneklidir:
"When we lived / were living in stanbul, we often visited the museums."
-- She told me that when they lived /were living in stanbul, they often visited / had often visited the
museums.
D If'li tmcelerde, anlam kaymasna yol aacandan, Tip II iin herhangi bir deitirme uygulanmaz.
Tip II'nin genel geerlii olan bir PRESENT anlam ilettiini unutmaynz. te yandan Tip III iin -- zaten
srt duvara dayanm, daha geriye gidebilecei bir zaman dilimi bulunmadndan -- herhangi bir
deitirim haliyle szkonusu deildir.
"If I weren't desperate, I wouldn't do such a thing. = aresiz kalmadka byle birey yapmam... Ancak

"If I were you, I'd wait a little longer." ------
He told me... He urged me... He advised me to wait a little longer. Yada, ------
He suggested that I wait a little longer.
E "I wish... I'd rather... It's time..." gibi subjunctive yaplardan sonra da tense deitirimi uygulanmaz.
Aksi takdirde, tpk if'li tmcelerde olduu gibi anlam kaymasna yol alacaktr:
"I wish you didn't smoke so much." Keke bu kadar ok sigara imesen...
She said that she wished I didn't smoke so much... Burada "hadn't smoked" tercihi, asl tmcenin de "I
wish you hadn't smoked so much" eklinde olduu, yani "Keke gemite imemi olsaydn" anlamnn
iletildii anlamna gelecektir...
F Kim Atatrk'mzn, Leonardo Da Vinci yada Einstein'in szlerinde deiiklie cret edebilir ki?
"Vecize" ler ve tarih biliminde kullanlan tmceler tense deitirim kurallar dnda kalr.
-- The teacher reminded us that the Republic was established in 1923... Their guide explained to his group
of tourists that Atatrk was born in Selanik (Salonica), a city which was part of the Ottoman Empire in
those days...
Before the twenties, Einstein had already told us that E equals MC square...
Yine de, koullar bir hayli deimise, yada yce kiinin grlerine pek katlmyorsak, inenmeyecek
bir kural deil:
- By the time he was twenty, Marx had already told us that someday the working classes would inevitably
come to power...
G Her zaman iin en geerli kuraln u olduunu akldan karmayalm: Dolayl anlatmda tense, kii,
yer ve zaman zarflar asndan herhangi bir deiiklie gidilmesi yalnzca "mantn gerektirdii"
durumlar iin geerlidir. Bu Blmn banda yeterince ayrntlarna girmitik.
H Would / should / could / might / ought to / used to / had better... gibi yardmc fiillerle kurulan yaplar
ounlukla tense deitirim kapsam dnda kalr. Aksi takdirde anlam kaymasna yol alm olacaktr:
"I would like to go." ------ She said she would like to go. (nk, "She said she would have liked to
go," veya "She said she would like to have gone..." gibi tercihler szleri genelleme boyutundan karp,
sanki gemite byle bir olay yada durum szkonusu olmumu anlamna gelecektir.

it there and then...

THE + SIFAT
Bu yap "snf ad, kollektif ad" oluturur: Anlamca ve gramerde ouldur; oul fiil alr; kullanlacak adl
da (zamir) "they" olacaktr:
the rich = zenginler
the poor = fakirler
the unemployed = isizler
the mentally ill = akl hastalar
the mentally handicapped = zihinsel zrller
The mentally ill should be treated in proper hospitals, shouldn't they?
The rich get richer; the poor beget children... (to beget children = ocuk sahibi olmak -- ancak bu deyimi
adal veya kinayeli kullanmlar iin saklayn. Olaan deyim: "to have children")(Ayrca "bring up their
children" (U.K.), "raise their children" (U.S.A.) = "ocuklarn yetitirirler" de diyebilirdik)
We need to build more animal shelters where the hungry are fed, the sick are properly looked after, and
the abandoned are given care... ("the abandoned": sfat olarak "past participle" yaps kullanld: "to
abandon" fiilinin V3 hali... Yani, "terkedilen., terkedilmi" sfatndan, "terkedilenler, terkedilmi olanlar"
anlamna kollektif ad)
We produce quality footware for the fashionably inclined. (Moday izleyenler iin nitelikli ayakkablar
retiyoruz.]
This site is for the health-conscious and the fitness-minded. [Bu site, salna zen gsteren ve formunda
kalmaa kararl (kimseler) iindir.]
NOT: Son iki rnee dikkat ederseniz, ayn zamanda bir sfat bei olarak kullanlabilecek bu tr
yaplarda "tire" koyup koymamak bir hayli "keyfi" bir uygulama... Son yllarda, ok sayda szckten
oluan sfat-beklerini ad-szcklerin bana getirip, bunlar kestirme yoldan nitelemek eiliminde art
var. Kimileri ise, bu uygulamann snrl tutulmasnda srarl... Bu yapy, birka madde aada "ki
Haftalk Tatil" bal altnda inceleyebilirsiniz.
The biggest problem the country is facing today is the ever-increasing numbers of the unemployed as well
as that of the unemployable...
"the unemployed" = isizler... "the unemployable" = zaten ie alnamayacak derecede niteliksiz olan
kiiler... [Bu son rnek tmcemi, "Bu lkede yetimi adam ok..." aldanmas iinde olanlara adyorum.]

KARILATIRMA DII KAVRAMLAR

Bir mantk kural olarak, derecelendirilmesi olanak d kavramlara iaret eden sfat veya belirteler
(zarflar), karlatrma (comparative) veya stnlk (superlative) derecelerinde kullanlamaz.
rnein: same, only, unique, first, last, primary, ultimate, final, total... gibi kavramlar bu kategoriye girer.
Besbellidir ki, "samer, the samest" [daha ayn, en ayn...] gibi nermeler mantk ve kullanm ddr.
DKKAT: Bununla birlikte, tpk Trke'deki "en birinci..." eklindeki aslnda manta aykr kimi
kullanmlarn, vurgu amacyla (yada, reklamlarn renkli dnyasnda), ngilizce'de de geerli olduunu
grrz:
stanbul is without a doubt one of the most unique cities of the world...
The team compiling the most total points at the end of the season shall be declared the champion. [ki
burada manta aykr bir anlam da szkonusu deil: "en yksek toplam puan alan takm...]
Sizlere TOEFL snavlarnda km ilgin bir soru sunuyorum:
# As twins, the two sisters look very .............. .
a. alike

b. like

c. likely

d. identical

Doru yant "a" kk = birbirine benzemek... nk


# To look alike = Birbirine benzemek...
# To look like smb or sth = Bir kimseye yada nesneye benzemek... (Bu kalp kendisinden sonra gramatik
nesne gerektirir)
# To look likely = Olas grnmek, ihtimal dahilinde grnmek...
# "Very identical" : Mantk d ve geersiz bir kavram. (Besbelli ki, "identical twins" kavramndan yola
klarak bir eldirici oluturmak amalanm -- ama eer "very" szc olmasayd, "to look identical"
doru bir ifade olurdu)

THAN THAT OF --- THAN THOSE OF


Tipik bir tuzak snav sorusu... Karlatrma yaparken, elmalarla elmalar, armutlarla armutlar ayn
kefeye koymanz esastr. Tabii burada, "elma, armut" benzetmesi ile, ayn ve farkl snftan gramer
birimlerini kastediyorum.
Aadaki tmce ok iyi bir eldirici: nk Trke'ye evrildiinde geerli bir yap veriyor. Ama
gramer olarak kesinlikle yanl:
**His salary as a bus driver is much higher than a teacher. Otobs fr olarak kendisinin maa bir
retmenden ok yksek!...

Yukardaki tmcede yaplan mantk hatasn, Trke grmezden geliyor. Oysa dikkatli bir zgleme ile,
"retmeninkinden" (yani, "retmenin maandan") dememiz gerekirdi. ngilizce ite bu hatay
balamyor ve aadaki yapy doru kabul ediyor:
His salary as a bus driver is much higher than that of a teacher. Otobs fr olarak kendisinin maa bir
retmeninkinden ok yksek.
Baka bir deyile, "higher than the salary of a teacher" eklinde tekrara dmemek iin "higher than that
of a teacher" yapsna yneliyoruz.
te baka rnekler:
The hall in this house is much larger than that in the previous one. [rnein ev ararken yapacanz bir
karlatrma... "that" burada "the one," veya "the hall" yerine geiyor]
I wonder if it will ever be possible to travel at speeds greater than that of light. [nkinden daha yksek
hzlarda...]
Saturn's magnetic field is much weaker than that of Jupiter. [Jpiter'inkinden...]
Positional error with x-rays is much larger than that with optical light. [optik k ile "olduunkinden"]
Most of the highways in Germany are wider than those in the Balkan countries. ["those" = the ones, the
highways...]
Those with multiple jobs naturally have a much higher income than those with only one job. [Birden ok
ite alan kiilerin geliri tabiatyla tek ite alan kiilerinkinden ok daha yksek...]
te size, Practical English dergi dizimizden aldm etin bir rnek daha:
"Transcribed first in the IPA alphabet, and then in that of my humble own." [nce IPA alfabesinde,
ardndan da naiz bendenizin alfabesinde yazlm olarak...]
Bu son tmcedeki "that" szcnn "alphabet" szcn tekrarlamamak iin ve onun yerine
kullanldn zebiliyorsanz, ngilizce'de gerekten ok yol almsnz anlamna gelecektir...

Zalim bir rnek oldu, ama hayatmn krk yl bu muhterem zevatn becerdikleri ve beceremediklerini
(ikisi de ayn kapya kyor!) demekle getikten sonra, tmceleri eksik brakmakla nezaket borcumu da
demi saylabilirim...
like = gibi, (ama aslnda yle deil) eklindeki bir benzerlii dile getirirken;
Gerek Demirel gerekse Ecevit birer baba gibi...
as = "ki kendisi gerekten yledir" anlam verir ve Trke'ye genellikle "olarak" szc ile evirilir:
Gerek Demirel gerekse Ecevit birer baba olarak...
rnekleri inceleyiniz:
My friend can climb trees like a monkey. (= maymun gibi... ama aslnda kendisi maymun deil tabii)
Orang-utans, as arboreal animals, can climb trees with the greatest ease. (= Bir orman hayvan olarak,

My friend rides horses like a cowboy. (= kovboy gibi at biner, ama aslnda kendisi kovboy deildir

As a cowboy, he is supposed to know a lot about horses. (= Bir kovboy olarak...)
She lived her consequent like a slave... (= mecazi, benzetme olarak: Bundan sonraki hayatn bir kle gibi

UYARI:
Konuma dilinde, aada vereceim rneklerde bala (conjunction) olarak "as" yerine "like"
kullanlmas art eiliminde olmakla birlikte, snavlarda (zellikle de her ikisinin birlikte verildii tuzak

She hardly does any work. = Neredeyse hi almaz!..
She hardly ever goes out. Hemen hemen hi dar kmaz.

How can I accept this present. I hardly know you. Sizi doru drst tanmyorum ki...

He hardly looked at it. Hemen hi bakmad; kesinlikle incelemedi. yle bir gz att.

Nowadays, she scarcely comes here. Pek uramyor; ok ender uruyor...


"Barely" bunlardan biraz farkl ve Trke'ye "ucu ucuna" gibi bir kavramla evrilebilir:
She was barely sixteen. Onaltsnda ya var ya yoktu; yeni basmt... (Oysa, "hardly" veya "scarcely" =
"henz onalt yanda yoktu" anlam verecekti.)

POSSIBILITY & PROBABILITY


"OLANAK"LILIK & OLASILIK

Yeni Trke'mizde, sonunda arapsana benzetmi olduumuz bu iki kavram (eskiden "imkan" ve
"ihtimal" yle deildi) ngilizce'de kesin snrlarla ayrlyor. Cole Porter'n nl caz arksndan
esinlenerek:
Baby, it isn't because I shouldn't do it... And you know it isn't because I couldn't do it... And it isn't
because I wouldn't do it or even I might not do it... It's just because I don't feel like doing it today...
Yapmamam gerektii iin deil... Biliyorsun ki, yapamayacam, beceremeyeceim iin de deil... Hi
yapmam anlamna da gelmiyor... Hatta yapma olaslm olmad anlamna bile gelmiyor... Yalnzca
bugn pek canm istemiyor.
Bu konuya, Yardmc fiiller konusunda deinmitik. Bir kez daha nemle vurgulamak istedim.

"WON'T" 'UN MARFETLER


Books won't stay banned. They won't burn. Ideas won't go to jail. In the long run of history, the censor
and the inquisitor have always lost. The only sure weapon against bad ideas is better ideas. The source of
better ideas is wisdom. The surest path to wisdom is a liberal education. (Alfred Whitney, Essays on
Education)
Books won't stay banned. = "Kitaplar yasakl kalmayacaklar, direnecekler; zincirlerini kracaklardr,"
nansn veriyor... Ayn ekilde: "They won't burn," tmcesini, "Onlar yakp yok edemezsiniz," eklinde
evirebilirsiniz. Dolaysyla, "Ideas won't go to jail." = Fikirleri hapsedemezsiniz; fikirler hapsedilemez...
nk, "will" yardmc fiiliniz, sradan "gelecek zaman" dnda, burada grld ekilde kuvvetli bir
istek, irade de belirtebilir. Ayn erevede, olumsuz kalplarla "izin vermeme" nans da aktarlabilir. te

THOUGH
Olaan kullanmda "although" ile birebir eanlaml olan bu szck, ondan farkl olarak, ayrca tmce
yada temel-tmcelik sonunda "however" anlam ile de kullanlabilir. Konumada zel bir tonlama
gerektirir. Yazda, tmceden virglle ayrlr. Trke'ye "geri, ama, bununla birlikte, yine de,
maamafih..." gibi anlamlarla evrilebilir:
We have worked very hard. I can't say it was much appreciated, though... = Geri, takdir grdn de
pek syleyemem ya!
He kept making mistakes. He wasn't aware of it, though, because no one ever corrected him. = Ama...

EVET, GELMED --- HAYIR, GELD !!


ngilizce'de, "Evet, gelmedi -- Hayr, geldi?" diyemezsiniz... Trke'nin salad bu anlatm olanana
ngilizce'de sahip deilsiniz.
Sorunuz ister "Geldi mi?" (Did she come?), isterse "Gelmedi mi?" (Didn't she come?) olsun...
Yantnz ya "Evet, geldi" (Yes, she did) yada "Hayr, gelmedi" (No, she didn't) olmak zorunda:
Q -- Did she come?
A -- Yes, she did.
A -- No, she didn't

Q -- Didn't she come?


A -- Yes, she did.

Ah! Trke'mizde ne derece zengin anlatm olanaklarmz var... Ama ne yazk ki, adamlardaki dil ve
anadil bilin ve sevgisinin krnts olumam bizde...

"FARTHER" ve "FURTHER"
Genelde dikkat edilmesi gereken nokta: Farther, fiziki mesafeler iin tercih edilir. Further ise, bu anlamda
kullanlabildii gibi, ayrca derece, miktar, kademe belirtmek amacyla kullanlabilir. ou zaman soyut
ve mecazi olan bu kullanm Trke'ye "daha fazla, daha ileri dzeyde, daha ileri boyutlarde, baka
daha..." gibi eviriler verir:
The place proved to be farther than I'd supposed it would be.

"Coffee is a drink. Tea is another drink." tmcesi, ve "in ink", "with a pencil" deyilerini belleinize

03 b. What thoughtless of him! (yanl)
Dorusu: "How thoughtless of him!" olmalyd. (Amma da dncesizlik etmi / ediyor!...) Ksaca
aklayalm: Bu vurgulu yap kategorisinde, adlar iin "what", sfat ve zarflar (belirteler) iin "how"

Bu konu, Blm 16 (Pf Noktalar) "Youn Anlatmlar" balkl maddede ayrntlaryla incelenmitir.

AZCIK FELSEFE: Yabanclara rettiimiz kurallar kendi dilimizde yada gnlk konumada nasl da
atr atr ineyebiliyoruz. ineyince de, bu "vurgulu anlatm" yada dpedz "yaratclk" oluyor. Eh,
zaten yle olmasa, bir bakma hala dedelerimizin konutuu gibi konuuyor olurduk... Ksacas, "kurallar
inenebilir", ama nce (ve zellikle de snavlarda) "kurallar" aslnda bildiimizi herkese kantlamamz
gerek. nk, "dilime kfreden bari dilimi biliyor olsa"...
06 a. A club for women = A womens' club (yanl)
"Women" zaten ouldur. Dorusu: women's... Hi ikayet etmeyin: Dorusunu ayn satrda "children's
toy" ile zaten gsterdim.
"The son of Pharaoh's daughter was the daughter of Pharaoh's son." Eski bir muamma... Trke'de ok
kolay: Firavun'un kznn olu, Firavun'un kznn oludur." ngilizce' de ise, anlaml olabilmesi iin,
"daughter-of-Pharaoh's" eklinde tek nite halinde okumalsnz...
07 c. This soup is too hot for me to drink it. (yanl)
"it" fazlalk... DKKAT: Trke'de, "Bu orba, onu imem iin..." ok doal olduu iin, bu kategori
tmcelerde kolaylkla hataya debiliriz... Dikkat ederseniz dier tmcelerdeki "infinitive" (mastar)
yaplarnn ayr birer nesnesi var. Ama burada, "to drink" fiilinin nesnesi, zaten "this soup" ve bir adl
(zamir) ile yinelenmesi fuzuli...
"b" kknda "to prove" fiili, ou zaman rastlanaca gibi, sadece"to be" fiili yerine kullanld. Yani
"proved" = "was" -- "idi" veya, "olduu grld, olduunu grdk" gibi ifadelerle evirebilirsiniz.
"too" szcnn olumsuz nansna herzaman dikkat ediniz. evirisi genelde, "--- mayacak kadar"...
"Seimleri kazanamayacak lde, sevilmeyen bir adamd."
08 b. "Please give me some more." "I'm sorry, but there isn't some left." (yanl)
Eminim ki burada hi glk ekmediniz. Dorusu "there isn't any left"...
a. "You may come and see me any day, but you must come some day." "Any" ve "some" szcklerini
vurgulu okuyunuz ve tmcenin anlamna bknz.: "Beni herhangi bir gn gelip grebilirsin; ama birgn
mutlaka gelmelisin."
te yandan, "olumlularda some, olumsuzlarda ve sorularda any" kuralndan dolay "b" kk yanlken,
ayn durum neden "c" ve "e" klar iin geerli deil? nk bu iki tmcede soru sormuyor, yorum
yapyoruz. Cevabn "evet" olaca beklentimizi de ekliyoruz.
09 d. "Which feet" !! (yanl)
Ancak krkayaklara sorulabilecek bir soru...
"a" kkndaki "you two" = siz ikiniz...
10 c. She is so stupid as I thought she would be. (yanl)

21 b. You won't learn to speak Turkish properly unless you don't come here and stay with us for a
couple of months. (yanl)
"unless" anlam molekl iki anlam atomundan oluur: if + not... Dolaysyla, ayn tmcelik iinde hem
"unless" hem "not" yer alamaz. Dorusu: "unless you come... etc."
Ama tabii, burada olduu gibi, ana-tmcelik olumsuz olabilir.
Gl eldirici: e. I shan't write to him unless he writes to me.
shan't = shall not... Demek ki bu tmce, 1. Tip koul tmcesi kategorisindedir.
22 e. I wish I didn't break it. But since I have, I will pay for it. (yanl)
Tmcenin geliinden, sz edilen nesneyi "krm olduumuz" anlalyor. Bu yzden, gemie dnk bir
hayflanmayla, "I wish I hadn't broken it," dememiz gerekiyordu. Bu konu, Kitabmzn 9. Blmnde
(the Subjunctives: Dilek Kipi) ele alnmaktadr...
Gl eldirici: Dier 4 kkn 4' de el aman, pek yaman... En iyisi, ngilizce edeerlerini veya Trke
evirilerini vereyim: (Tabii, bunlar da irdelemek iin, yine bknz. Blm 9)
a. A person who refused to eat would be dead within two or three months. = Suppose a person refused...
He would be dead... etc. (subjunctive yaplar)... Tut ki, diyelim ki, bir adam yemek yemeyi reddetse, bir
iki ay ierisinde lr...
b. What's the matter? You look as if you could do with a drink. = Haline baklacak olursa... Bir iki sana
iyi gelir gibi bir grnn var...
ten yorgun argn geldiniz, kendinizi koltua attnz. Ne dersiniz? "Oh, I'm exhausted! Oh, I could do
with a drink now!" = Ah, imdi bir iki olsa... Ah, imdi bir iki iebilirim ite... Ah, imdi bir iki bana
ne iyi gelir... (Trke'de present anlaml olmak zere "iebilirdim... iyi gelirdi" de diyebiliyoruz.)
c. Suppose he asked me for the money tomorrow! = Ya, yarn benden paray isteyecek olursa... Yukarda
szn ettiimiz "subjunctive" yaplardan...
23 c. He couldn't have arrived before the others, could he have? (yanl)
Sondaki "have" fazlalk... "... , could he?" der ve bitiririz...
Gl eldirici: e. Let's pretend we're not here, shall we? = Hadi burada deilmiiz numaras yapalm.
"Let us..." ile baladnz btn durumlarda, "olur mu? tamam m?" kuyruk sorusu (tag question) iin
standart olarak "shall we?" kullanrz: Let's go home now, shall we?
24 b. "I feel very sorry for you!" "Oh, you do, don't you?" (yanl)
Dorusu: "Oh, you do, do you?"...Anlam = "Yok yav... Sahi mi!"... Yani bu tip anlatmlar, bir az
eme, alaya alma anlam iletir...
Tabiatyla ok etin bir soru: Yanklamann, olumluysa olumsuz, olumsuzsa olumlu, yani tersine

"c" kk: "I'd go quite mad if I had to live with you!" "Oh, you would, would you?" = Yok yav, sahi mi?
Deme yav!...

"Yok yav, dinlemeyeceksin ha? Bal gibi dinleyeceksin ite..."
Aadaki tmce ise farkl bir kategoriden:
"d" kk: I say, come and see me tomorrow. Now, will you or will you not? = Bak, sana sylyorum: Gel
yarn beni gr. imdi, gelecek misin yoksa gelmeyecek misin? (srar veya tehdit)
25 a. "Have you got the tickets?" "Yes, I've got." (yanl)
Dorusu: "Yes, I have." veya Yes, I've got them." -- Trke'deki gibi, "Evet, aldm," deyip
brakamazsnz. Ksa yantla yetinmeyip, "get" fiilini de eklediinizde, geili bir fiil kullanyorsunuz;
hani bunun nesnesi nerede?
ngilizce'de, Trke'deki gibi, bir mekana girip, "I beat, I beat," diye grleyemezsiniz: "Dverim ha...
Dverim ha... " Mutlaka "I'll beat you up... I beat everyone," filan gibi bir belirleme eklemek
zorundasnz.
NOT: Nesnenin bariz, apak olduu durumlarda, geisiz fiiller nesne almayabilir: Bir sr bireyler
anlattnz; sonra soruyorsunuz: "Do you understand?" Yant da, "Yes, I do," veya "Yes, I understand..."
Peki, yukardaki "I beat," (eksik) tmcesinde hedefin kim olduu belli deil mi? -- Bizim dnce
tarzmza gre belli, ama ngiliz bizim gibi dnmek zorunda deil...
26 e. Isn't there anyone else time you can waste instead of mine? (yanl)
Dorusu: "anyone else's time" = bir bakas-nn zaman...
Gl eldirici: b. I wonder whose else would do instead.
= Acaba baka kiminkisi bu ii grrd?... "do", burada ie yaramak, yeterli olabilmek anlamnda.
Tabiatyla, "whose else" yerine, "who else" yaps da doru olurdu. Ama ok farkl bir anlam kazanarak:
"Who else would do it instead?" Yani, Bu ii baka kim yapabilir?...
27 d. I'm looking forward to see you tomorrow. (yanl)
Yukardaki onca zalim sorudan sonra ok kolay gelmitir sanrm. Dorusu: "looking forward to seeing
you"...
Deyim ve formlnz: to look forward to + Ving...
Gl eldirici: c. I object to being pushed around.
= Oraya buraya itilip kaklmaktan hi holanmam... "object to" kalb Ving (gerund - adeylem) alr.
Burada "to be pushed around" pasif fiilinin "gerund" halini kullanyoruz...
28 c. I surprised to hear such words from you. (yanl)

"I am surprised..." -- Dikkat sorusu... Eminim ki burada hi glk ekmediniz.


"d" kknda, "to be supposed + mastar" kalba harfiyyen uyduk, ama bu kez de bir "continuous mastar"
kullandk.
29 e. It's a good thing that it has stopped to rain. (yanl)
Dorusu: "stopped raining"...
Aklama: "to stop" fiili, "durdurmak, kesmek, son vermek" geili (transitive) anlamn tadnda nesne
alr -- ve (eer bir eylemden sz edilecekse) nesne olarak o fiilin adeylem halini (gerund)alr:
Stop talking nonsense... Stop making that silly noise... Will you stop bothering me?!
"Durmak," ise geisiz (intransitive) bir kavramdr ve nesne almas szkonusu deildir. Buradaki "stop +
mastar" (infinitive) yapsndaki mastar ama belirtir:
We stopped on the way to have a hot drink... Half way through the forest, they stopped to get some rest...
Gl eldirici: d. I'm considering giving up smoking one of these days. -- "to consider" ve "to give up",
birer geili fiil olarak, kendilerinden sonra sz edilen eylemin ad-eylem "gerund" olmasn gerektir. Bu
nedenle, "-ing" (continuous tense + gerund + gerund) pepee dizildi...
30 c. I can't imagine why are you so angry with me. (yanl)
Dorusu: "...why you are...".
ASLA unutulmamas gereken kural: Btn bal (yan) tmcelikler (subordinate clauses) dztmce olmak
zorundadr. Ad-, sfat- veya belirte-tmcelik soru dzeninde olamaz...
"d" kkna taklp da, "tmce ilge ile bitirilemez" trnden sama kurallar savunanlara hi kulak
