Ödenecek

ödenecek is a Turkish term formed from the verb ödemek (to pay) and the future participle suffix -ecek. It functions as a participial adjective meaning “to be paid” or “payable.” In usage, ödenecek describes something that is due to be paid in the future, such as a debt, fee, or bill. It is commonly employed in formal or administrative language, including contracts, invoices, and financial documents.

Grammatically, ödenecek is a fiil fiil (participial) form with a passive meaning: the action of paying is expected to be performed by someone else. It is typically used attributively to modify a noun, for example with tutar (amount), miktar (sum), or fatura (invoice). In practice, the equivalent phrases often found in everyday Turkish include ödenecek tutar or ödenecek miktar, meaning “the amount payable.” The form contrasts with ödenen (paid) and with ödeyecek (will pay, active future).

Common usage notes:

- Ödenecek denotes the future obligation to pay, not the act of paying itself.

- In more explicit formulations, speakers may use ödenmesi gereken or ödenmesi gereken tutar to stress obligation, though ödenecek is common in more concise contexts.

- While often used in financial or legal texts, it can appear in any context where a payment is anticipated.

Examples:

- Bu faturada ödenecek toplam tutar 1.250 TL’dir.

- Ödenecek tutar banka hesabına yatırılacaktır.

- Kira için ödenecek miktar aylık olarak belirlenmiştir.

Ödenecek is not a verb; it is a non-finite form used adjectivally to convey future payment obligation. Related terms include ödenen (paid) and ödeyecek (will pay).
