Kapasitemiz

Kapasitemiz is a Turkish-language possessive noun phrase meaning “our capacity” or “our capability.” It is formed from the noun kapasite, meaning capacity, plus the first-person plural possessive suffix -imiz, which yields kapasitemiz. In Turkish phonology the combination preserves the root’s final vowel and adds the linking vowel that appears in the suffix, producing the common form kapasitemiz.

Etymology and form: Kapasite is a loanword from French capacité, adapted into Turkish as kapasite. The suffix -imiz marks “our” and is attached to the stem without altering the root’s core meaning. The word is not a standalone noun with a fixed independent meaning; instead, it functions as a possessive noun phrase that denotes the capacity available to a group including the speaker. Its usage mirrors other possessed nouns in Turkish, such as evimiz (our house) or ekiplerimiz (our teams).

Usage and examples: Kapasitemiz is used to discuss collective resources or abilities of a group. For example, kapasitemiz bu proje için yeterli değildir means “Our capacity is not sufficient for this project.” Another example is kapasitemiz bu ay için mevcut kaynaklarla sınırlı, meaning “Our capacity for this month is limited by available resources.” In formal or corporate Turkish, kapasitemiz can appear in statements about planning, production, or capability assessment.
