artabilir

Artabilir is a Turkish verb form meaning "may increase" or "could increase." It is the potential mood of the verb artmak (to increase), formed with the suffix -abilir/-abilir. The form is used when discussing a rise that is not certain.

The morphology: The stem art- combines with -abilir to yield artabilir. This construction indicates possibility rather than definite change. It agrees with the person and number of the subject through the overall verb phrase; for example artabilir (it may increase) and artabilirler (they may increase).

Usage: It is used to express probability or possibility in present or future contexts. It appears in forecasts, policy discussions, and everyday speech. Examples: Talep artabilir. Fiyatlar artabilir.

Related forms: Negation is artmayabilir (might not increase). Past potential forms include artabilirdi (could have increased). Questions use artabilir mi? and artabilirler mi? The Turkish potential mood is closely related to other modal constructions and does not correspond to a separate tense; context determines the intended meaning.
