beklenenler

Beklenenler is a Turkish plural noun formed from beklenen, the past participle of beklemek (to wait or to expect), with the plural suffix -ler. It literally means “the ones who are expected” or “the expected ones” and is used to refer to people or things anticipated in a given context. The term commonly appears in journalism, literature, and everyday speech to denote groups of individuals or items foreseen by observers, audiences, or participants.

Form and usage: Beklenenler functions as a noun phrase. It can be modified by determiners or adjectives, and it can appear in phrases such as en çok beklenenler (the most anticipated ones) or beklenenler arasında (among the expected ones). It is often used to mark anticipation or expectation about a future event, performance, outcome, or selection.

Examples:

- Beklenenler sahneye çıktı. (The expected ones took the stage.)

- Bu sonuç, beklenenler arasındadır. (This result is among the expected ones.)

- Projede beklenenler, zamanında teslim edildi. (The expected deliverables were delivered on time.)

Nuance: Beklenenler emphasizes an element of public or observer-based anticipation and is typically used in neutral or analytical contexts. It contrasts with terms like gerçekleşenler (the actual outcomes) to distinguish between what was expected and what occurred.
