ebat

Ebat is a Turkish noun meaning size, dimensions, or extent. It is used to describe the overall measurements of an object, typically referring to length, width, and height, rather than to a specific unit of measurement. Ebat is a general term for the scale or footprint of something.

In usage, ebat appears in technical, commercial, and everyday language. It is common in product specifications, packaging, architecture, printing, textiles, and manufacturing to state an item’s ebat. For example, a sheet of paper might be described as having an ebat of 21x29.7 cm (A4), or a panel as having an ebat of 60x120 cm. Ebat is often contrasted with other terms such as boyut (dimension or size more broadly), ölçü (measurement), or genişlik and yükseklik (width and height), though the terms can be used somewhat interchangeably in casual speech.

Etymologically, ebat is a Turkish word with long-standing usage in formal and commercial registers, including Ottoman and modern Turkish. It does not denote a fixed unit; instead, it designates the category of measurement applied to an object. In practice, ebat is paired with the relevant dimensions (length, width, height) or with a single value for rectangular items, and is frequently found in catalogs, technical drawings, and product listings.
