getirebilir

Getirebilir is a Turkish finite verb form that expresses possibility or ability to bring something. It is formed from the verb getir- (to bring) with the potential suffix -ebil- and the present tense ending -ir, resulting in getir-ebil-ir, written as getirebilir. In use, Turkish person and number endings attach to this form just as with other verbs (for example, me, sin, iz, ler endings).

Conjugation and examples: I can bring is getirebilirim; you can bring is getirebilirsin; he/she/it can bring is getirebilir; we can bring is getirebiliriz; you (plural) can bring is getirebilirsiniz; they can bring is getirebilirler. For questions, say getirebilir mi? For negation, examples include getiremeyebilir (may not be able to bring) or, in contexts where a general ability is negated, getiremez (cannot bring).

Usage and nuance: Getirebilir is used to indicate that bringing something is possible or within capability. It can appear in affirmative, negative, and interrogative clauses, and it often appears in conditional or hypothetical constructions, such as Eğer bunu getirebilirsen… (If you can bring this…). It is distinct from the plain present getirir, which merely states a habitual or factual action rather than potential ability.

Relation and alternatives: The infinitive form expressing the same idea is getirebilmek (to be able to bring). The base verb is getir-, and getirmek means to bring; getirebilir sits within a family of forms built with the -ebil/-abil paradigm to express possibility.
