polimerdir

Polimerdir is a Turkish term used to indicate that a substance is a polymer. It is formed by combining the noun polimer (polymer) with the copular suffix -dir, following Turkish vowel harmony. This produces a predicative form that asserts the class membership of the subject.

In Turkish, the copula -dir attaches to noun stems to form a present-tense predicate "to be" about the third person singular. The word polimerdir is typically not used as a stand-alone label; it appears within sentences such as Bu madde polimerdir (This substance is a polymer). The term emphasizes classification rather than describing structural details.

Polimerdir contrasts with other forms such as polimer olmak (to be a polymer) in more formal or descriptive contexts. The word is used mainly in educational or linguistic discussions about Turkish morphology rather than in everyday laboratory communication. The underlying concept is the same as the English predicate "is a polymer," but Turkish morphosyntax shapes it as a single word within a sentence.

Related terms include polimer (polymer), monomer (monomer), and polimerizasyon (polymerization). In Turkish scientific texts, polimerdir may appear alongside labels such as "polimerdir olan madde" or in glossed linguistic examples.
