verilebilmesi

Verilebilmesi is a Turkish linguistic term that denotes the possibility or feasibility of the act of giving. It is formed from the verb vermek (to give) with the combination of passive and potential suffixes, yielding verilebilmek (to be able to be given) and its nominalized form verilebilmesi, meaning “the possibility of being given” or “the ability to be given.”

Morphology and usage notes: The construction follows a chain: ver- (root) + il (passive), +ebil (ability/possibility), +mek (infinitive) to form verilebilmek, and then -mesi (or -mEsI) to nominalize it as verilebilmesi. As a noun, verilebilmesi can serve as the subject or object within a sentence and is commonly used in formal, technical, or legal Turkish to discuss whether a transfer, grant, or permission can be made. It contrasts with verbs like verilmesi (the act of being given) or verilebilirlik (a related noun meaning general feasibility).

Relation to other terms: Verilebilmesi is closely related to verilebilmek and verilebilirlik, both conveying potentiality in the context of giving. The choice among these forms depends on the intended nuance: possibility, capability, or the general feasibility of an act.

Example usage:

- Bu yardımların verilebilmesi için uygunluk şartlarının sağlanması gerekir. (In order for these aids to be possible to be granted, the eligibility conditions must be met.)

- İmkanlar değerlendirildiğinde verilebilmesinin görece sınırlı olduğu görülebilir. (When options are evaluated, the feasibility of being granted is relatively limited.)
