yapamazlar

Yapamazlar is Turkish a verb form meaning they cannot do or they are unable to do something in the present tense. It is the negative, third-person plural form of the verb yapmak (to do, to make). The word combines the verb root yap- with the negative suffix -maz and the third-person plural personal ending -lar, yielding yapmazlar, literally “they do not do” in a sense of inability.

Grammatical details: The form is built from the stem yap- and the negative suffix -maz, which expresses inability or impossibility, followed by the plural subject ending -lar. Because the subject is encoded in the suffix, no separate subject pronoun is required. This construction typically conveys a general or habitual incapability rather than a one-time failure.

Usage: Yapmazlar is used to describe groups who are unable to perform a task. It appears in declarative sentences and can be adapted for questions or emphasis with usual Turkish syntax. Examples include: Onlar bu işi yapamazlar. (They cannot do this job.) Çocuklar bu oyunu yapamazlar. (The children cannot play this game.) Şu ekipmanla bu görevi yapamazlar. (With this equipment, they cannot complete the task.)

Related forms: The affirmative form yapabilirler means “they can do,” while yapamıyorlar expresses “they are not able to do (right now)” or “they cannot do (at the moment).” The negative form for other persons uses corresponding endings, such as yapmazlar (they do not do) or yapmazsınız (you do not do). Yapamazlar is a standard, neutral grammatical construction in Turkish.
