önermektedir

Önermektedir is a Turkish verb form derived from the verb öner- (to propose, to suggest) and is used in a formal, often academic context to indicate that a subject states a proposition or puts forward a claim. The suffix -mektedir attaches to the verb stem to convey a present continuous or ongoing action in a formal register. In practice, it functions much like the English “states that” or “proposes that,” signaling that the content following it expresses what the author or subject asserts.

In usage, önermektedir appears with a subject that carries the proposition, frequently an author, a study, a report, or a scholarly argument. It is common in scientific, policy, and analytical writing to present conclusions, hypotheses, or recommendations as propositions rather than as informal judgments. Because of its formal tone, it is often preferred over simpler verbs like önerir (proposes) or iddia eder (claims) when the text aims to maintain a neutral, evidence-based stance.

Examples of usage include sentences such as: “Bu çalışma, hipotezin doğruluğunu test etmenin gerekliliğini önermektedir.” or “Rapor, yeni politika uygulanmasının faydalarını önermektedir.” These constructions emphasize that the propositions are grounded in argumentation or analysis and are intended to be considered as part of a broader scholarly or formal argument.
