bakiye

When discussing financial matters or accounts, 'bakiye' refers to the amount of money remaining, often in a bank account or after a transaction. It's the residual value after deductions or payments.

For instance, you might check your 'hesap bakiyesi' (account balance) to see how much money you have. It can also be used in a more general sense to mean the remaining portion of something, though its primary use is financial.

Understanding 'bakiye' is crucial for managing finances and comprehending financial statements in Turkish, enabling you to clearly communicate about remaining funds or amounts.

Let's talk about the Turkish word 'bakiye'. This word is super useful in everyday situations, especially when you're dealing with money or anything that has a remaining amount. Think of it like 'balance' or 'remainder' in English. It's a B1 level word, so it's good to get comfortable with it.

§ What 'bakiye' means

Definition
balance, remainder

'Bakiye' is a noun, and it refers to what's left over. This could be money in your bank account, the remaining amount of a bill you need to pay, or even the rest of a quantity of something. It's pretty straightforward.

§ Common ways to use 'bakiye'

You'll mostly hear 'bakiye' in financial contexts. Let's look at some common phrases and how they work.

Bank Account Balance
When you want to know how much money you have in your bank account, you'll use 'hesap bakiyesi'.

Hesap bakiyemi öğrenmek istiyorum. (I want to learn my account balance.)

Remaining Debt/Amount
If you're talking about an outstanding amount or debt, you can say 'kalan bakiye' or simply 'bakiye'.

Faturanın bakiyesini ödedim. (I paid the balance of the bill.)

Borcun bakiyesi ne kadar? (How much is the balance of the debt?)

§ 'Bakiye' with prepositions (or rather, suffixes!)

In Turkish, we don't use separate prepositions like 'of', 'in', or 'to' as much as English does. Instead, we attach suffixes directly to the noun. Let's see how this works with 'bakiye'.

  • Genitive (-in, -ın, -ün, -un): This suffix shows possession, like 'of' in English.

Hesabın bakiyesi düşük. (The balance of the account is low.)

  • Dative (-e, -a): This suffix indicates direction, like 'to' or 'for'.

Kalan bakiyeye dikkat edin. (Pay attention to the remaining balance.)

  • Locative (-de, -da): This suffix means 'in' or 'at'.

Kredi kartında yeterli bakiye var mı? (Is there enough balance on the credit card?)

  • Ablative (-den, -dan): This suffix means 'from'.

Bakiyeden biraz çekmek istiyorum. (I want to withdraw a little from the balance.)

§ More example sentences with 'bakiye'

Practice makes perfect! Here are a few more sentences to help you get the hang of 'bakiye'.

Telefon faturamdaki bakiye ne kadar? (How much is the balance on my phone bill?)

Hesabımda yeterli bakiye yok. (I don't have enough balance in my account.)

Bu kartın bakiyesi sıfır. (The balance of this card is zero.)

See? It's not too tricky. The key is to remember that 'bakiye' almost always relates to what's left over, usually financially. Keep practicing these sentences, and you'll be using 'bakiye' like a pro in no time!

Wichtige Grammatik

Possessive suffixes change based on the vowel harmony of the last vowel in the noun. For 'bakiye' (ending in -e, a front vowel), the possessive suffix for 'my balance' is '-m'.

Benim bakiyem (My balance)

The locative case suffix '-de / -da' (at/in/on) is used to indicate where the balance is. For 'bakiye', because it ends in a vowel, a buffer consonant 'n' is inserted before the suffix, and the suffix itself follows vowel harmony rules. Since 'bakiye' ends in 'e', the suffix is '-de'.

Hesabımda bakiye var mı? (Is there a balance in my account?)

The ablative case suffix '-den / -dan' (from) is used to indicate 'from the balance'. Similar to the locative case, a buffer consonant 'n' is inserted for 'bakiye'. Since 'bakiye' ends in 'e', the suffix is '-den'.

Bakiyeden çekmek istiyorum. (I want to withdraw from the balance.)

To form the plural of 'bakiye', the suffix '-ler / -lar' is added. For 'bakiye', because the last vowel is 'e', the plural suffix is '-ler'.

Bankanın bakiyeleri (The bank's balances)

The accusative case suffix '-i / -ı / -ü / -u' (the direct object marker) is used when the balance is the definite direct object of a verb. For 'bakiye', since it ends in a vowel, a buffer consonant 'y' is inserted before the suffix, and the suffix follows vowel harmony rules. Since 'bakiye' ends in 'e', the suffix is '-yi'.

Bakiyeyi kontrol ettim. (I checked the balance.)

Wird oft verwechselt mit

bakiye vs Kalan

While 'kalan' also means 'remaining' or 'the rest', it's a more general term and doesn't inherently imply a financial or countable balance like 'bakiye' does. 'Kalan' can refer to physical objects, time, etc.

bakiye vs Artık

'Artık' can mean 'leftover' or 'no longer' depending on context. When it refers to leftovers, it's typically about physical remnants (e.g., food scraps) rather than a calculated balance.

bakiye vs Geriye kalan

Similar to 'kalan', 'geriye kalan' means 'that which remains' or 'the remainder'. It's broader than 'bakiye' and can refer to various remaining things, not just account balances.
