Acil Durumlar

Turizm sektöründe ister konaklama tesislerinde ister lokanta, restoran gibi yemek hizmeti sunan tesislerde olsun amaç konukları en iyi şekilde ağırlamak ve onların ihtiyaçlarını karşılamaktır.

A Look at the Language

İngilizcede kullanılan yardımcı fiillerin kullanım alanları geniş bir yelpazeye yayılır. Yardımcı fiiller çoklukla yetebilmek, olasılık, gereklilik veya tahmin belirten yapılarda kullanılır. Bu ünitede ‘could have’ ve ‘must have’ yapıları üzerinde daha ayrıntılı ek bilgi vermeye çalışıyoruz.

I. Could have +V3

Could have +V3 yapısı, can yardımcı fiilinin have yardımcı fiili ve fiilin üçüncü çekimi yani past participle çekimi ile kullanılan bir yapıdır.

Could have V3 is used to talk about something that we are able to do but did not do. Sometimes this meaning also includes criticism.

I could have studied more for my exam.(but I did not)

Could have V3 yapısını yapabileceğimiz halde yapmadığımız eylemleri anlatmak için kullarınız. Bazı durumlarda bu yapılarda bir eleştiri fikri de bulunur.

Could have V3 is used to guess about something that has happened. They could have seen the thief. (we are not sure)

He could have heard us speak about him.(we are not sure)

Could have V3 ortaya çıkan olmuş bir olay hakkında fikir yürütmek veya tahmin etmek için kullanılır.

Could have V3 is used to guess about something that did not happen. You could have failed your exam. (but you did not) You could have run over by the bus when you ran after it. (but you didnot)

Could have V3 is used to talk about something that is possible to happen in present time or past time.

It’s 6 o’clock. The train could have arrived by now. She could have arrived two hours ago.

Could have yapısı gerek şimdiki zamanda gerekse geçmiş zamanda olasılıklardan söz etmek için kullanılır.

Örneklerimizde olduğu gibi, “Saat 6, şimdiye kadar tren gelmiş olmalı.”

II. Must + have + V3

Did you feel earth quake?

No. It must have been in the middle of the night. (because I did not wake up)

Must have V3 kalıbı elimizdeki verilere dayanarak bir fikir veya tahmin yürüttüğümüzde başvurabileceğimiz bir yapıdır.

III. Should + have + V3

Örnekte de görebileceğiniz gibi should have V3 geçmişteki olaylardan bahsederken kullanılıyor. Ancak, bu olayların özelliği hiç gerçekleşmemiş olmaları.

I should have cleaned my room. (but I did not)

Should have V3 olasılıklardan bahsetmek için kullanılıyor. Tıpkı could have V3 kalıbında olduğu gibi gelecek veya geçmiş zamanda tahmin yapmak için kullanılır.

Our meal should have arrived by now. I think we will get it soon.

Should have V3 ve bu yapının olumsuz hali should not have V3 pişmanlık belirtebilir.

I should not have been late. I am sorry.
