alınıp

"Alınıp" means "being taken" or "taken" in English.

In a sentence

  • Kitap raftan alınıp masaya konuldu.

    The book was taken from the shelf and placed on the table.

    Here, 'alınıp' is used as the passive participle form of the verb 'almak' (to take), combining with '-ıp' to imply 'and then'. It indicates that after the action of taking the book, another action follows.

  • Çiçekler bahçeden alınıp vazoya yerleştirildi.

    The flowers were picked from the garden and arranged in the vase.

    In this sentence, 'alınıp' again conveys the meaning of a passive sequential action, where flowers are taken and then placed elsewhere (the vase).

  • Defter alınıp öğrenciye teslim edildi.

    The notebook was picked up and handed to the student.

    Here, 'alınıp' describes sequential actions in passive voice, where the first action (taking the notebook) sets context for the main event (delivering it).
