This is the 17197th most frequent Turkish word.
ödedi
"Ödedi" means "he/she/it paid" in English.
Here, 'ödedi' (the past tense form of the verb 'ödemek', meaning 'to pay') is used to describe an action of payment that has been completed in the past.
Ali dün bakkalda alışveriş yaptıktan sonra ürünü nakit olarak ödedi.
Ali paid for the product in cash after shopping at the grocery store yesterday.
In this example, 'ödedi' reflects the completion of an online transaction, emphasizing the use of 'ödemek' in a digital payment context.
Ayşe sinema biletlerini online sistemi üzerinden kredi kartıyla ödedi.
Ayşe paid for the cinema tickets using her credit card through the online system.
'Ödedi', though resembling 'ödemek', actually does not fit correctly in this context; hence, it demonstrates the importance of proper word choice. Instead of 'ödedi', 'verildi' (was given) would be appropriate here. This showcases a common error and serves as a teaching point.
