-masından irəli gələn

Arising from an Event

Level 5

The construction -masından irəli gələn is used in formal Azerbaijani to link a result (like a duty, problem, or right) to its origin. It functions as an adjective modifying a noun.

How It Works

In formal, legal, and academic Azerbaijani, -masından irəli gələn is the standard way to describe consequences that 'flow' from a source.

1. Structure:
The pattern is built as follows:

  • Verb Stem + -ma/-mə (nominalizer)
  • + -sı/-si/-su/-sü (3rd person possessive)
  • + -n- (buffer consonant)
  • + -dan/-dən (ablative case 'from')
  • + irəli gələn (participle meaning 'arising/coming forward')

2. Usage:
It acts as a modifier for a following noun. For example, in the phrase 'responsibilities arising from the contract,' the 'arising from the contract' part uses this pattern to modify 'responsibilities.'

3. Register:
This is a high-register construction. You will encounter it in:

  • Legal contracts (e.g., damages arising from a breach).
  • Official decrees (e.g., duties arising from a new law).
  • Academic writing (e.g., problems arising from a specific theory).

4. Nuance:
Unlike simple causal markers like çünki or görə, this pattern implies a direct, inherent link where the result is a natural or legal derivation of the cause.

Examples (4)

  1. Müqavilənin pozulmasından irəli gələn ziyan ödənilməlidir.

    The damage arising from the breach of the contract must be compensated.

    Word by Word: Contract's breaking-from arising damage must-be-paid.

    Here, the pattern modifies 'ziyan' (damage), identifying the breach of contract as the legal source of that damage.

  2. Qanunvericilikdəki boşluqlardan irəli gələn problemlər müzakirə olundu.

    The problems stemming from the gaps in the legislation were discussed.

    Word by Word: Legislation-in gaps-from arising problems discussed were.

    This shows the pattern used with a plural noun (boşluqlardan) to indicate the origin of a set of problems.

  3. Yeni sərəncamdan irəli gələn vəzifələr icra edilir.

    The duties arising from the new decree are being implemented.

    Word by Word: New decree-from arising duties implementation are-being-done.

    In this case, the pattern is used with a simple noun (sərəncamdan) rather than a verbal noun, which is also common in formal contexts.

  4. Tərəflərin öhdəliklərindən irəli gələn hüquqlar qorunur.

    The rights arising from the obligations of the parties are protected.

    Word by Word: Parties' obligations-from arising rights are-protected.

    This demonstrates that the pattern can refer to positive things like 'rights' (hüquqlar), not just problems.

Common Mistakes

  • Using the Dative case instead of the Ablative case.

    Müqavilənin pozulmasına irəli gələn ziyan...
    Müqavilənin pozulmasından irəli gələn ziyan...

    The phrasal verb 'irəli gəlmək' (to arise/stem) strictly requires the source to be in the ablative case (-dan/-dən).

  • Omitting the possessive suffix in the verbal noun chain.

    Pozulmadan irəli gələn ziyan...
    Pozulmasından irəli gələn ziyan...

    In standard Azerbaijani, the possessive suffix (-sı/-si) is required to treat the action as a specific event from which something arises.
