BASE Atlayışı


Explanation:
BASE terimi, building, antenna, span ve earth kelimelerinin baş harflerinden türetilmiş bir kısaltma imiş. Bu sebeple bence iki seçenek var: ya olduğu şekilde bırakılır ve istenirse parantez içerisinde Türkçe olarak açılım verilir, örn. BASE (Bina, Anten, Açıklık, Kayalık) Atlayışı, ya da Kısaltma da Türkçe'de kullanılacak kelimelere göre uyarlanabilir, örn. BAAK (Bina, Anten, Açıklık, Kayalık) Atlayışı.
