Okay, the user wants me to translate "kick-started" into Turkish. Let me think about the correct translation.
First, "kick-started" is a verb in past tense, meaning to start something, especially something that's difficult to start. In Turkish, the equivalent would be "başlatmak" or "çalışmaya başlamak". But since it's past tense, I need to adjust the verb form.
The phrase "kick-started" can also be translated as "başlatmak" in Turkish. However, depending on context, there might be nuances. For example, if it's about starting a project, "başlatmak" is appropriate. If it's about a machine or engine, maybe "çalıştırmak" could work too. But the most direct translation for "kick-started" would be "başlatmak" in past tense.
Wait, the user mentioned that if the content is already in Turkish, leave it as is. But "kick-started" is English, so I need to translate it. The correct Turkish translation for "kick-started" would be "başlatıldı" or "başlatmak". However, "kick-started" is more of a phrasal verb, so maybe "başlatmak" is the base verb. But the user wants the translation of the word "kick-started", which is a past participle.
In Turkish, the past tense of "başlatmak" is "başlattı". But "kick-started" is more like "başlatmak" in the sense of initiating something. Alternatively, "çalışmaya başlamak" could be another way. However, the most accurate single-word translation would be "başlatmak". But since it's past tense, maybe "başlatıldı" is better. Wait, but the user might be looking for the verb form, not the passive.
Hmm, maybe "başlatmak" is the correct translation here. Let me confirm. If I search for "kick-started in Turkish", some sources might use "başlatmak" or "çalışmaya başlamak". But the most direct translation would be "başlatmak". However, considering the context of starting something, "başlatmak" is the right choice. So the translation should be "başlatmak".
