Possessive Pronouns
Personal posessive pronouns:
my ben-im my noun ben-im noun-im
your sen-in your noun sen-in noun-in
his o-n-un his o-n-un noun-i
her her | noun
its its /
Notice his/her/its is o-n-un instead of o-un. Since two vowels don´t come together in Turkish, one
fusion consonant is added in between. It is ´n´ in this case. Either a fusion consonant is added in
between, or one of the vowels is dropped whenever a vowel is followed by another vowel. Which
technique must be used changes among different rules, but it is consistent in a single rule. This will
be mentioned in different lessons when necessary.
ev --> house
my house --> ben-im ev-im --> evim (personal pronoun is implied)
your house --> sen-in ev-in --> evin
his/her/its house --> o-n-in ev-i --> onun evi --> evi
our house --> biz-im ev-imiz --> evimiz
your house --> siz-in ev-iniz --> eviniz
their house --> onlar-ın ev-leri --> evleri
For nouns other than these pronouns, always the third person form is used.
Gizem´s house --> Gizem´in evi
Gizem´s car --> Gizem´in arabası
My mother´s house --> Annemin evi
For nouns other than these pronouns, always the third person form is used.
For nouns other than these pronouns, always the third person form is used.
The room of the house --> Evin odası
Cat´s food --> Kedinin yeme!i
Reflexive Pronouns
The way reflexive pronouns are constructed in Turkish is very similar to the way we do it in English.
The Turkish word for self is kendi. The reflexive pronouns hence are as follows:

@ Irusya , you´re right it´s should be " senin kitabın " ; maybe it´s a Report
mistake because the last vowel in this word is an " a " ---> " Kalın ünlüler (+3)
" so it couldn´t be " senin Kitabin " because the letter " i " is ---> " ince
ünlüler "
